Geologists have long realized the important control of mechanical stratigraphy on fault nucleation, fault linkage and fault compartmentalization. However, uncertainties still exist concerning the mechanical heterogeneity of the stratigraphy because of ...

Stratigraphy of the central parts of the Palaeoproterozoic Tampere Schist Belt, southern Finland: review and revision [PDF]
The arc-type Palaeoproterozoic volcanic-sedimentary Tampere Schist Belt (TSB), close to the centre of the Svecofennian Orogen, comprises an E-W-striking major synform in its central parts.

The stratigraphy of Mars [PDF]
A detailed planetwide stratigraphy for Mars has been developed from global mapping based on Viking images and crater counting of geologic units. The original Noachian, Hesperian, and Amazonian Systems are divided into eight series corresponding to stratigraphic referents.

Regional stratigraphy of the Zagros fold-thrust belt of Iran and its proforeland evolution
The latest Neoproterozoic through Phanerozoic stratigraphy of the Zagros fold-thrust belt of Iran has been revised in the light of recent investigations. The revised stratigraphy consists of four groups of rocks, each composed of a number of unconformity-

A bothremydid turtle (Pleurodira) from the middle Cenomanian of Vale de Figueira (Belas, Portugal)
Abstract An unpublished turtle shell from the middle Cenomanian of Vale de Figueira, near Belas (Lisbon District, Portugal), is recognized by us as collected in 1880 under the direction of Carlos Ribeiro. No turtle remains from that region had so far been figured, described or discussed from a systematic point of view.

Abstract The effects of the Younger Dryas (YD) fluctuation on Late Pleistocene hunter‐gatherers' settlement and subsistence systems in the southern Alps are poorly known. This is primarily due to the scarcity of archaeological sites dating from the YD, in contrast with the extensive evidence available from the lateglacial interstadial and the early ...
