Two types of modern sediment dispersal systems in the western Taiwan foreland basin: Sediment transfer from basin to basin

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A classical peripheral foreland basin is bounded longitudinally by a pair of marginal ocean basins (DeCelles & Giles, 1996). The WTFB sediments transfer to adjacent marginal ocean basins. The western Taiwan foreland basin (WTFB) is regarded as a classical peripheral foreland basin, longitudinally bounded by the southern Okinawa Trough (SOT) to the ...

Osteohistological characterization of notosuchian osteoderms: Evidence for an overlying thick leathery layer of skin

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 284, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
The perpendicular insertion of Sharpey's fibers in the external cortex suggests the presence of a thick leathery skin layer overlying notosuchian osteoderms. Although intramembranous ossification is the main process involved in the development of crocodyliform osteoderms, we reported a case of metaplastic development.

Lacustrine and fan‐delta sediments in syn‐rift lake basins

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A consistent model for the sequence framework and depositional pattern of asymmetric half‐grabens in syn‐rift lake basins bounded by active faults has been established, complementing existing models for marine rift successions. Syn‐rift lake basins are characterised by relatively small dimensions, steep slopes, poorly developed shoreline strata ...

Multi‐proxy reconstruction of the Holocene vegetation and land use dynamics in the Julian Alps, north‐west Slovenia

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 107-122, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Small mountain lakes are natural archives for understanding long‐term natural and anthropogenic impact on the environment. This study focused on long‐term (last ca. 13 000 years) vegetation changes and sedimentary processes in the catchment area of Lake Planina pri jezeru (1430 m a.s.l.) by using mineralogical, geochemical and palynological ...

Genesis and reservoir preservation mechanism of 10 000‐m ultradeep dolomite in Chinese craton basin

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Potential exploration target stratum of 10 000‐m ultradeep dolomite in Sichuan Basin and Tarim Basin, China. Abstract The 10 000‐m ultradeep dolomite reservoir holds significant potential as a successor field for future oil and gas exploration in China's marine craton basin.

Petrogenetic and geochemical characteristics of some auriferous granitoids in the Kumasi Basin, Ghana: Implications for geodynamic settings and controls of orogenic gold mineralization in the Edikan Gold Mine

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The Fobinso granitoids are granodiorites, while the Esuajah granitoids are granites based on their mineralogical composition. The granitoids are generally enriched in LILE and LREE than HFSE, MREE, and HREE, indicating mixing with crustal sources during their evolution.

Optimal mud pressure design using nonlinear failure criteria for wellbores in shaley sedimentary reservoir

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The present study uses the Modified Mohr‐Coulomb true‐triaxial failure criterion (MMC_TT), which predicts the strength of rock better than the MGC criterion in laboratory true‐triaxial tests to overcome the limitations. Moreover, based on the data from previously published five vertical wells in the Krishna‐Godavari basin (K‐G basin), an empirical ...

The steepest watershed: from graphs to images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
The watershed is a powerful tool for segmenting objects whose contours appear as crest lines on a gradient image. The watershed transform associates to a topographic surface a partition into catchment basins, defined as attraction zones of a drop of water falling on the relief and following a line of steepest descent.
