Mangarara Formation: exhumed remnants of a middle Miocene, temperate carbonate, submarine channel-fan system on the eastern margin of Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2009 The middle Miocene Mangarara Formation is a thin (1–60 m), laterally discontinuous unit of moderately to highly calcareous (40–90%) facies of sandy to pure limestone, bioclastic sandstone, and conglomerate that crops out in a few valleys in North ...

Turbidites, Topography and Tectonics: Evolution of submarine channel-lobe systems in the salt-influenced Kwanza Basin, offshore Angola [PDF]
Basin Research, 2020 Abstract Understanding the evolution of submarine channel‐lobe systems on salt‐influenced slopes is challenging as these systems react to subtle, syn‐depositional changes in sea‐floor topography. The impact of large blocking structures on individual deep‐water systems is well documented, but our understanding of the spatial and ...

Submarine channel and lobe hidden inside mass-transport deposits in the northern Gulf of Mexico
Results in Geophysical Sciences, 2021 Abstract Despite numerous subsurface studies of mass-transport deposits (MTDs) using seismic data, internal characters of MTDs at the seismic scale are still not well understood, largely because of the limitation of seismic resolution. This study investigates Miocene-Pliocene MTDs in an understudied, hydrocarbon-rich region of the northern Gulf of ...

Submarine fans: A critical retrospective (1950–2015)
Journal of Palaeogeography, 2016 When we look back the contributions on submarine fans during the past 65 years (1950–2015), the empirical data on 21 modern submarine fans and 10 ancient deep-water systems, published by the results of the First COMFAN (Committee on FANs) Meeting (Bouma ...

Development and Emplacement of Ana Slide, Eivissa Channel, Western Mediterranean Sea
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 Submarine landslides can destroy seafloor infrastructures and generate devastating tsunamis. In spite of decades of research into the functioning of submarine landslides there are still numerous open questions, in particular how different phases of ...

The Carboniferous Southern Pennine Basin, UK [PDF]
, 2014 Many of the Carboniferous outcrops located in the Derbyshire region of the Peak District National Park, UK, have provided sites for both significant and pioneering research relating to the clastic sedimentology of marine palaeoenvironments, particularly ...

Be concrete to be comprehended:consistent imageability effects in semantic dementia for nouns, verbs, synonyms and associates [PDF]
, 2013 There are two contrasting views on the nature of comprehension impairment in semantic dementia: (a) that it stems from degradation of a pan-modal " hub" that represents core conceptual knowledge or (b) that it results from degradation of modality ...
