The Depositional Record, EarlyView.This volume examines tidal sedimentary systems through 11 articles, spanning ancient and modern tidalites, technological advances and implications for human management. Highlighting contributions from Tidalites 2022 and beyond, it underscores tidalites' significance in sedimentology, environmental forecasting and energy transition, reflecting decades ...

Bahaman patch reefs: Numerous and neglected
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Abstract Phanerozoic patch reefs are extensively studied because they are abundant and are potential reservoirs for valuable fluids. In contrast, geologic studies of modern reefs have largely focused on platform margins, leaving patch reefs comparatively neglected. What conditions favour patch‐reef development?

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 Rare metals, such as lithium and cobalt used in rechargeable batteries, have increased in value as demands for them escalates. Concentrations of lithium-bearing minerals are found in closed-basin brines, granitic pegmatites, and associated granitic rocks

A bird-like skull in a Triassic diapsid reptile increases heterogeneity of the morphological and phylogenetic radiation of Diapsida [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 The Triassic Period saw the first appearance of numerous amniote lineages (e.g. Lepidosauria, Archosauria, Mammalia) that defined Mesozoic ecosystems following the end Permian Mass Extinction, as well as the first major morphological diversification of ...

Water pathways and ancient lakes: Flowing towards new models to unravel the past
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Abstract Significant progress has been made in understanding lake basin evolution through climatic and tectonic changes using sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy, geochemistry, hydrology and watershed characteristics to interpret three main lake basin types: overfilled, balanced‐fill and underfilled, including fluvio‐lacustrine systems.

A new stem group echinoid from the Triassic of China leads to a revised macroevolutionary history of echinoids during the end-Permian mass extinction [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 The Permian–Triassic bottleneck has long been thought to have drastically altered the course of echinoid evolution, with the extinction of the entire echinoid stem group having taken place during the end-Permian mass extinction. The Early Triassic fossil

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.This study integrates sedimentological and ichnological data to reveal the depositional processes and environmental conditions of deep‐water muddy gravity flows in the Mobarak Formation. It highlights distinct ichnocoenoses and bioturbation patterns, offering insights into basin‐floor versus slope mudstones and their implications for hydrocarbon ...

Transactions of the Edinburgh Geological Society, 1894 1. There are few subjects in Geology more fascinating than the study of the physical features of the earth's surface in remote periods of its history. Such studies are perhaps usually successful when pressed no further back than Post-Tertiary or Pliocene time, since which in our islands, the development of their scenery has proceeded continuously on ...
