Deep-sea Ordovician lingulide brachiopods and their associated burrows suggest an early colonization of proximal turbidite systems [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Trace fossils from Ordovician deep-marine environments are typically produced by a shallow endobenthos adapted to live under conditions of food scarcity by means of specialized grazing, farming, and trapping strategies, preserved in low-energy ...

Sedimentary characteristics of turbidite fan and its implication for hydrocarbon exploration in Lower Congo Basin

open access: yesPetroleum Research, 2018
The turbidite is favorable for accumulation of oil and gas and it is the most important reservoir in the deepwater area of West Africa. Currently, some commercial discoveries in such the deepwater area generally belong to turbidite sandstone reservoirs ...

Bottom Current Modification of Turbidite Lobe Complexes

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Submarine lobes form at the distal end of sediment gravity flow systems and are globally important sinks for sediment, anthropogenic pollutants and organic carbon, as well as forming hydrocarbon and CO2 reservoirs.

Architecture of deepwater turbidite lobes: A case study of Carboniferous turbidite outcrop in the Clare Basin, Ireland

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2020
Through lithofacies analysis and architecture anatomy of the Carboniferous Ross Sandstone turbidites outcropped at western Ireland, the depositional model of deepwater turbidite lobes is established.

The Tachrift channel-levée turbidite complexes (Tortonian) of the Taza-Guercif basin (South Rifian Corridor, NE Morocco)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2020
This contribution reports on the field mapping of 9 exceptionally well-exposed channel-levée complexes from Taza–Guercif Basin (NE Morocco), belonging to the Late Miocene Tachrift turbidite system.

Orientations of Mistaken Point Fronds Indicate Morphology Impacted Ability to Survive Turbulence

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Ediacaran fossils of the Mistaken Point E surface have provided crucial insight into early animal communities, including how they reproduced, the importance of Ediacaran height and what the most important factors were to their community dynamics ...

Marcasite at the Permian‐Triassic Transition

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 377-399., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Submarine lobe deposits of the Point Loma Formation, California: Quantifying event‐bed architecture and lateral heterogeneity

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2021
Over the last several years, numerous outcrop localities have been revisited to add quantitative detail to submarine lobe facies models that previously focussed on facies relationships in a qualitative sense.

Submarine paleoseismology in the Japan Trench of northeastern Japan: turbidite stratigraphy and sedimentology using paleomagnetic and rock magnetic analyses

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023
Previous studies of sediments recovered from the Japan Trench between 37° 25′ N and 38° 30′ N document distinctive turbidite beds induced by huge earthquakes.

Possible Tsunami-Induced Sediment Transport From Coral Reef to Deep Sea Through Submarine Canyons on the Southern Ryukyu Forearc, Japan

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Submarine canyons are efficient sediment transport pathways from shallow marine areas to deep sea. Along active margins, large tsunamis are a trigger for sediment transport to deep sea.
