Linking Direct Measurements of Turbidity Currents to Submarine Canyon-Floor Deposits
Submarine canyons are conduits for episodic and powerful sediment density flows (commonly called turbidity currents) that move globally significant amounts of terrestrial sediment and organic carbon into the deep sea, forming some of the largest ...

Is comparability of C-14 dates an issue?: A status report on the fourth international radiocarbon intercomparison [PDF]
For more than 15 years, the radiocarbon community has participated in a series of laboratory intercomparisons in response to the issue of comparability of measurements as perceived within the wider user communities (Scott et al.

High-resolution palynological analysis in Lake Sapanca as a tool to detect recent earthquakes on the North Anatolian Fault [PDF]
High-resolution palynological analysis of a 38-cm-long core collected from Lake Sapanca, northwest Turkey, reveals large earthquakes that occurred during the second half of the 20th century along the North Anatolian Fault Zone. Four events have disturbed

Contractional kink bands formed by stress deflection along pre-existing anisotropies? Examples from the Anglo-Brabant Deformation Belt (Belgium) and the North Dobrogea Orogen (Romania) [PDF]
Kink bands within two slate belts, the Anglo-Brabant Deformation Belt (Belgium) and the North Dobrogea Orogen (Romania), reveal similar problems with respect to linking kink band geometries to expected palaeostress directions.

Notable Impact of Paleotectonic Stress on Gold Mineralisation in the West Qinling Orogen
By applying fuzzy clustering and multiple inverse methods, we systematically processed the data of vein and fault slip in this ore deposit to reveal the transition of orogenic geological environment and paleotectonic stress field. Our research results show two different stress states: the northwest–southeast extensional stress field and the northeast ...
