A novel lycopsid from the upper Devonian of Jiangsu, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A new lycopsid, Monilistrobus yixingensis gen. et sp. nov., is described from the Wutung Formation (Famennian, Upper Devonian) of Jiangsu, China. The plant has many features typical of other Upper Devonian lycopsids, including dichotomous branching ...

Quantitative approach by miospores of the Devonian-Carboniferous transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The abundance of selected species at geological scale has been noted to be a useful criterium to correlate sedimentary sequences. In this work, we take as an example two groups of species, the lepidophyta and pusillites, which are noted to characterize ...

Salt dissolution tectonism and origin of lacustrine carbonate beds: Mn‐Fe‐calcite and Mn‐siderite micro‐spherulite fabrics of the Lower Cretaceous McMurray Formation, Athabasca Oil Sands deposit, western Canada

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2022
Several lacustrine carbonate beds, each a metre‐thick interval of densely packed Mn‐rich sideritic micro‐spherulites or Mn‐rich ferroan calcite micro‐spherulites, are recorded for the first time within strata of the Lower Cretaceous McMurray Formation of

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Famennian (Upper Devonian) calcimicrobial (Renalcis) reef at Miaomen, Guilin, Guangxi, South China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Famennian (Upper Devonian) reefs represent a calcimicrobial and stromatolitic reef framework with a few skeleton-dominated (stromatoporoid) examples after the skeletal metazoans in reef ecosystems were impacted on a global scale by the Frasnian-Famennian

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

Sedimentological analysis and hydrocarbon potential of the upper devonian-lower carboniferous Tahara sandstones, ghadames basin, western Libya [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The Palaeozoic (Upper Devonian-Lower Carboniferous) Tahara Formation, western Libya, was deposited in shallow-water, marginal and nearshore marine environments influenced by waves and storms.

Rediscovery of the Type Specimens of the Sarcopterygian Fishes Onychodus sigmoides and Onychodus hopkinsi from the Devonian of Ohio, USA

open access: yesDiversity
John Strong Newberry described three species of the lobe-fin fish Onychodus (Osteichthyes, Sarcopterygii, Onychodontida) based on parasymphysial teeth, or tusks.

From Highlands to Henge: Refining the Provenance and Transport Pathways of Stonehenge's Altar Stone

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Altar Stone, the 6000 kg central sandstone megalith at Stonehenge in southern England, is suggested to have originated from the Orcadian Basin in northeast Scotland, some 700 km away. However, its source location within this large basin remains unresolved and its mode of transport uncertain.
