Biostratigraphy and Paleoenvironmental Analyses of Pleistocene NJ Shelf Sediments
The long-term goal of this project is to understand the patterns and timing of latest Pleistocene sedimentation in the Geoclutter area of the NJ margin. Paleoenvironmental reconstructions of the study area were developed using benthic foraminifera and sediment texture analyses of drill cores obtained in Fall 2002 using the ACHC-800 from the RV Knorr. This award was extended through October 31, ...
متن کاملConodonts and Biostratigraphy of Upper Ordovician Strata along a Shelf to Basin Transect in Central Nevada
Conodonts representing 38 species of 26 genera have been identified in samples from Upper Ordovician rocks at three central Nevada localities. Ranges of these species and associated graptolites are used graphically to determine correlation of the strata considered with an evolving composite standard that includes information from Ordovician strata at more than 100 localities in North America. R...
متن کاملFall-Winter Current Reversals on the Texas-Louisiana Continental Shelf
Fall-winter recurrence of current reversal from westward to eastward is identified on the Texas-Louisiana continental shelf using the current meter [Texas-Louisiana Shelf Physical Oceanography Program (LATEX-A)] and near surface drifting buoy [Surface Current and Lagrangian Drift Program (SCULP-1)] observations in 1993 and 1994. Reversal events roughly satisfy the Poisson distribution with one ...
متن کاملCross–Shelf Exchange Along the Antarctic Continental Margin: Modeling Results
The shelf areas around the Antarctic Continent are locations of dense water formation; part of these water masses ventilate the adjacent deep ocean basins and enter the global thermohaline circulation. This paper takes a look at regional differences of shelf sea–deep ocean exchange in high southern latitudes (mainly between the Weddell and Ross Seas), highlights a few physical mechanisms potent...
متن کاملOntogeny and Funtional Morphology of a Lower Cretaceous Carpinid Rudist (Bivalvia, Hippuritoida)
Caprinuloidea rudists are locally abundant and widespread in Lower Cretaceous (Albian Stage) Edwards Formation in Texas. Landward of the shelf margin on the shallow marine Comanche Shelf rudists built circular and elongate bioherms with coarse-grained flank deposits. Two caprinid morphotypes suggest that some lived as elevators above the substrate and others were recumbent upon mobile grain fla...
