Early Miocene palaeoclimatic reconstruction of Tunçbilek basin

Quantitative analysis, basin evolution and paleoecology of Early Miocene ostracods in the southwest of Kerman, Iran

This paper focuses on the quantitative analyses of Early Miocene ostracods in south and north of the Sirjan area, southwest of Kerman. Detailed studies resulted in identification of 23 species of ostracoda. The coexisting benthic foraminifera and comparing the identified microfauna assemblages with previous studies confirms the Early Miocene age for the strata. The quantitative analysis show a ...

Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction of Miocene Surma Succession in the Well Rashidpur # 04 of Bengal Basin Using Log Facies Interpretation

Detailed log facies studies of Miocene succession in the well Rashidpur-04, Rashidpur structure, Surma Basin were carried out by integrating wireline log and limited core sample data in order to reconstruct the paleoenvironments of deposition. Based on the analysis of the log motifs, grain size, sand/shale ratio and major change in gamma ray log motifs, two major depositional sequences were ide...

Miocene deposits in the amazonian foreland basin.

Late Oligocene–Early Miocene paleosols of distal fluvial systems, Ebro Basin, Spain

The study of paleosols can be a vital tool in the paleoenvironmental interpretation of continental deposits because their physical and chemical characteristics are a reflection of variations in aspects of soil formation. Changes in paleosol characteristics can be used to determine the architecture and nature of parent material, paleosol maturity, topography, climate and soil-forming organisms (...
