Integrated sedimentological, palynological, and palynofacies analyses of the Arrifes section in central Algarve Basin (southern Portugal) provided new information on age environments this Lower Cretaceous sequence. The sedimentary succession at consists fossiliferous interbedded limestones, marly marls, dated as latest Hauterivian to late Barremian (Lower Cretaceous) based key dinoflagellate ta...

The Avanah Formation (Middle Eocene) was studied in the Haibat sultan section at Bina Bawi Anticline, Northeast of Erbil city within Iraqi Kurdistan region. field observation indicated that formation occurs as Carbonate interbeds lower and middle parts Gercus Formation, which consists mainly light yellowish to creamy color, well-bedded, marly, dolomitic limestone with some intercalations sandst...

Grupi and Kashkan marl formations comprise a considerable part of Zagros region. These formations have a considerable erodibility and sedimentation potential because of their special geological and mineralogical characteristics. The objective of this study was to compare the erosion and sediment yield of Kashkan and Grupi formations in Merk watershed located in southeast Kermanshah, using the M...

in this research, calcareous nannofossils of the upper cretaceous deposits of the souteast lar have been investigated. the upper cretaceous deposits have a thickness of 173 meters and consist of thick layers of marl and marly limestone. for introducing calcareous nannofossil assemblages and biozones, 141 slides of the gurpi formation in southeast of lar area have been studies which led to ident...

We applied a multi-method approach to reconstruct the Gorte rock avalanche (85–95 Mm3) located at northeastern end of Lake Garda. The combination field mapping, characterization bedrock discontinuities, Dan3D-Flex runout modeling and dating boulders with cosmogenic 36Cl supports conclusion that deposits stem from single 6.1 ± 0.8 ka. event may have triggered Spiaz de Navesele–Salto della Capra ...

A re-examination of fossil material from the Late Cretaceous Cambridge Greensand Member (CGM) West Melbury Marly Chalk Formation revealed a number new specimens edentulous pterosaur jaw fragments previously identified as shark fin spines and fish jaws accessioned under epithet ‘cestraciontid finray’ ‘jaws fish’. These are now recognised pterosaurian tips referred to Ornithostoma sedgwicki Seele...

A review of lightning protection concepts introduced by Benjamin Franklin (18th century) and James Clerk Maxwell (19th century) is given. Modern approaches to lightning protection of various structures and systems are discussed. In particular, the widely used electrogeometrical model (one version of which is the Rolling Sphere Method) and the topological shielding are presented. Bonding require...

The current study deals with microfacies and the depositional environment of Lower Cretaceous Sarmord Formation at selected sections in Sulaimani Erbil Governorates, northern Iraq. alternates rhythmically between yellowish grey marly limestones black marls. These lithologies are observed all studied Petrographic investigation this based on 240 thin demonstrated that carbonate constituents mainl...
