Channel-fill sediments located in shallow-water off the south shore of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, provide a record of the late-Pleistocene and Holocene geological evolution in a post-glacial setting. Though conventionally difficult to sample adequately and anticipated to have low preservation potential, channel-fill sequences record in some detail differing relative sea-level and sedimentation pr...

A novel 3-dimensional numerical model resolving dynamic interactions between environmental drivers and benthic fauna was applied to an idealized domain as analogous typical tidal embayments. The aim is derive insights into the role of in guiding long-term (decadal centennial) coastal morphological evolution at a system scale. Three major functions by on sediment dynamics, namely bio-destabiliza...

Abstract The Krems Embayment contains the westernmost fully marine depositional environments of Karpatian and Bade-nian transgressions in Central Paratethys. Four drill cores were investigated to analyse bio- lithostratigraphic, tectonic relations. core sections cover Laa Formation (bio-zones M4, NN4) Badenian Gaindorf (M5b-M6, NN4-NN5). Important biostratigraphic indicators identified are Prae...

a faunistic survey was conducted to identify the leafhoppers in the southwest of iran (khouzestan province) in 2014. among the collected materials, aconurella nuristana dlabola, 1957 is recorded for the first time for iranian leafhoppers fauna. diagnostic characters and geographical distribution of the newly recorded species is presented briefly.

We report on a preliminary study carried out for the development of a 3D-GIS, which is supposed to manage geoscientific data of the Lower Rhine Embayment. The implementation of geometric 3D-operations is fundamental for 3D-GIS. Here we present the realization of an extensible geometric library implemented within an object oriented prototype database kernel system. The spatial representation use...

[1] Very high-resolution imaging and stereo topographic data obtained during the Galileo G28 encounter with Ganymede show 1) evidence for Europa-like, crustal spreading and resurfacing to form portions of the bright terrain, and 2) bright terrain that appears smooth at Voyager resolution (and thus a strong candidate for cryovolcanism) but instead is tectonically deformed and lacks embayment rel...
