A number of informal terms (e.g., Anthropocene, Anthropozoic, Psychozoic, Noozoic, and Technogene) have been used to designate the rock unit and time interval where the impact of collective human action on the Earth system is clearly recognizable (called here the Humanized Earth System or HES). Presently, Anthropocene is the most commonly used, and the International Commission on Stratigraphy i...

■ Abstract Advances in taphonomy and stratigraphy over the past two decades have dramatically improved our understanding of the causes, effects, and remedies of incompleteness in the fossil record for the study of evolution. Taphonomic research has focused on quantifying probabilities of preservation across taxonomic groups, the temporal and spatial resolution of fossil deposits, and secular ch...

Abstract Interpretation of deep‐water channel deposits is challenging because the spatial arrangement their constituent lithologies highly variable. This variability often thought to be a signature complex interactions between controlling boundary conditions and processes. A three‐dimensional forward stratigraphic model sinuous meandering used explore production channelised stratigraphy. highli...
