High core recovery at Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 210, Site 1276, provided a high-resolution porosity-depth relationship and an equally impressive age-depth model based on first and last occurrences of microfossils. Site 1276 was drilled over transitional crust in the Newfoundland nonvolcanic margin, offshore Canada, between known continental crust on the west and apparent oceanic crust on...

Spinosauridae presents an extensive geographical and temporal distribution, with records from Gondwana Laurasia, a range Barremian (~129 Ma, Lower Cretaceous) to Cenomanian (~95 Upper Cretaceous). To date, 13 species were described, besides several specimens identified at broader taxonomic level. One of the most notable cranial features spinosaurids is their elongated rostrum (hypertrophied pre...

Abstract Lower Goru sand intervals of Early Cretaceous age are proven reservoirs in the Indus Platform area. The delineation reservoir geometries is utmost importance while searching for stratigraphic and combination traps clastic reservoirs. data ten wells two 2D seismic lines from northern part Basin incorporated this study. These Formation correlated a third-order sequence framework to under...

Surface collecting is the first and sometimes only type of sampling carried out in many fossiliferous localities, including vertebrate microfossil assemblages. Nevertheless, it rare to test how representative these surface-collected samples are palaeobiocoenosis. A approach palaeontological analysis Los Menires, a Barremian assemblage, here performed while testing usefulness surface collection ...
