in the industrial area of elefsis, greece, aerosol samples from the atmosphere were collected using a stacked filter unit sampler, which separates the airborne particulate matter into coarse (pm2.5-10) and fine (pm2.5) size fractions. the samples collected during the period january 2005 to march 2006, were analyzed by anodic stripping voltammetry (asv) and inductively coupled plasma atomic emis...

During its late-stage evolution, the European Alpine orogen witnessed a northwest-directed propagation of deformation front along an evaporitic basal décollement into foreland. This resulted in decoupling northern Molasse Basin from basement and formation Jura fold-and-thrust belt. Here, we present first absolute age temperature constraints on this using carbonate U-Pb LA-ICP-MS dating clumped ...

In this note the taxonomic position of the tiny eomyid genus Keramidomys (Hartenberger, 1967) from the Early/Middle Miocene boundary locality of Sandelzhausen in the Bavarian Upper Freshwater Molasse is reexamined. As the chronological dating of the Sandelzhausen fossil site has been modified in the past from formerly the Neogene mammal unit MN6 to now MN5 and thanks to new abundant material th...

[1] Large topographic belts along convergent margins have been recognized with the ability to slowdown the kinematics of subduction over geologically short time periods (i.e., few Myr), because their associated gravitational spreading provides significant resistive force within the framework of plate tectonics. The record of past and present-day plate kinematics provides important constraints o...

Experiments were made to determine the effects of sediment size, sediment concentration, and flow velocity on the depositional style of sand-sized particles in a highvelocity surgd. A dimdnsional analysis of the experimental system was performed in an effort to relate the experimental results to deposits from turbidity currents and overwash surges. A large part of each deposit was a result of d...
