Abstract The protected Tel-Dor coastal embayment in the eastern Mediterranean preserves an unusually complete stratigraphic record that reveals human–environmental interactions throughout Holocene. Interpretation of new seismic profiles collected from shallow marine geophysical transects across bay show five units were correlated with stratigraphy and age dates obtained shallow-marine sediment ...

Abderaz Formation is one of the Upper Cretaceous formations in the Kopet-Dagh sedimentary basin. A stratigraphic section from the mentioned formation is selected for detailed systematic description with regard to echinoids. Numerous well preserved representatives of the families Mircrasteridae wright, 1857 and Echinocorythidae Lambert, 1920 are described from the Ghaleh-Zoo stratigraphic sectio...

In addition, one of the following statements should be included. Abstract The Piceance Basin, CO is a type locale for unconventional tight-gas sandstone in the Rocky Mountains (Law, 2002). Productive Williams Fork sandstones are extremely heterogeneous fluvial to marginal marine reservoirs that have very low permeability (<0.1 md) that typically require expensive hydraulic fracturing with 10-20...

Seismic coherence is widely used in seismic interpretation and reservoir characterization to highlight (with low values) faults and stratigraphic features from a seismic image. A coherence image can be computed from the eigenvalues of conventional structure tenors, which are outer products of gradients of a seismic image. I have developed a simple but effective method to improve such a coherenc...

The term Anthropocene, proposed and increasingly employed to denote the current interval of anthropogenic global environmental change, may be discussed on stratigraphic grounds. A case can be made for its consideration as a formal epoch in that, since the start of the Industrial Revolution, Earth has endured changes sufficient to leave a global stratigraphic signature distinct from that of the ...

[1] A kilometers‐thick sedimentary sequence in Gale Crater exhibits stratigraphic changes in lithology that are consistent with transitions in aqueous and climatic conditions purported to be global in scale. The sequence is divided into two formations, where the Lower formation exhibits a net transition in mineralogy from clay/sulfate to sulfate/oxide assemblages and is separated from the overl...

INTRODUCTION Geological evolution of the Amazon Basin. The geological history of lowland Amazonia is still poorly understood, in part because much of the Tertiary stratigraphic history has been removed by erosion and that which remains is difficult to study and access in a rainforest environment. The landscape evolution of Amazonia during the Neogene was influenced mainly by Andean tectonics an...
