dalichai formation at the rey-abad section (northeast shahroud) along the principal road of the mayamey-jajarm has a thickness of 166 meters .in this section, middle to upper jurassic carbonate rocks are well exposed and is typically composed of massive to medium-bedded limestones with thin shale interbeds. in the studied area and most places of this region, the lower boundary of dalichai forma...

three well - known source rocks of the zagros basin and the persian gulf are mesozoic in age.the jurassic sargelu, albian kazhdumi and neocomian-coniacian garau formations have charged the cretaceous reservoirs of this area. the northwest part of the persian gulf is strongly influenced by two major n-s trending paleohighs (hendijan- bahregansar-regesafid-izeh and kharge- mish) and surrounding p...

The western Tianshan high-pressure/low-temperature orogenic belt in NW China contains eclogite-facies metavolcanic rocks and omphacite-bearing blueschists. Previous Sm-Nd (omphacite, garnet, glaucophane, whole rock) and Ar/Ar (crossite) dating of eclogite-facies rocks has suggested an age of ca. 345 Ma as the best approximation for the timing of peak metamorphic conditions. The samples describe...

Identifying facies for classification for a seismic inversion project is an important step where one balances computational effort and the quality of the results. We propose a new measure to quantify the suitability of a given facies partition based on information theory. The results depend on a user-selected cutoff, and we propose a reasonable value for this constant. We also show the analysis...

Integration of ichnologic, sedimentologic, and stratigraphic studies of cores from Lower Pennsylva-nian oil and gas reservoirs (lower Morrow Sandstone, southwest Kansas) allows researchers to distinguish between estuarine-and open-marine deposits. This study represents one of the first published ichnologic analyses of a Paleozoic reservoir and, therefore, provides a unique opportunity to test t...

Sialidosis, a rare lysosomal storage disorder is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme α-N-acetyl neuraminidase, resulting from mutations in the NEU1 gene. Its main phenotypes are Sialidosis types I (milder form) and II (earlier onset). Sialidosis type II is characterized by developmental delay, macular cherry-red spot, visceromegaly, coarse facies, dysostosis multiplex, and myoclonus. We report...

The Lindås Nappe, Bergen Arc, is located in western Norway and displays two high-grade metamorphic structures. A Precambrian granulite facies foliation is transected by Caledonian fluid-induced eclogite-facies shear zones and pseudotachylytes. To understand how a superimposed tectonic event may influence olivine fabric and change seismic anisotropy, two lenses of spinel lherzolite were studied ...

Palimpsests are large, circular, low-relief impact scars on Ganymede and Callisto. These structures were poorly understood based on Voyager-era analysis, but high-resolution Galileo images allow more detailed inspection. We analyze images of four Ganymedean palimpsests targeted by Galileo: Memphis and Buto Faculae, Epigeus, and Zakar. Ganymedean craters and Europan ring structures are used as t...

The aim of this research was to accurately measure the surface of the semi lunar articular surface of the pelvis (facies lunata acetabuli) and the variability of the acetabular geometry, as well as to determine the correlation between measured parameters. 30 macerated anatomical specimens of pelvic bones were measured. The radius and depth were measured in the classical way, while cartilaginous...
