Introduction Identification of the climate changes is important for understanding the paleoenvironmental characteristics. Sedimentary evidence of the closed basins can be one of the most important methods for identifying the climatic periods and changes in the sedimentary environments. Gavkhouni Playa, as the lowland of the ZayandehRud River catchment area is located in an inter-mountainous...

This study was done on 65 isolated pelvic bones, These cadavers belonged to adult people of mature and old age, and they had no pathological changes. These measurements were performed on osteological collection of Department of Anatomy Drago Perović. Many geometrical parameters of facies auricularis were measured, which we considered important for further studies, simulations of joint's action,...

Reservoir heterogeneities exist at several length scales. Reservoir properties will depend on the scale that we are analysing on the reservoir (from core to grid block). Facies are normally identified in cores and classified based on microscopic and small scale features such as lithology, grain size, texture, sedimentary structure, colour and fossil content. However, facies information is only ...

A detailed outcrop and sub-surface analysis was completed on the Peay Member sandstone (Frontier Formation) in the northeast Bighorn Basin, Wyoming, building on previous work by Clark (2010) and Hutsky (2011). Regional correlations reveal the sandstone body to be digitate in planform geometry, elongate along depositional dip, and restricted across depositional strike. It is interpreted to be th...

The main objective of this work is to present a new methodology for seismic reservoir characterization that provides fine-scaled reservoir models of facies and reservoir properties, such as porosity, net-to-gross, and, possibly, fluid saturation. The proposed iterative methodology is based on sequential simulations of discrete variables, namely sequential indicator simulation, and a stochastic ...

Turbidite systems are complex heterogeneous siliciclastic deposits calling for a new approach to geophysical and geostatistical reservoir characterization. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the integration of seismic amplitude and rock physics data into realistic geological scenarios using a novel geostatistical approach. Avseth (2000, 2001 with others) presented an integrated rock physic...

Dramatic physical and physico-chemical changes in soil properties may arise due to temperature and moisture variations as well as swelling of soil organic matter (SOM) under constant conditions. Soil property variations may influence sorption/desorption and transport processes of environmental contaminants and nutrients in natural-organic-matterrich soils. Notwithstanding the studies reported i...

A male Bedouin baby with the clinical profile of femoral hypoplasia-unusual facies syndrome is described. The phenotype includes bilateral asymmetrical lower limb hypoplasia/aplasia with short remnants of both femora, absent right tibia, bifid right big toe, dysmorphic facies, thoracic/pelvic abnormalities, macrophallus, and bilateral cryptorchidism. This report re-emphasises the previously des...

in order to determine the source and critical areas of wind erosion, sistan plain, irifr-e.a method was applied. according to geomorphological investigations, the studied area consists of the following two main units namely: pediment with 1 type and 8 geomorphological facies, and playa with 2 types of flatland and desert type that includes 9 geomorphological facies. on the basis of sediment, th...
