NETWORK THEORY IN ICHNOLOGY: FROM BEHAVIOURAL TOPOLOGY TO THE DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENT
… settings. In this regard, the modern peritidal environments of the Grado lagoon (Italy, Adriatic Sea), the Nurra ichnosite (Permian-Triassic; Italy) and the Pramollo ichnolagerstätte (Carboniferous-Permian; Italy) have been selected for developing, applying and testing network analysis for the …

Age, Stratigraphy and Depositional Environment of the Pliocene Copper Canyon Formation, Death Valley, California
… been broadly included in regional tectonic and depositional analyses. The formation is significant because it preserves numerous shoreline-playa features including highly abundant and diverse mammal and bird tracks. The formation represents a basin fill sequence consisting of approximately 1800 …

Stratigraphy and Depositional Environment of the Middle Atoka Formation, Central Arkoma Basin, Western Arkansas
… units and predict sequence stratigraphy and depositional environment by constructing cross-sections, observing wireline logs and associating previous research. Several isopach maps are made, explaining the development of sandstone in target units such as Tackett and Casey.</p> <p>The sequence …

Petrology, geochemistry, diagenesis and depositional environment of the Upper Devonian - Lower Carboniferous Exshaw Formation, northwestern Alberta.
… as of late, since there are a number of depositional and paleo-oceanographic conditions responsible for their formation. This has led to various models attempting to explain the production and preservation of large quantities of organic matter. The Exshaw Formation is composed of an upper …

Sedimentology and depositional environment of a marine target, Southern Namibia: 3D stratigraphic architecture and diamond mineralisation potential
The world's largest diamond placer lies on the southwestern coast of Namibia, within the restricted area known as the Sperrgebiet, and comprises, amongst others, a series of Plio-Pleistocene to Holocene littoral deposits preserved onshore for >120 km northwards from the Orange River mouth. Through …

The Muddy Creek Formation: Depositional environment, provenance, and tectonic significance in the western Lake Mead area, Nevada and Arizona
In the River Mountains, the Muddy Creek Formation is informally divided into four members; the River Mountain conglomerate, the Boulder Basin conglomerate, the lakeshore member, and The Cliffs member; Clasts in the Muddy Creek Formation are composed of andesite, dacite, basalt, rhyolite, quartz …

Comparing The Depositional Environment Of The Upper Smackover Formation In Southwestern Clarke County, Mississippi And Brooklyn/ Little Cedar Creek Field, Alabama
<p>This research evaluated the depositional settings of the upper Smackover formation in southwestern Clarke County (scc), Mississippi and compared its facies to those of the Brooklyn and little cedar creek fields (bf/lcc) in Conecuh and Escambia Counties, Alabama. The Smackover formation has been …

The Origin of Dark Mats at the Sunrise Ridge Borrow Pit Site (45PI408) Mount Rainier National Park, Washington
… into two components based on the ambiguous depositional history of the dark mats, notably their unknown parent material, depositional environment, and relationship with adjacent tephra strata. Stratigraphic samples from excavation units, features, and one off-site excavation unit was used to …

A mineralogical study of the Harmon lignite bed, Bullion Creek Formation (Paleocene), Bowman County, North Dakota
… origins of the mineral phases; to postulate a depositional environment for the Harmon lignite; and to ascertain whether variable ash deposition behavior of the Gascoyne lignite is related to mineral content. </p><p> Scanning electron microscopy and electron microprobe analysis was used to …

Stratigraphic Analysis of the Capps Limestone in the North Norton Oil Field in Runnels County, Texas
… County was deposited in a marginal marine environment during the Middle Pennsylvanian Period. Although the Capps Limestone was first described in the 1890s, there is still much to be discovered about its depositional environment and sequence stratigraphy. Here, an analysis of the …

Post-depositional structural changes in clay sediments
… clays and mudrocks due to the influence of the environment of deposition and subsequent compaction. A sedimentary model is proposed in which the development of fissility in shales and the formation of hydrocarbon source rocks are attributed to the chemical conditions at the time of deposition. …

Thermal and Diagenetic Evolution of Carboniferous Sandstones, Central Appalachian Basin
… as framework grain composition, paleoclimate and depositional environment. A priori groups (independent variables) corresponding to the controls were compared using digenetic products (dependent variables). Major conclusions of the analysis are, first, minerals that formed early appear to have …
