Wave‐generated structures and sequences from a shallow marine succession, Lower Carboniferous, County Cork, IrelandSedimentology - Tập 24 Số 4 - Trang 451-483 - 1977
Johan Ferdinand Maurits De Raaf, J. R. Boersma, A. van Gelder
ABSTRACTIn a Lower Carboniferous formation south of Cork, Ireland, characterized by sand/mud alternations at varying scales, several lithotypes could be singled out on the basis of relative sand content and primary sedimentary structures. The lithotypes are arranged in several types of sequences: coarsening upwards, coarsening‐fining upwards, random, and in rare in...... hiện toàn bộ
Dolomitization, gypsum calcitization and silicification in carbonate–evaporite shallow lacustrine depositsSedimentology - Tập 64 Số 4 - Trang 1147-1172 - 2017
Ma Ángeles Bustillo, Ildefonso Armenteros Armenteros, Pedro Huerta Hurtado
AbstractThis paper describes and interprets the mineral and facies assemblages that occur in carbonate–evaporite shallow lacustrine deposits, considering the importance of the processes pathway (i.e. dolomitization, gypsum calcitization and silicification). The Palaeogene deposits of the Deza Formation (Almazán Basin, central‐northern Spain) are selected as a case ...... hiện toàn bộ
Facies and flow regimes of sandstone‐hosted columnar intrusions: Insights from the pipes of Kodachrome Basin State ParkSedimentology - Tập 61 Số 6 - Trang 1764-1792 - 2014
Jessica A. Ross, Jeff Peakall, Gareth M. Keevil
AbstractSandstone‐hosted intrusions are found in a wide variety of environments, but remain poorly understood compared with their mudstone‐hosted counterparts. In particular, they remain largely unrecognized in the subsurface, in part because they are problematic to image in seismic data. This study reports on the facies and fluid flow associated with a 20 000 km... hiện toàn bộ
Seismogenically induced fluidization of Jurassic erg sands, south‐central UtahSedimentology - Tập 49 Số 1 - Trang 65-80 - 2002
Dennis I. Netoff
Large bodies of fluidized sandstone occur in the Jurassic Entrada, Carmel, Page and Navajo Formations at several locations in south‐central Utah. They are most abundant in the Entrada Sandstone, where they commonly occur in clusters, have a cylindrical form and have a sharp contact with their cross‐bedded host rock. These clastic pipes are as wide as 75 m and have exposed heights of as muc...... hiện toàn bộ
Fluidization and injection in the deep‐water sandstones of the Eocene Alba Formation (UK North Sea)Sedimentology - Tập 51 Số 3 - Trang 503-529 - 2004
D. Duranti, Andrew Hurst
AbstractThe Nauchlan Member of the Late Eocene Alba Formation (UK North Sea) consists of a deep‐water channel fill that was extensively modified by post‐depositional sand remobilization and injection. Sandstone textures, facies associations and the geometry of the channel fill were affected. A suite of sand‐rich facies was produced by large‐scale fluidization and i...... hiện toàn bộ
Postglacial colluvium in western Norway: depositional processes, facies and palaeoclimatic recordSedimentology - Tập 45 Số 5 - Trang 909-959 - 1998
BLIKRA, Nemec
The postglacial Quaternary colluvial systems in western Norway are arrays of steep fans, often coalescing into aprons, developed along the slopes of valley sides and fjord margins. The coarse debris, derived from weathered gneissic bedrock and its glacial‐till mantle, varies from highly immature to mature. The depositional processes are mainly avalanches, ranging from rockfalls and debrisf...... hiện toàn bộ
Two‐layer scree/snow‐avalanche triggered by rockfall (Eastern Alps): Significance for sedimentology of scree slopesSedimentology - Tập 61 Số 4 - Trang 996-1030 - 2014
Diethard Sanders, Lukas Widera, Marc Ostermann
AbstractRockfalls that trigger scree‐laden snow avalanches are common in mountain ranges, but the resulting avalanche development and its role in understanding the sedimentology of scree slopes are rarely described in detail. On Riepenwand (2774 m above sea‐level, Kalkkögel range, Alps), on 6 May 2011 a 5800 m3 rockfall of dolostone detached fr...... hiện toàn bộ
