Sequence stratigraphy and evolution of a basin-slope succession: The Late Proterozoic Wonoka Formation, Flinders Ranges, South Australia
A shelf to basin-slope transition is vertically and laterally exposed within the Late Proterozoic Wonoka Formation in the northern Flinders Ranges of South Australia. The shelf to basin-slope transition can be divided into four units (C to F) which are defined on the basis of facies, sedimentary structures, contacts, stratal geometry, and the type and abundance of down-slope mass movement. The ...

Two classes of compous which bind to calnodulin in a calciumdependent manner (neuroleptic drugs and local anaesthetics) were used to investigate the possible involvement of a calcium-dependent regulator protein in the action of the plant hormones cytokinins. The cytokinin-induced synthesis of betacyanin in Amarandus tricolr seedlings was used as one test system. The calmodulin antagonists inhib...
متن کاملReconstruction of the Late-Quaternary climate change using magnetic susceptibility of Saadabad-Gorgan loess deposits
Introduction One of the processes of the Quaternary era is the glacial and interglacial periods. In the glacial period, loesses deposited and in the interglacial period, Paleosoils were formed. The northern part of Iran is geographically the same as countries such as China, a large part of which has been covered with loess sediments during the Pleistocene glacial period. Loess sediments in ...
متن کاملThe Late Pleistocene Cultures of South America
All these views can be accomodated by emphasizing different archeological records in different geographical areas. That is, prior to the outset of deglaciation between 15,000 and 13,000 years ago, the first South Americans may have been confined to productive, open terrain or patchy forests in lowland environments where they may have moved quickly and adapted readily. Movement into the high alt...
