The present-day Magdalena Valley, Eastern Cordillera, and Llanos Basin were part of a regional multiphase basin that started as an extensional in the Jurassic. Then, it was transformed into retroarc foreland Late Cretaceous subsequently separated hinterland during late Eocene. We incorporated new data from Cordillera chronostratigraphically correlated with adjacent basins. Their correlation con...

Noonan Syndrome is one of the most common genetic syndromes and also an important differential diagnosis in children presenting with syndromic facies similar to Turner's syndrome phenotype. This syndrome is characterized by facial dysmorphism, congenital heart defects, short stature and also a wide phenotypic variation. This article discusses the case of a 10 year-old patient with Noonan syndro...

Many of the late Paleozoic granitoid plutons of the southern Appalachians are composite bodies with coarsegrained amphibole + biotite and biotite varietal facies (Speer et al., 1980). From field relations, these facies appear closely related, and multiple intrusion or differentiation comes to mind as an explanation for the relationship. In the Liberty Hill pluton, the coarse-grained central amp...

Asymmetric crying facies is caused by congenital hypoplasia or agenesis of the depressor anguli oris muscle. Associations of this facial defect with major congenital anomalies have been reported, most commonly in the cardiovascular system and less frequently involving the genitourinary, musculoskeletal, cervicofacial, respiratory, and rarely, the endocrine system. CATCH 22 is a medical acronym ...

Introduction: Each of the three Tharsis Montes volcanoes on Mars has unusual fan-shaped deposits located exclusively to the northwest of each shield. The fan-shaped deposits of the Tharsis Montes generally share three major facies: 1) Ridged facies, 2) Knobby facies, and 3) Smooth facies. Here we examine the Pavonis fan-shaped deposits using new Mars Global Surveyor and Mars Odyssey data. Any e...

A 3D model of oil and gas fields is important for reserves estimation, for cost effective well placing and for input into reservoir simulators. Reservoir characterization of permeability, litho-facies and other properties of the rocks is essential. A good model depends on calibration at the well locations, with cored wells providing the best data. A subset of wells may contain specialized infor...

Acute leukaemia may rarely present as diffuse papules, nodules and plaques forming leonine facies. Leukaemia cutis generally carries a poor prognosis, and responds less well to chemotherapy. We described a case of acute myelomonocytic leukaemia presenting as leonine facies as a result of extensive cutaneous infiltration. The patient did not achieve haematological remission following standard in...

no-bahar watershed is located, south of khorasan razavi province. geologically, the study area is a part of central iran zone. the rock units are late mesozoic and cenozoic in age in this watershed. no-babhar watershed includes several channels, which among them, only two main channels, motr-abad and solh-abad, have been studied. these rivers are mostly, braided channel in style, with high grad...

Prestack seismic data carries much useful information that can help us find more complex atypical reservoirs. Therefore, we are increasingly inclined to use prestack seismic data for seismic facies recognition. However, due to the inclusion of excessive redundancy, effective feature extraction from prestack seismic data becomes critical. In this paper, we consider seismic facies recognition bas...

Deposition of marine strata associated with the Lower Pennsylvanian Mary Lee coal zone (Pottsville Formation) was controlled by the allocyclic mechanism of eustatic sea-level change. The vertical stacking of marine, marginal marine, and terrestrial facies indicates that this interval was deposited during a single transgression-regression-transgression cycle. Ravinement surfaces, and associated ...
