In this research, petrographic and geochemical (major and trace elements) characteristics of siliciclastic rocks of the Mozduran Formation in the eastern Kopet-Dagh Basin have been carried out in order to reveal their provenance such as source area paleoweathering, parent rock composition and tectonic setting. Mozduran Formation is mainly composed of limestone and dolomite, with minor amounts o...

Macroids, cm-sized biogenically coated grains made of associations metazoans or protozoans, accumulate in some high-frequency sedimentary sequences the upper Hauterivian to lower Barremian Agua de la Mula Member Agrio Formation Neuquén Basin (northern Patagonia, Argentina). The macroids studied are sub-spheroidal and sub-discoidal shape, 2–3 cm diameter 1–2 height. Each macroid is characterised...

Coordinated taphonomic, geochronologic, and geochemical studies of bivalve death assemblages and their sedimentary environments of San Blas, Caribbean Panama, permit us to identify the major factors controlling skeletal degradation in mixed carbonate-siliciclastic tropical shelf sediments. Ten sites were studied along environmental gradients including water nutrients, grain size, and sediment c...

Morrowan-age units in the Permian Basin appear to show a “second-order” transgression from siliciclastic fluvial-deltaic to shallow-marine and subsequently to carbonate deposition. In general, Morrowan-age siliciclastics dominate deposition in the west of the Permian Basin, while carbonate deposition dominates in the east. The predominance of carbonate facies in the east is due to a lack of sil...

Suspended sediments produced from dredging activities, or added to the sediment budget via river runoff, are a concern for marine resource managers. Understanding the impact of suspended sediments on critical life history stages of keystone species like corals is fundamental to effective management of coastlines and reefs. Coral embryos (Acropora tenuis and A. millepora) and larvae (A. tenuis, ...

The upper part of Shirgesht (UPS) and lower part of Niur (LPN) formations (Ordovician-Silurian) consist of sandstone, shale and limestone, respectively. The petrography and geochemical analysis conducted to evaluate provenance of siliciclastic deposits in order to understand the paleogeography of Central Iran during the Early Paleozoic time. This study shows that quartz and K-feldspar are the m...

in this paper, we introduce and study the concepts of $mathcal{i}_2$-convergence, $mathcal{i}_2^{*}$-convergence for double sequences of fuzzy real numbers, where $mathcal{i}_2$ denotes the ideal of subsets of $mathbb n times mathbb n$. also, we study some properties and relations of them.

A new diogenid paguroid, Paguristes liwinskii sp. nov., is described from upper Albian phosphorite-bearing deposits near Annopol, along the east bank of the River Vistula (Wisła), east-central Poland. This new species constitutes an additional example of Early-Mid-Cretaceous macrofaunal shift, from marine reefal limestone to siliciclastic facies, triggered by the worldwide radiation of plankton...

We describe Scolopocryptopstroglocaudatus sp. n., a new troglobitic scolopocryptopine centipede species. The species was found in a remarkable siliciclastic karst area of Eastern Brazil, in three caves of the Chapada da Diamantina, in the state of Bahia. Scolopocryptopstroglocaudatus sp. n. is close to Scolopocryptopsmiersii Newport, 1845 and Scolopocryptopsferrugineusmacrodon (Kraepelin, 1903)...
