Evidence of volcaniclastic sedimentation occurs in the first depositional sequence sedimentary succession Amantea Basin. Volcaniclastic deposits are intercalated upper part a sandstone formation and these show maximum thickness about 8 m. The Basin is Neogene depozone located along Tyrrhenian margin Calabria whose onset started during Upper Serravallian. source volcano to materials had have bee...

This study examines the connections between recent terrestrial sedimentation and carbon burial and discusses the implications for the global carbon cycle. Land-use change has mobilized large quantities of sediment, causing sediment to accumulate on valley floors, altering the terrestrial sediment cycle. This accumulated sediment may be sequestering much of the “missing carbon.” Using a combinat...

the appearance of sowbugs (hemilepistus shirazi schuttz) in the sedimentation basins of the artificial recharge of groundwater (arg) systems in the gareh bygone plain (gbp) in southern iran is considered an ecological breakthrough in desertification control. this study was performed at the kowsar floodwater spreading and aquifer management research, training and extension station in gbp, 200 km...

The Chazy, Black River and Trenton Groups are a well studied sequence of fossiliferous limestones, dolostones and sandstones in the Champlain Valley of New York, Vermont and southern Quebec. These rocks record shallow water cyclic sedimentation in the foreland basin of Laurentia prior to and during the initial stages of the Taconic Orogeny. This field trip reviews the stratigraphy of these unit...
