Geoscientists employed current-day stratigraphic, depositional and paleontological models, along with modern technological muscle to provide updated insights of the Cambrian period of the Grand ...
Traditional sequence stratigraphic models typically show that significant sediment bypass from onshore to way offshore, in the deep-marine realm, occurs when sea level is low (called "lowstand").
Sedimentology explores the origin, transport, deposition and diagenetic alterations of the materials that compose sediments and sedimentary rocks. Stratigraphy investigates how those types of rocks ...
A new study provides the first direct chronological test of sequence stratigraphy, a powerful tool for exploring Earth’s natural resources. A new study co-authored by a University of Florida ...

A new study co-authored by a University of Florida researcher provides the first direct chronological test of sequence stratigraphy, a powerful tool for exploring Earth's natural resources.
This post reviews some fundamental concepts of stratigraphy that are discussed in a 1964 GSA Bulletin paper by Harry Wheeler. At the same time, it is an essay about my own quest to really ...
We use the Laboratoire de Meteorologie Dynamique (LMD) Martian Global Climate Model (GCM) to study paleoclimate states to enable a better interpretation of the NPLD physical and chemical stratigraphy.
