Volcanic rocks as discriminants in evaluating tectnoic versus climatic control on depoositional sequences, Permo-Carboniferous continental Saar-Nahe Basin
Journal of the Geological Society
; Abstract: The third- and fourth-order sequential arrangement of continental sedimentary strata in the Permo-Carboniferous Saar-Nahe Basin preserves a detailed record of contemporaneous faulting and volcanism. Transgressive lacustrine facies of the Upper Carboniferous coincide with the stratigraphic

The Orange River, southern Africa: an extreme example of a wave-dominated sediment dispersal system in the South Atlantic Ocean
Journal of the Geological Society
; Abstract: Sediments delivered to the South Atlantic Ocean by the Orange River are fractionated and dispersed northwards and westwards by a vigorous longshore drift system and a number of ocean currents. Gravels are accreted to the coastline for a distance >300 km north from the Orange River

Sedimentology and high-resolution sequence stratigraphy of the late middle to late Miocene Angostura Formation (western Borbón Basin, northwestern Ecuador)
Journal of the Geological Society
; Abstract: An integrated analysis of facies and palaeontological content of the middle to late Miocene (c. 12.4-9.1 Ma) Angostura Formation led to the identification of facies associations indicative of shoreface and inner-shelf settings. The Angostura Formation comprises eight high-frequency

Aquatic sediments
Water Environment Research
; SEDIMENTATION Bottom-current-influenced sandy sediments were identified in outer-fan and basin-plain deposits of the Kazusa Group, the infill of the Plio-Pleistocene Kazusa forearc basin in the BOSO Peninsula of Japan. Analogous processes appear to have been responsible for the deposition of sandy

Neoproterozoic glaciation in the Earth System
Journal of the Geological Society
; Abstract: The Neoproterozoic contains severe glacial intervals (750-580 Ma) including two extending to low palaeomagnetic latitudes. Paucity of radiometric dates indicates the need for chronostratigraphic tools. Whereas the marine ^sup 87^Sr/^sup 86^Sr signatures show a steady rise, δ^sup 13^C

Using high-resolution stratigraphy to date fold and thrust activity: Examples from the Neogene of south-central Sicily
Journal of the Geological Society
; R. W. H. BUTLER(1) & W. H. LICKORISH(2) Abstract: The integration of structural and stratigraphic data is fundamental for determining rates of deformation in the uppermost continental crust. The high temporal resolution provided by Neogene marine sediments is used here to examine deformation
