Abstract Chlorite, an Fe-and Mg-rich aluminosilicate clay, may be either detrital or authigenic
in sandstones. Detrital chlorite includes mineral grains, components of lithic grain, matrix …

Most tide-dominated estuarine and deltaic deposits accumulate in the fluvial-to-marine
transition zone, which is one of the most complicated areas on earth, because of the large …

Ichnology is the study of traces created in the substrate by living organisms. This is the first
book to systematically cover basic concepts and applications in both paleobiology and …

Analyses of deltaic facies successions highlight recurring ichnological patterns that reflect a
variety of physicochemical stresses imposed upon infaunal organisms by the interaction of …

The delta of the Fly River is tide dominated, both morphologically and sedimentologically:
the spring tidal range reaches 5 m, with near-bed tidal currents that commonly exceed 1 m/s …

The facies characteristics of the shallow marine environment are largely determined by the
complex interplay and relative importance of wave energy, tidal flux, storm magnitudes and …

Abstract The Tilje Formation (Early Jurassic; 120–300 m thick) consists predominantly of
heterolithic deposits and is thought to have accumulated in tide-dominated estuarine and …

Many modern deltas show complex morphologies and architectures related to the interplay
of river, wave and tidal currents. However, methods for extracting the signature of the …

Seilacherian Ichnofacies have been established, to date, for characterizing relatively stable
depositional settings. Environments characterized by temporally and spatially varying …

Application of 3D seismic reflection data to igneous systems in sedimentary basins has led
to a revolution in the understanding of mafic sill complexes. However, there is considerable …
