Despite recent advances in wetland studies, ancient wetland deposits are still not well documented, and their facies characteristics are poorly registered. Sedimentary facies and sequence stratigraphic analysis of the Mi...

Sediment deposits formed mainly under the influence of bottom currents (contourites) are widely used as high-resolution archives for reconstructing past ocean conditions. However, the driving processes of Contourite Depo...

Studies of the palaeobiology of titanosaur eggs are significantly more common than studies of titanosaur-egg-bearing strata. Nevertheless, the latter provide significant insight into palaeoenvironmental conditions associ...

The study of the pre-Mesozoic geological history of NE Mexico offers the opportunity to reconstruct the processes that occurred at the NW margin of Gondwana. The Huizachal–Peregrina Anticlinorium, which is located west...

The topographic growth of mountain ranges at convergent margins results from the complex interaction between the motion of lithospheric plates, crustal shortening, rock uplift and exhumation. Constraints on the timing an...

In this study, the chemical and isotopic composition of thermo-mineral springs from the Rosario de la Frontera hydrothermal system was used to construct a conceptual model describing the source regions the thermal fluids...

Preservation of arthropod cuticles is of paramount importance for taphonomic interpretations in which the fossil record of the chitin-protein complex is considered a key molecular signature of the group studied. In this ...

Submarine landslides can generate complicated patterns of seafloor relief that influence subsequent flow behaviour and sediment dispersal patterns. In subsurface studies, the term mass transport deposits (MTDs) is common...

Abstract Submarine fan deposits are important archives of Earth's history and serve as the record of turbidity current events that transfer large amounts of terrestrial sediment and carbon into the ocean. The geomorpholo...

The Argentine Continental Margin (ACM) comprises one of the largest contourite depositional systems worldwide, with evidences of strong gravitational downslope and alongslope sediment transport processes. Strong bottom c...

The Península Valdés region is situated in an intraplate position of the South American Plate, in the Patagonian foreland close to the Argentine Continental shelf. This region has a complex geotectonic evolution that s...

The analysis of the pre-Andean history of the Central Andes shows a complex tectonic evolution. The basement of the Andean continental margin was formed by the accretion of Precambrian blocks during the formation of Rodi...
