The ephemeral nature of most sedimentation processes and the fragmentary character of
the sedimentary record are of first-order importance. Despite a basic uniformity of external …

Although the similarities between depositional processes and products as well as the
analogous controls on basin-filling and evolution appear to have enjoyed great uniformity …

Micro‐organisms producing microbially induced sedimentary structures, particularly
epibenthic cyanobacteria, are not facies‐dependent and could flourish in any environment if …

Microbial mat-related structures (MRS) in siliciclastics have been investigated from four
Proterozic formations in India, namely the Marwar Supergroup, the Vindhyan Supergroup …

Geochemistry of the Sub-Himalayan foreland basin Siwalik sediments has been used for
interpreting the nature of the source rocks. This study has shown that the compositional …

The role of biological influences in forming carbonate rocks (eg, Altermann et al., 2006) is
almost universally accepted within geology. In contrast, many see clastic sedimentary rocks …

Tectonic activity and sediment supply have significantly affected the rifted basin fillings and
hydrocarbon accumulations. The Huanghekou Sag in the southeastern Bohai Bay Basin is a …

Abstract The Paleoproterozoic Sokoman Formation (ca. 1.88 Ga) of the Labrador Trough,
eastern Canada, is a ca. 100-m-thick succession of interbedded iron formation and fine …

Ubiquitous microorganisms, especially cyanobacteria preferably grow on the sediment
surface thereby producing microbial mats. In the absence of grazers and bioturbators …

The present exposures of the (Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic) Purana basins of
Peninsular India occupy nearly 1.5× 10 5 km 2 area in the Indian subcontinent, with an …
