Abstract The mid-Piacenzian Warm Period (mPWP: 3.3–3.0 Ma) is the most recent
geological analogue of ongoing climate change and has been the subject of considerable …

The stability evaluation of artificial submarine slope under wave load is a primary concern in
the construction of offshore structures such as submarine pipelines and immersed tunnels …

The central Apennines, an accretionary wedge overlying an area of slab detachment, are
characterized by prominent topography, active normal faulting, and high uplift rates …

Benthic mollusc assemblages of shallow marine successions host a large part of known
biodiversity of past marine ecosystems. Important as they are to understand community …

The integration of sedimentary facies analysis, ichnology and benthic mollusc quantitative
paleoecology allowed interpretation of factors that have controlled the deposition of the …

In the investigation of stratigraphic reservoirs, a significant discrepancy frequently exists
between the delineation of the formation pinch-out line as traced using the characteristics of …

Understanding species vulnerability to extinction is one of the goals of conservation. Here
we analyse a dataset of Plio-Pleistocene Mediterranean bivalve occurrences (families …

We investigated the biogeography of benthic foraminifera in a highly urbanized tropical
seascape, ie Hong Kong, in order to assess their utility as bioindicators relative to other …

The present study provides an example of how palaeopedology and facies analysis may be
integrated for the interpretation of a cyclothemic succession in the Upper Pliocene …

A regional sedimentological and sequence stratigraphic analysis is presented in this paper
to provide new insights into the morphological complexity and sedimentary mechanisms of …
