The reliability of geomechanical models and engineering designs depend heavily on high-
quality data. In geomechanical projects, collecting and analyzing laboratory data is crucial in …

This study focuses on the Jurassic (Huayacocotla and Pimienta Formations) and Upper
Cretaceous (Méndez Formation) shales from the Molango Region, Hidalgo, Mexico. In this …

This paper contributes to understanding the intractable problems in provenance study due to
hydraulic sorting and geochemical heterogeneity in medium, fine, and very fine sands. For …

Petrographic, major, trace, and rare-earth element geochemistry of sands from three
beaches of México (Cazones, Acapulco, and Bahía Kino) were studied to determine their …

An integrated petrographic and geochemical study of the Ahwaz Sandstone Member
ofOligocene-Miocene age, Asmari Formation in Zagros, southwest Iran, was carried out to …

Major, trace and rare earth elements (REE) study was carried out on the Lower Cretaceous
Dalmiapuram Formation in southeastern India in order to understand the geochemical …

The statistically correct handling of compositional data requires log–ratio transformation
whereas the multivariate technique of linear discriminant analysis (LDA) assumes a normal …

We investigate extreme studentized and normalized residuals as test statistics for outlier
detection in the Gauss–Markov model possibly not of full rank. We show how critical values …

The elemental content (major, trace and rare earth elements) of 35 Aptian–Albian limestone
samples from the Mural Formation has been determined to provide information on …

A brief critical review is presented of the geological, geophysical, geochemical, and plate
tectonic evidence for the origin and evolution of the central part of the Mexican Volcanic Belt …
