This research demonstrates the value of laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) as a research tool in osteological studies, and diagenetic studies in particular. LSCM combines properties of light and scanning electron microscopy by... more
Ancient bone bioapatite is a potential source of diverse and significant elemental and isotopic data that could be used to provide information on ancient chronologies, paleoenvironments, and paleodiets. However, buried... more
Article published in the April issue of a South African archaeological magazine, The Digging Stick.
Compressional and shear-wave velocities ( V p and V s) of 210 minicores of carbonates from different areas and ages were measured under variable confining and pore-fluid pressures. The lithologies of the samples range from unconsolidated... more
The factors affecting the amounts and types of organic matter in lacustrine sediments are summarized in this review, and synthesis, of published studies. Biota living in the lake and in its watershed are the sources of the organic... more
The book is a collection of 13 scientific articles presenting the problems of the weathering zone of anhydrite and gypsum rocks on the example of their exposures in western Ukraine, Poland, Spain, Canada and Russia. Most of the articles... more
O principal propósito deste estudo é descrever a geometria e a mineralogia associada ao meio poroso bem como identificar possíveis mecanismos de dano a formação no Membro Carmópolis (Cretáceo Inferior) no campo de petróleo de Siririzinho,... more
Salt beds and salt allochthons are transient features in most sedimentary basins, which through their dissolution can carry, focus and fix base metals. The mineralisation can be subsalt, intrasalt or suprasalt, and the salt body or its... more
Portable X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (XRFS) was applied to the skeletal remains of 13 bog bodies and their bog burial environments. The objective was to create a better understanding of Northern European bog environmental chemistry... more
Aspek mikrofasies dan diagenesis batuan karbonat Anggota Batugamping Formasi Pamutuan telah dipelajari guna mengetahui mekanisme pengendapan batuan dan sejarah proses geologi paska pengendapan batuan. Sampel-sampel batugamping yang telah... more
Mollusk shells excavated from archeological sites have been used to reconstruct paleoenvironment, human foraging , and migratory patterns. To retrieve information on past environment or human behavior, chemical signatures such as oxygen... more
The results on the elemental and mineralogical compositions of clays from Central Uganda differed from those from the volcanic sediments of the Mt. Elgon in Eastern Uganda. Utilisation of the two types of clays should be strict after... more
The Upper Cretaceous of the Umbria-Marche Basin (Italy) consists of an alternation of calcareous and siliceous fine-grained sedimentary rocks in which the calcareous lithologies are predominant. The Cenomanian succession is dominated by... more
