Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment"
DOI: 10.1007/s10064-020-01874-z
Abstract: Red-bed mudstone is widely distributed throughout the Three Gorges Reservoir Area, China. This geological material easily disintegrates into fragments during engineering activities. The potential factors that influence the disintegration (grain composition, slake durability index, grain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.palaeo.2017.04.011
Abstract: Previous understanding that stratigraphic variability in lacustrine sequences is primarily caused by depositional processes governed by regional tectonics and climatic change remains to be tested on microscopic scale. Here we study the upper fourth Member… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.palaeo.2019.05.004
Abstract: Abstract Successions of Mesozoic and Paleozoic radiolarian-bedded cherts display a “binary” cyclic hierarchy of cm-scale chert and mudstone couplets. Some of these couplet successions contain an apparent imprint of Milankovitch cycles, in which the couplets… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-65325-1
Abstract: Mudstone is very similar to shale except it lacks sheet bedding. Shale gas is widely concerned and successfully exploited commercially in the world, while gas-bearing mudstone is rarely paid attention. To evaluate the reservoir characteristics… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/sed.12614
Abstract: Deep-water mudstones are often considered as background sediments, deposited by vertical suspension fallout, and the range of transport and depositional processes are poorly understood compared to their shallow-marine counterparts. Here, we present a dataset from… read more here.
