Published in 2018 at "CATENA"

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2018.06.034

Abstract: Abstract Iron-rich duricrust profiles are commonly located on old flat surfaces. They promote landscape stability by the protective action of ferricrete, providing important records of multiple soil and geomorphic processes, as well as paleoclimatic events.… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Natural Gas Geoscience"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jnggs.2019.11.004

Abstract: Abstract Geopressure prediction is crucial because all drilling programs require estimation of abnormal pressured zones. The use of rock fabric deformational relics at variable depths to determine heterogeneity in overpressure zones in reservoir has not… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Sedimentary Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.sedgeo.2017.06.010

Abstract: Abstract The micromorphology of quartz grains in a sedimentary environment is determined by the transport mechanism and the nature of weathering. Both these aspects change during the transport history of grains. Thus important questions include… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Quaternaire"

DOI: 10.4000/quaternaire.8008

Abstract: Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) applied to optically bleached quartz grains extracted from sediment provides an age estimate for the last exposure of sediment to sunlight. This method has been increasingly used in archaeological, geological and… read more here.
