Robust and adaptive approaches for Relative Geologic Time Estimation

For a geoscientist, the Relative Geologic Time (RGT) is an important tool to perform chronostratigraphic analysis. However, automatically estimate an RGT image from a seismic image can be a challenging task where we have to respect seismic features, the de ...

Cubic zirconia in >2370◦C impact melt records Earth’s hottest crust

Cyril Cayron

Bolide impacts influence primordial evolution of planetary bodies because they can cause instantaneous melting and vaporization of both crust and impactors. Temperatures reached by impact-generated silicate melts are unknown because meteorite impacts are e ...

Uranium Isotopes Fingerprint Biotic Reduction

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Yuheng Wang, Malgorzata Alicja Stylo

Knowledge of paleo-redox conditions in the Earth's history provides a window into events that shaped the evolution of life on our planet. The role of microbial activity in paleo-redox processes remains unexplored due to the inability to discriminate biotic ...

Statistical mechanics of wind wave-induced erosion in shallow tidal basins: Inferences from the Venice Lagoon

Andrea Rinaldo

Wind wave-induced erosional effects are among the chief landscape-forming processes in tidal biomorphodynamics. Wave-driven bottom erosion, in fact, controls the equilibrium elevation and dynamics of subtidal and tidal flat surfaces, and the impact of wave ...
