Dépôts carbonatés microbiens en domaine lacustre et fluviatile : fabriques et facteurs de contrôle

2020

The non-marine carbonates related to microbial activity display a large range of morphologies and compositions and accumulate in various settings (freshwater, alkaline, and saline lakes, fluvial environments, thermal and freshwater springs, …). The variety of non-marine microbial carbonates and their particularity led to propose numerous and complex terminologies and classifications, making their use complicated and restrictive for the interpretation of depositional settings. Mineralization of these carbonates results from the interaction between biotic factors (intrinsic) and environmental factors (extrinsic and external) at multi-scales. The first aim of this work was to characterize morp…

Algunas microestructuras presentes en las costras calcareas del piedemonte de betera (provincia de valencia)

1988

Las formaciones aluviales que constituyen el piedemonte de betera, situado al norte de la provincia de valencia, presentan a techo de sus secuencias sedimentarias importantes acumulaciones carbonatadas. Las diferentes muestras que se han analizado desde un punto de vista micromorfologico, pertenecientes a las cinco macrofacies descritas en los perfiles seleccionados, permiten reconocer gran variedad de microestructuras. De todas ellas aqui se detallan las que aparecen con mayor frecuencia, tales como laminaciones, oolitica-pisolitica, grietas de retraccion y estructura de raices. Estas microestructuras sugieren condiciones subaereas en la genesis de las costras. (a)

Revealing the pace of river landscape evolution during the Quaternary: recent developments in numerical dating methods

2016

During the last twenty years, several technical developments have considerably intensified the use of numerical dating methods for the Quaternary. The study of fluvial archives has greatly benefited from these enhancements, opening new dating horizons for a range of archives at distinct time scales and thereby providing new insights into previously unanswered questions. In this contribution, we separately present the state of the art of five numerical dating methods that are frequently used in the fluvial context: radiocarbon, Luminescence, Electron Spin Resonance (ESR), 230Th/U and terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides (TCN) dating. We focus on the major recent developments for each technique th…

Jets interacting with vegetation in the rotating LEGI platform

2019

Rivers and wastewater discharges flowing into lakes and coastal waters strongly affect aquatic ecosystems, based on their transport of turbulence, tracers and sediment particles. Mixing and spreading of outflows have an even greater impact when the receiving site is obstructed by vegetation canopies or mussel cultivation farms. Thus, a thorough knowledge of the interaction between effluents and receiving bodies is required to mitigate impacts and promote best environmental management practices, also following the 2015 EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive.

Formation processes at a high resolution Middle Paleolithic site: Cueva Antón (Murcia, Spain)

2013

Cueva Anton is a Middle Paleolithic rockshelter located in the valley of the River Mula (Murcia, Spain). The archeological investigation of the site, which began with salvage work in 1991, resumed in 2006 and is still ongoing, uncovered a succession spanning most of MIS 3 and MIS 4 (ca. 75–36 ka) and featuring a well preserved human occupation record. This paper presents the first information about site stratigraphy and site formation processes. Geoarcheological data collected in the field and through micromorphological observation show that the archeological succession at Cueva Anton is mainly composed of alluvial sediments, with thin intercalations of gravitational and slope material. The…

Post-mortem enamel surface texture alteration during taphonomic processes—do experimental approaches reflect natural phenomena?

2022

Experimental approaches are often used to better understand the mechanisms behindand consequences of post-mortem alteration on proxies for diet reconstruction.Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is such a dietary proxy, using dental wearfeatures in extant and extinct taxa to reconstruct feeding behaviour and mechanicalfood properties. In fossil specimens especially, DMTA can be biased by post-mortemalteration caused by mechanical or chemical alteration of the enamel surface. Herewe performed three different dental surface alteration experiments to assess the effectof common taphonomic processes by simplifying them: (1) tumbling in sedimentsuspension to simulate fluvial transport, (2) s…

Genetic diversity of two perch Perca fluviatilis populations of the Latgale region

2015

Molecular markers based on retrotransposons possibility of integration into genomes of many organisms are commonly used for genetic analysis of different species. The aim of this study was to test possibility of use those markers in perch and detect genetic diversity of populations of two lakes of the Latgale region of Latvia: Cirišs and Sventes. The distance between the lakes is nearly 60 km, they belong to the same Daugava river basin but are different from ecological point of view. Forty two blood samples of <em>Perca fluviatilis </em>were collected altogether. Extracted DNA was analyzed using inter-PBS amplification technique with specifically selected retrotransposon-based …
