On the mineralogical and petrological properties of the younger loess in Hungary in Loess and the Quaternary: Chinese and Hungarian case studies.
Loess in Hungary is divided into younger and older loess. The younger loess is subdivided by five forest steppe paleosols. A brief account is given of the mineralogical and petrological and grain size investigations of the individual horizons. (DLO).
which are not seen in active volcanoes. Many of the classic localities of igneous petrology are also described. This book is profusely illustrated with maps, tables and diagrams, and contains an extensive bibliography, making it not only a textbook
The petrology, geochemistry, and mineralogy of North Atlantic basalts: a discussion based on IPOD Leg 49
Whole-rock geochemical data were obtained for 178samples selected from the petrologically freshest parts of most of the flow units recovered from the nine holes. These data include 170 major element analyses (XRF) and 174trace-element analyses (XRF
Petrology, geochemistry and environmental significance of silcrete-calcrete intergrade duricrusts at Kang Pan and Tswaane, central Kalahari, Botswana
This paper presents the first in-depth investigation of cement relationships within Kalahari silcrete-calcrete intergrade duricrusts at a profile scale, through the detailed analysis of the petrology and geochemistry of duricrusts and bedrock
Distribution, petrology and mode of development of silcretes (sarsens and puddingstones) on the eastern South Downs, UK
. The distribution, occurrence and macromorphology of the silcretes on the eastern South Downs are described, followed by a general account of their petrology, micromorphology and geochemical characteristics. Subsequently, the types of silcrete present in the region
Deglaciation ; Fluvioglacial features ; Glacial features ; Glacial tectonics ; Microstructure ; Moraine ; Petrology ; Poland ; Terminology
Based on research results obtained in west central Poland, the aim of this paper is to discuss in brief the existing terms and to propose a new terminology. It is oriented towards genetic and petrologic criteria, adapted for unconsolidated deposits
Impact cratering phenomenon for the Ries multiring structure based on constraints of geological, geophysical, and petrological studies and the nature of the impacting body in Impact and explosion cratering. Planetary and terrestrial implications.
Author investigates the geomorphological characteristics of the Apuseni mountains (Romania). Among others the types of relief structures and the petrological characteristics of the different ranges of the mountains are examined. - (JS)
, suggesting a re-advance. Petrological data suggest also a change of ice flow direction from north-south during the major advance to northeast-southwest during the readvance. Thus now, almost all marginal zones of the Late Weichselian glaciation in western
