  1. 1. Investigation of Thermal Maturity of  Organic Matter at the Cambro Ordovician Transition in the Zagros Basin, Iran

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Niall Gibbons; [2021]
    Keywords : acritarchs; thermal maturity; Zagros Basin; hydrocarbons; source rocks; paleoenvironment;

    Abstract : The thermal maturity of sediments from the upper Cambrian to lower Ordovician Mila and Ilbeyk  formations in the Zagros Basin in southwestern Iran is evaluated in this thesis. A number of low-cost,  fast, optical evaluation methods are utilised to assess their effectiveness for providing accurate, well  constrained thermal maturity results. READ MORE

  2. 2. Analysis of spatial-temporal pattern of Land Surface Temperature (LST) due to NDVI and elevation in Ilorin, Nigeria

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Elijah A Njoku; [2019]
    Keywords : GIS; LST; Vegetation cover; Ilorin; Elevation; Urban Heat Island; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The rate of global urbanization in the 21st century has been unprecedented especially in the African and the Asian continents. Urbanization typically causes a removal of natural vegetation and replacement of same with impervious and non-evaporative urban materials with high heat capacity and low solar reflectivity.

  4. 4. Sequence stratigraphy, palynology and biostratigraphy across the Ordovician-Silurian boundary in the Röstånga-1 core, southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Ahmed Salah Badawy; [2012]
    Keywords : avsättningsmiljöer; stratigrafi; Sweden; Scania; Röstånga; Silurian; Ordovician; TAI; Thermal Alteration Index; palynology; sea level changes; stratigraphy; depositional environments; havsnivåförändringar; palynologi; Ordovicium; Silur; Skåne; Sverige.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : A multiproxy study on sedimentary rocks spanning the Ordovician-Silurian boundary has been performed on material from the Röstånga-1 core, with the aims to improve the biostratigraphical and sedimentological framework and to interpret the depositional environment during this interval in Earth’s history. The sedimentary succession in the Röstånga-1 core is developed in the Scanian Lithofacies Belt and is considered an excellent upper Middle Ordovician-Lower Silurian reference section for southernmost Sweden.
