1. 1. Archaeological dental calculus reveals patterns of dietary shifts related to the farming transition in Africa

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Ivany Jocelyne Argueta Mejia; [2023]
   Keywords : dental calculus; ancient DNA; oral microbiome; shotgun sequencing; biofilm; metagenomics;

   Abstract : Archaeological dental calculus represents a depositional environment that entraps oral microbes, and debris of dietary, environmental, and cultural material that entered the mouth throughout the host’s life. Hence, they represent valuable archives of information about the host’s lifestyle, health, and environment. READ MORE

5. 4. Mapping of Lower Cretaceous (Knurr Sandstone) turbidite lobes using Seismic Stratigraphy and prospectivity along the southern Loppa High Margin, Hammerfest Basin, Barents Sea, Norway

   University essay from Geofysik

   Author : Nauman Sattar; [2008]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The Hammerfest Basin was formed through downfaulting in Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous times, allowing the deposition and preservation of Jurassic sediments which later were covered by thick Cretaceous sequences filling in the basin. This study has been conducted along the southern margin of the Loppa High to develop a complete sequence stratigraphic framework and to map Early Cretaceous Knurr Formation turbidite lobes along the slope of the High.
