The mixed sediment content of the Lucaogou Formation is unusual due to the large amounts of tuffaceous material, which makes the system more complex than the commonly mixed siliciclastic-carbonate rocks. In this study, the volcanic material acts as a third end-member component in a multi-source mixed sedimentary system.
Lake - Sedimentation, Erosion, Deposition: Lake sediments are comprised mainly of clastic material (sediment of clay, silt, and sand sizes), organic debris, chemical precipitates, or combinations of these. The relative abundance of each depends upon the nature of the local drainage basin, the climate, and the relative age of a lake. The sediments of a lake in a …
where is the average dry bulk density and is sedimentation rate, which is the observed thickness of a unit divided by the depositional time (difference in age between its base and top). MARs account for changes in porosity during burial, so MARs are a more useful proxy for original input at the seabed. This paper quantifies MARs in Neogene …

Rates of sedimentation are measured in three main contexts. The first is the study of sedimentation systems that are active today; the second is what has come to be known as source-to-sink study; the third is the study of the relationship between sediment accumulation rate and measurement timespan. Different measurement strategies are …

Definition. Sedimentation and diagenesis are the act and process of forming sedimentary rocks distributed on the surface of Earth's crust. During sedimentation, fluid sediment composed of particles flows, deposits, and accumulates with varying degrees of sorting. The accumulating sediments forms layers and becomes buried.
The most well-developed carbonate sequence within the basin is the Cambrian-Ordovician carbonate, which is also the key intervals for oil and gas exploration [31–33]. The Ordovician carbonate reservoirs in the Shunnan (SN) area, located in the central uplift of the Tarim Basin, are selected in this study, as shown in Figure1, based on [33,34].

The strata mixing is referred to deposits where the two heterolithic fractions are organized in meter-to decameter-scale interbedded siliciclastic and carbonate beds and/or bedsets. Compositional and strata mixing occur at three main scales of observation – bed (core-plug), lithofacies (core/well-log) and stratigraphic (seismic) scale - (Fig. 1).
Carbonate and silicate rock weathering processes consume atmospheric CO 2, which is a net sink of the global carbon cycle [33, 34]. ... the labelled markers have also been widely used in the wetlands for the sedimentation flux measurements.
