The sensitivity of estimates of multiphase fluid and solid properties of porous rocks to image processing
X-ray microcomputed tomography (X-ray μ-CT) is a rapidly advancing technology that has been successfully employed to study flow phenomena in...
Application of redox sensitive proxies and carbonate clumped isotopes to Mesozoic and Palaeozoic radiaxial fibrous calcite cements
Ancient marine radiaxial calcite cements are commonly exploited as archives of marine porewater properties based on the argument that they...
Plotting and analyzing data trends in ternary diagrams made easy
Ternary plots are used in many fields of science to characterize a system based on three components. Triangular plotting is...
Relative performance of support vector machine, decision trees, and random forest classifiers for predicting production success in US unconventional shale plays
Unconventional shale reservoirs have revolutionized the energy industry. However, the prediction of production based on reservoir geology characterization has largely focused...
Mineral texture classification using deep convolutional neural networks: An application to zircons from porphyry copper deposits

Physicochemical Conditions of the Devonian-Jurassic Continental Deep Biosphere Tracked by Carbonate Clumped Isotope Temperatures of Granite-Hosted Carbonate Veins
Previous studies have shown that microorganisms thrive in oligotrophic fracture systems, and metabolisms include consumption and production of methane. In...
From Early Contraction to Post-Folding Fluid Evolution in the Frontal Part of the Bóixols Thrust Sheet (Southern Pyrenees) as Revealed by the Texture and Geochemistry of Calcite Cements
Structural, petrological and geochemical (δ13C, δ18O, clumped isotopes, 87Sr/86Sr and ICP-MS) analyses of fracture-related calcite cements and host rocks are...
Clay assemblage and oxygen isotopic constraints on the weathering response to the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum, east coast of North America
The Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum, a transient global warming event, is characterized by extensive evidence of a more active hydrological cycle....
Community software for challenging isotope analysis: First applications of ‘Easotope’ to clumped isotopes
The measurement of complex isotope systems, notably the multiply substituted isotopologues of CO2 derived from carbonates, is challenging from a...
A simple method for vaterite precipitation for isotopic studies: implications for bulk and clumped isotope analysis
