(for Earth, especially) or distinct overburden of looseregolith. All of these overlaid layers would typically be far too thin to be reliably distinct in the depiction of this Earth-like planet, and the diagram depicts the surface details only as a 'painted on' blue/greens/browns/etc to ...
The 2.05 Ga Bushveld Complex in South Africa (Fig.1a) is the largest mafic–ultramafic layered intrusion in Earth’s crust; totalling to about 600,000 km3of igneous rocks25,26. The complex consists of several parts, the western, eastern and northern limbs being the largest, and is subdivi...
The research area is located in south-eastern Slovenia and belongs to the eastern extensions of the Slovenian Basin adjacent to the Adriatic Carbonate Platform. The studied section is 25 m thick and consists of grey, brownish and reddish pelagic limestones and calciturbidites, and two bentonite l...
Schematic diagram and principle of the SML Figure1Aillustrates brain tumor treatment as a key issue of medical ultrasound (Fig.1A). The significant aberration of ultrasound in brain severely degrades the acoustic beam, which is expected to be resolved through the introduction of SML. In Fig.1B...
As on Earth, the flux of interplanetary meteoroids can affect the ionospheric structure of other planets. The elec- tron density of many planets show multiple narrow layers below the main ionospheric peak which are similar, in magnitude, to the upper ones. These layers could be due to long-...
From bottom to top of an idealized section these are: the Marginal, Lower, Critical, Main and Upper zones17–19. Despite the utility at the regional scale of the broad zonal classification, the layers within them show numerous and complex variations in their spatial distribution20,21. The ...
the provenance of four intercalated tephra layers (T1–T4, in chronological order) containing either colorless or brown glass shards. Relative to primitive mantle, all glass shards are enriched in large-ion lithophile elements, such as Rb, Cs, and Pb, and depleted in high field-strength ...
Tephra layers within marine sediments provide information on past explosive eruptions, which is especially important in the case of remote island arcs wher
