The Middle to Late Triassic of Central Saudi Arabia with emphasis on the Jilh Formation. Part II: sequence stratigraphy, depositional and structural history, correlations and paleo... by Le Nindre, Yves-Michel, Davies, Roger Brett, Issautier, Benoit, Krystyn, Leopold, Vaslet, Denis, Vrielynck, Bruno, Memesh, Abdullah

“…Similar conclusions are drawn for the Carnian and Norian transgressions.The improved geochronologic understanding enabled a reconstruction of the structural phases of the Jilh geohistory in four steps from Anisian to Norian, showing the relationships of retrogradation–progradation processes and tectonic pulses to hiatuses and periods of erosion. A synthetic sequence stratigraphy is proposed.…”

The global energy challenge: second-generation feedstocks on marginal lands for a sustainable biofuel production by Claudio Russo, Valerio Cirillo, Nausicaa Pollaro, Fabio Terribile, Andrea Chiodini, Albino Maggio

“…Using underutilized crops on marginal lands can also provide important ecological services, including improving soil fertility and water regulation, increasing biodiversity and reducing soil erosion. To fully exploit this option, it will be critical to calibrate plant growth models to estimate the potential biofuel production on marginal land from second-generation feedstock and to create tools for a more rational management of this land. …”
