Feldspar Dissolution and Its Influence on Reservoirs: A Case Study of the Lower Triassic Baikouquan Formation in the Northwest Margin of the Junggar Basin, China by Meng Xiao, Xuanjun Yuan, Dawei Cheng, Songtao Wu, Zhenglin Cao, Yong Tang, Zongrui Xie

“…The acidic fluids needed for feldspar dissolution are mostly derived from organic acids associated with the source rocks and migrate to the good-permeability area of the reservoir; (2) the by-products of feldspar dissolution, such as authigenic clay minerals and authigenic quartz, are transported by pore water in a relatively open diagenetic system and then precipitated in a relatively closed diagenetic system; and (3) the clay minerals produced by feldspar dissolution in different diagenetic environments and diagenetic stages have different effects on the reservoir. …”

Landscape connectivity alters the evolution of density-dependent dispersal during pushed range expansions by Dahirel, Maxime, Bertin, Aline, Calcagno, Vincent, Duraj, Camille, Fellous, Simon, Groussier, Géraldine, Lombaert, Eric, Mailleret, Ludovic, Marchand, Anaël, Vercken, Elodie

“…As human influence reshapes communities worldwide, many species expand or shift their ranges as a result, with extensive consequences across levels of biological organization. Range expansions can be ranked on a continuum going from pulled dynamics, in which low-density edge populations provide the “fuel” for the advance, to pushed dynamics in which high-density rear populations “push” the expansion forward. …”
