Observations from ROV dives in the Linosa Trough showed the fossil and modern coral communities thriving under overhangs and in large caves, and they were particularly common in volcanic bedrock sequences.
Lithology of the bedrock stratigraphic sequence varies greatly over short distances and required a flexible response for foundation design.
They could be used effectively and inexpensively to interpret the area's bedrock geologic sequence using the encountered consecutive electrically resistive and conductive anomalies.
At Pyhä-Nattanen, the sampling sequence included bedrock material and grus taken from within horizontal cracks, which are so prevalent at the site as to make the tor resemble a stack of pancakes.
The method is applied to catchments draining the southeast margin of southern Africa (KwaZulu-Natal region) because of the region's rather uniform runoff, a rather well-constrained denudational history and a relatively simple coastward sequence of bedrock geology.
This study was designed to determine As concentrations in a black shale, black slate and black phyllite sequence that comprises the bedrock aquifer system of the Taconic Mountain region of southwestern Vermont and adjacent New York State.
Complex thrust sequences, interfering fold-sets, brecciated bedrock and widespread shear structures superimposed on this ice-marginally deformed sequence record subsequent deformation in a subglacial shear zone.
The general weathering profile in the study area irrespective of bedrock type is mainly three (3 -layered sequence, namely the topsoil, the saprolite and the bedrock.
According to Wahrhaftig's hypothesis, bare granite weathers slower than soil-mantled granite; thus random erosional exposure of bare rock leads to an alternating sequence of steep, slowly weathering bedrock "steps" and gently sloped, but rapidly weathering, soil-mantled "treads".
In the last example, the fracture intensity categories of dam bedrock were partitioned by applying the model of multiple sequences.
