Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The Late Barremian-Early Aptian of the Jebel Serdj was studied in detail regarding to lithology, microfacies, mineralogy and geochemistry in order to reconstruct the paleoenvironmental change of the Pre-Selli Event. The studied section is about 37 m-thick and it is consisting of limestone and marlstone interbeds spanning the latest Barremian-Early Aptian.During the latest Barremian, kaolinite/illite intensity ratios show high values possibly indicating a warming trend followed then by decreasing values that may indicate a cooling trend. During the Early Aptian, this cooling trend is reverted into humid/warming trend during the Selli event.During the Late Barremian, the low abundance of Ti/Al and K/Al ratios and the enrichment of some elements such as Ba, Cu and Ni suggests that the studied section is characterized by a high productivity, and a minimal detrital inputs.During the Late Barremian, the δ13C increases sporadically and is associated with enrichments in some redox-sensitive indices U/Th, V/V + Ni, Ni/Co and V/Cr indicating the presence of intermittent dysoxic to anoxic conditions. |
