Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Detailed sequence stratigraphic analyses indicate that the lower Cretaceous Falher F unit is made up of 4 sandy/pebbly prograding parasequences labeled F1, F2, F3, and F4. Of the parasequences only F3 has a significant (>2m) thickness of conglomerate. Vertical lithological successions through a conglomeratic section suggest that the F3 pebbles were deposited on the upper shoreface and foreshore as part of a conformable, shoaling-upwards package of rocks. Detailed mapping, using core, well logs, production data and 3-D seismic, show that the conglomerates form a 4 km wide linear body deposited along a linear topographic trend. This topographic trend coincides with the northern edge of the underlying upper Devonian Gold Creek (Smokey) reef trend. Furthermore, the longshore termination of the conglomerate is located at a NW-SE trending structural feature that was active during Falher F deposition. Two models could explain the development of a thick conglomerate buildup along a linear topographic step. The first suggests that southward (transgressive) movement of a pebbly barrier was halted at the topographic feature. The second suggests that when the F3 parasequence shoreline arrived at the topographic step progradation rates slowed significantly. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
