... geochemically from the oils, whereas those of the Jurassic Barnea Formation are similar. Some Barnea samples are apparently stained by oil, whereas others are indigenous rock extracts. Therefore, we concluded that the Barnea samples represent both the rock type from which the oils were derived and the migration...

...Fig. 5. Depth maps constructed from well and seismic data for ( a ) the top of Qeren Formation (Aalenian) and ( b ) the top of Barnea Formation (Bathonian), on the Levant margin, in the southern coastal plain of Israel. The maps show the change in the evolution of the Jurassic shelf, which...

... formations. The topmost part of the Ustyurt plateau surface is armored by a middle Sarmatian limestone slab with varying hypsometric surfaces, locally either descending to absolute elevations of 50–70 m, or rising to 210 m. The elevation variations are associated with the orogenic process still active today...

... in the Ashqelon-Barnea area and for Miocene channel sandstones near Gaza. Lapidoth drilled a fourth well on a surface structure in the Negev. The well was abandoned in Paleozoic strata, having drilled through a reversed fault a few hundred meters above TD. A formation test was followed by a fishing job which...

... the influence of late Neogene rapid glacioeustatic sea-level oscillations. Thirty cyclothems of the Matemateaonga Formation (late Miocene–early Pliocene) have been identified through a 960 m interval of the core. Temporal patterns in both lithofacies distribution and macrofaunal paleoecology indicate a close...

...., 1997) . Researchers typically use photography, high-speed camera methods, and other approaches to collect numerous multiphase flow pattern parameters ( Barnea et al., 1982 ; Davarzani and Miller, 1983 ; Barnea, 1986 ; Xie et al., 1990) . Trallero (1995) divides oil-water two-phase flow patterns...

... Formation, northeast Japan, is described. This new species represents one of the oldest body fossils of pholadoidean boring-bivalves and the first fossil record from the Jurassic in the circum-Pacific regions. The authochthonous occurrence in fossilized wood, the presence of microscopic file-like sculpture...

... from the Zohar limestone. This formation is a low-energy deposit, corresponding with zone Z of Irwin’s model of epeiric, clear water sedimentation ( Irwin, 1965 ). The applicability of this model to the upper Bathonian reservoir beds of the Zohar fields has been demonstrated ( Barzel and Friedman, 1970...

... marine shales (Barnea Formation) that are interpreted to be the principal source for the oils in the Helez Field in Palestine ( Bein & Sofer 1987 ). Cretaceous source rocks include both organic-rich Lower Cretaceous black shales, which can be correlated to the oil-prone Geva’am Formation in Palestine...

... of the study area, the Jr2 strata are composed of limestone with some interbedded shale of the Daya, Barnea, and Shederot formations ( Figure 6 ). Micropaleontologic and sedimentologic studies show that the carbonate facies of these stratigraphic units were deposited in shallow-marine inner- to outer-shelf...

.... Molluscan associations representing this transition occur in the lower Pleistocene Omma Formation in central Japan and suggest that there were two patterns of faunal change. The first was when warm-water species migrated into the Sea of Japan and lived along with cold-water species, accompanied...

Individual phosphorite deposits with specific stromatolitic assemblages occur isolated from one another, often surrounded...

... of pelagic mudstones known as the Masia del Garrofero Formation (Cater, 1987 ), which correspond with the informally named ‘Tap’ marls that occur extensively in the Eastern Betics. The age of this unit is late Langhian to early Tortonian (Cater, 1987 ; Ott d’Estevou et al., 1988 ; Geel et al., 1992...

... enclaves define arrays that are complementary to the arrays defined by the tonalites along the transect, suggesting that they may be cumulates associated with the formation of some of the tonalites ( Figs. 5a and 5b ). The number density of enclaves across the transect decreases from 5–7.5/m 2 beyond 25 m...

... and some of the formations are mere prolongations from onshore, but others reflect important geologic changes in the seaward direction. The eastern Mediterranean basin contains a major junction between the crustal plates of Africa, Eurasia, and Arabia, postdating the Tethys Sea, but lying, nevertheless...

... and Derin (1984) considered these findings to indicate the onset of Triassic rifting. Basinal facies are found in coastal and offshore Israel ( Figure 3 C). Spiculitic black micritic limestones of Bajocian age (Barnea Formation; Derin, 1974 ) represent southeastern Mediterranean deep-water facies...
