🚨 New Opinion Paper 🚨 Chiarella (2025) discusses the use of mixed siliciclastic-bioclastic sediments as an analogue for plastic-rich systems in natural environments. Read the full publication here: oap.unige.ch/journals/sdk... #Plastics #Sediments #Geology #Sedimentology #OpenAccess

🚨 New Paper 🚨 Hudson et al. apply integrated sequence stratigraphy and astrochronology technics to document palaeoclimatic changes at the Sinemurian-Pliensbachian boundary recorded in the Early Jurassic Redcar Mudstone Fm, UK. Read the full publication here: oap.unige.ch/journals/sdk...

The world of scientific publishing is changing fast, and Sedimentologika is part of that change! To accommodate our community needs, we’re glad to communicate that our journal is currently undergoing editorial structure changes, in addition to our current open call for Associate Editors.

We are advertising volunteering positions for three Associate Editors specialised in 1) Carbonate sedimentology & stratigraphy; 2) Slope to basin-floor processes; 3) Sediment outcrop imaging. Check out the full position details on our website: oap.unige.ch/journals/sdk...

🚨 New Paper 🚨 Okwara et al. discuss the downstream grain-size evolution and spatial facies partitioning of the Middle Jurassic wave-influenced Brent Group deltaic succession through subsurface data analysis. Read the full publication here: oap.unige.ch/journals/sdk...

cOAlition S has a working group to look at publishing models that do not rely on APCs. "One possible model is diamond open access, in which journals are run with financial support from funders or institutions, for example, and don’t charge fees to authors or readers." www.nature.com/articles/d41...
