TL;DR: In this paper, the first major input of sands into the basin, in the > 1 km thick deltaic Barail Formation, occurred at 38 Ma, providing a well dated accessible sediment record 17 Myr older than the previously described 21 Ma sediments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Provenance of the Tertiary sedimentary rocks of the Indo-Burman Ranges, Burma (Myanmar): Burman arc or Himalayan-derived?
Ruth Allen,Yani Najman,Andrew Carter,Dan N. Barfod,Mike J. Bickle,Hazel J. Chapman,Eduardo Garzanti,Giovanni Vezzoli,Sergio Andò,Randall R. Parrish,Randall R. Parrish +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, thermochronological analyses on detrital grains, isotopic analyses on bulk rock, and petrographic and heavy mineral data indicate that the Palaeogene Indo-Burman Ranges contain a significant component of arc-derived material, interpreted as derived from the Burmese portion of the Mesozoic-Tertiary arc to the east.
Journal ArticleDOI
The record of Himalayan erosion preserved in the sedimentary rocks of the Hatia Trough of the Bengal Basin and the Chittagong Hill Tracts, Bangladesh
Yani Najman,Ruth Allen,Edward A F Willett,Andrew Carter,Dan N. Barfod,Eduardo Garzanti,Jan R. Wijbrans,Mike J. Bickle,Giovanni Vezzoli,Sergio Andò,Graham J H Oliver,M J Uddin +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a basin-wide seismic stratigraphic framework for the Neogene rocks, calibrated by biostratigraphy, which divides the succession into three seismically distinct and regionally correlatable Megasequences (MS).

Statistics for the biological and environmental sciences: improving service teaching for postgraduates
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted an evaluation of statistics service teaching within the Lancaster Environment Centre at Lancaster University and made recommendations for how to make the course more suitable for occasional users in the biological sciences.
