The Dinantian stratigraphy of the East Midlands: a seismostratigraphic approach
TL;DR: In this paper, six tectonically controlled seismic sequences have been identified in the Dinantian succession of the Widmerpool Gulf, East Midlands and they have also been recognized in outcrop sections in Derbyshire and the Bowland Basin.

Optical properties of Scolecodonts and their use as indicators of thermal maturity
F. Goodarzi,A.C. Higgins +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a suite of scolecodont concentrates with known Conodont Alteration Index was determined using a reflected light microscope, indicating that these properties can be used to determine the maturity of sediments.

H. A. Armstrong,Mark A. Purnell +1 more
TL;DR: Conodont faunas from Dinantian strata of the Northumberland Trough and Tweed Basin are described in this article, where five zones are correlated with the standard British stages and where possible with European and American sections.

The Lower Carboniferous Stainmore Basin, N. England: extensional basin tectonics and sedimentation
TL;DR: Recently released industry seismic data image a 6 km thick Dinantian succession in the Stainmore Basin, and are used to interpret deposition in response to extensional subsidence as discussed by the authors.
