Actinopterygian and acanthodian fishes from the Viséan of East Kirkton

Most specimens consist of isolated bones and scales, but articulated remains of an acanthodian and actinopterygians were found in Units 37 and 38 of the East Kirkton Limestone. The faunal composition is characteristically Oil-Shale in aspect and resembles that of Broxburn (Pumpherston).

East Kirkton

The East Kirkton Limestone in the upper part of the West Lothian Oil Shale formation is a thinly bedded freshwater limestone. It lies within a thick succession of lavas and volcanic ash. Black mudstones lying above the limestone were also …

The palaeoenvironment of East Kirkton, West Lothian, …

ABSTRACT Stable isotope data from the East Kirkton succession are used to elucidate the extent of hot-spring influence in the palaeoenvironment by constraining conditions of deposition of the silica and the formation of sulphides. Petrographically silica occurs as chert laminae thought to be primary, and as patchy chert considered as replacive. No …

Geophysical Survey | Definition & Investigation Methods

Geophysical surveys can be on earth's surfaces, in boreholes, airborne (surveys carried in the air using helicopters or aircraft), or shipborne (surveys carried in water bodies using ships).

Palaeoecology of the Viséan of East Kirkton, West Lothian, …

The lake may have been generally cool, though of unusual water chemistry, as a result of which the spherulitic East Kirkton Limestone precipitated. At times, however, water temperatures may have risen sharply through localised hot-spring activity; both factors deterred 'normal' aquatic life.

Joint inversion of EM and magnetic data for near‐surface …

Magnetic and electromagnetic measurements are influenced by magnetic susceptibility and, thus, are widely used in geophysical surveys for archeology or pedology.

Preservation. GLAHM A2854 is preserved as a compression fossil on the surface of a thin, grey bed of calcareous tuff. The light red–brown coloration of the harvestman is analogous to that of the scorpion fossils etched from the East Kirkton limestone and suggests that some constituent of the original cuticle still remains, rather than it being a wholly …

IX.—The East Kirkton Limestone

I. Introduction and Previous Research The East Kirkton Limestone is an impersistent bed of peculiar lithology exposed about one mile east of Bathgate. In this area, included in the Geological Survey six-inch quarter-sheet Linlithgow IX NE., the strike of the Carboniferous rocks is approximately north-south. The maximum extent of the limestone in this …

4. East Kirkton Quarry, near Bathgate

The East Kirkton Limestone found in the quarry formed during a period of volcanic activity around 330 million years ago, when a pile of basalt lava flows and ash layers built up in this area. Layers of calcium carbonate were precipitated as a result of the hot spring activity, forming a thinly bedded limestone which is exposed in the quarry.

Electrical Resistivity Surveys: Basic Principles, Applications

Electrical resistivity surveys are geophysical techniques used to measure the subsurface electrical resistivity of soils and rocks. The method involves injecting an electrical current into the ground and measuring the resulting voltage. By understanding how materials resist the flow of electrical current, geophysicists can infer the subsurface …
