Influence of Host-Rock Texture on the Morphology of Carbonate Concretions in a Meteoric Diagenetic Environment

The integrated stratigraphic-petrographic–geochemical study of Quaternary marine terraces that have undergone well-constrained sea-level and water-table oscillation(s) over geologically short time periods can provide important clues on diagenetic processes at the marine–continental interface. The Punta di i Cani marine terrace (Quaternary; Saint-Florent, Corsica) unconformably overlies the well-cemented, low-permeability arenites of the Miocene …
