Category:Codell Sandstone Member, Niobrara Formation?

Probably just a cut and paste error; but, as shown in the Denver Basin image in the category, the Codell is a locally lensing member of the Carlile Shale Formation. It is not a member of the Norbrara, anywhere, AFAIK (IS it considered a Niobrara member in the Dakota Hogback?)

Looking at the subcategories of Category:Carlile Shale Formation, this category should be renamed Category:Codell Sandstone.

Sorry, was an error. I'll rename it.Hornstrandir1 (talk) 03:22, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
Thanks. I was going to tell you some movie trivia about the Codell Sandstone, but it seems you are located in Eastern or Central Asia. 70.179.128.70 02:27, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Boulder beaches

Hi Hornstrandir1,

What do you call narrow belts of rocks and boulders at the base of sea cliffs? e.g.File:Starr-180505-3568-Tournefortia argentea-with corral rubble boulder beach snorkelers view coast-Punalau-Maui (28590257447).jpg and File:Starr-180505-3584-Casuarina equisetifolia-view bay-Honokahau-Maui (29605946968).jpg

Also File:Starr-180505-0684-Casuarina equisetifolia-with cinder layer and lava-Honokahau-Maui (29605755168).jpg

Are there general categories for this?

I put this under Category:Geology of Maui but I should be more specific: File:Starr-180505-3599-Casuarina equisetifolia-cinder layer above lava-Honokahau-Maui (43477078281).jpg

Thanks, Krok6kola (talk) 16:56, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Could be intertidal boulder fields or ~ boulder beaches and rockfall deposits in any case.Hornstrandir1 (talk) 18:58, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
Thanks! It's great that you are adding this interesting categories to the Commons. I must learn more about geology. Krok6kola (talk) 00:19, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

Question for you

Hello Hornstrandir1,

Do you have any ideas about the geological features of Category:Pamukkale i~n Turkey? It appears to have many interesting features, but I am unsure of the correct terminology. Krok6kola (talk) 19:06, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

Seem to be travertine terraces with hot water caused by volcanic activity. I could look for some literature about it.Hornstrandir1 (talk) 19:10, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
Seems to be a bit more complicated, see eg. here: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Anna-Gandin/publication/260082866_Evolution_of_a_fault-controlled_fissure-ridge_type_travertine_deposit_in_the_western_Anatolia_extensional_province_The_Cukurbag_fissure-ridge_Pamukkale_Turkey/links/5bfc9c3a458515b41d10717d/Evolution-of-a-fault-controlled-fissure-ridge-type-travertine-deposit-in-the-western-Anatolia-extensional-province-The-Cukurbag-fissure-ridge-Pamukkale-Turkey.pdf

Thanks. (Maybe you will look into it!) Does
this type of formation have a name? Krok6kola (talk) 19:31, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
Yes, they are called travertine terraces (like Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park).Hornstrandir1 (talk) 19:33, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
So the whole place is made up of travertine terraces. Yes, it is a lot like Mammoth Hot Springs. I should look more closely at Mammoth to see if there are ways to categorize the features. Thanks, Krok6kola (talk) 19:48, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

Sea ice under Glacio-marine sediment transport

Is it really useful to categorise all Sea ice under Glacio-marine sediment transport? Anybody looking for something to illustrate the latter will be searching for a needle in a hay stack. –LPfi (talk) 19:46, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Category:Volcanic sunsets in La Palma

Hi, thanks for the categorisation into Category:Volcanic sunsets in La Palma - however, the photos were of sunrise! (look at the timestamps.) Also, I'm not sure how much the sunrise colour was due to the volcano, since it was looking in the other direction - the reason the sunrise is starting above the sea level is due to Tenerife being in the way. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 11:58, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Categorization of French geological maps...

Hi Hornstrandir1

Maybe these tables could interrest you:

These tables are in my WP-fr sandbox. They help me with the writing of texts in the "Geology" sections in French communes articles (in addition to the maps and their legends).

I still have lot of work to generate the other maps, symbols and legends... --Poudou99 (talk) 20:22, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for all this work and for the links. It is really interesting and helpful.Hornstrandir1 (talk) 01:36, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
For the alpine departments (Haute-Savoie, Savoie, Isère, Hautes-Alpes,...), I am building these tables which indicate also the types of formations, the geological domains, the litho-tectonic units,... that is more suitable for the geology of the Alpine communes than the simple mention of the eras, periods and epochs. Later this could be used for categorizations (an example).
feel free to send me comments or suggestions. I could make corrections or improvements in Commons. --Poudou99 (talk) 19:51, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
Looks interesting.Hornstrandir1 (talk) 02:21, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
