This edited volume contains the best papers accepted for presentation during the 1st Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-1), Tunisia 2018. The volume shares the latest results from paleontological, biostratigraphic and sedimentological studies by experienced researchers mainly from research institutes in the Mediterranean and Middle East. Main topics include: paleontology, biostratigraphy, sedimentology, paleoclimatology and geomorphology. Some new insights are given on paleobiodiversity and major biological tools for biostratigraphy, patterns, mechanisms and processes of meso-cenozoic sedimentation in the Mediterranean and Middle East. In particular, case studies are included to highlight the major controlling factors of Tethyan biosphere-geosphere interactions as inferred from the Mediterranean and Middle East regions. The book is of interest to all researchers in the fields of different disciplines involved in the sedimentary geology.

Notă biografică

Dr. Bádenas holds a five-year B.Sc. in Geology (1991) and a Ph.D. degree in Stratigraphy (1999) from the University of Zaragoza (Spain). She is currently a Professor of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology at the Earth-Science Department of the University of Zaragoza. Her research interests mainly focus on sedimentology and sequence and cyclostratigraphic analyses of marine carbonate sediments, with special emphasis on sedimentary processes and facies heterogeneities of tidal flat-lagoonal facies, shallow-platform coated-grains sandbodies and carbonate buildups, and hemipelagic rhythmites and black shales. She is currently working in a multidisciplinary research project on the palaeoenvironmental and paleoclimatic reconstructions of the Jurassic and Cretaceous in the Iberian plate. She has co-published near 100 research articles in international indexed and refereed journals. Since 2011, she is member of the editorial and scientific committees of the journals edited by the Geological Society of Spain. In 2016 Dr. Bádenas joined the AJGS as an Associate Editor responsible for evaluating submissions in the fields of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology.


Dr. Granier holds a B.Sc. in Sedimentary Geology (1981) from P. Sabatier University, Toulouse (France), a M.Sc. in Geodynamics (1983), a Ph.D. in Stratigraphy (1987) as well as a D.Sc. (Habilitation) in Earth Sciences (2003) from Sorbonne University – UPMC, Paris (France). Before joining academe, he worked over a decade and a half for the oil industry. In 1991, he joined Total as Senior Carbonate Sedimentologist at its Scientific and Technical Research Centre in Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse (France). There, he coordinated studies on Angola and Libya, and was responsible for carbonate studies on France, Qatar and Yemen. In 1995 he was seconded to ADMA-OPCO in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates), as a Petrography Expert. In 2001 he was back in Paris – La Défense with Total in the reservoir division where he dealt with the carbonate reservoirs of the Congo, Angola, ... along with the bituminous sands of Alberta. Since 2004, Dr. Granier is a full Professor and the Chairperson in Paleontology and Sedimentology at the University of Western Brittany – UBO, Brest (France). Since 2007, he is also an Adjunct Research Associate with the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Kansas in Lawrence (U.S.A.). Since 2011, he is a “Pesquisador Associado” with the UNESPetro at the “Centro de Geociências Aplicadas ao Petróleo” of the “Universidade Estadual Paulista” in Rio Claro – SP (Brazil). In summer 2015, he was awarded a Franco-Brazilian professorship at the UNESP. Since 2013, he is also an Adjunct Researcher at the Faculty of Sciences II – Fanar Campus of the Lebanese University in Beirut (Lebanon). Dr. Granier has authored or co-authored some 120 research papers and number of technical reports. He serves as an Editor or Associate Editor somejournals such as PALAIOS, Carnets Geol. and Studia UBB. He is or was an active member of several not-for-profit associations (Emirates Society of Geosciences, French Geological Society, International Palaeontological Association, International Association of Sedimentology, …etc.) and also chaired invited sessions at international meetings. From 2007 to 2011, he was the Chair of the French Committee on Stratigraphy (CFS) and as such he organized the International Congress STRATI2010 in Paris on behalf of the CFS. Currently, he is still a Vice-Chair of the French Group on the Cretaceous (GFC).

Dr. Jaillard is senior researcher at the French « Institut de Recherche pour le Développement » (IRD). He is specialized in sedimentary geology, and usesit for understanding continental margins and their geodynamic setting. He worked about 5 years in the Western Alps, 20 years in the Andes, and since 15 years, he studies sedimentation, tectonics and paleoenvironments in North Africa. He is the author of about 70 international publications, and contributed to the redaction of several books.

He has received one national prize and two international awards for scientific excellence. His research interests focus on Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous ammonite, calpionellid and radiolarian paleontology, biostratigraphy and paleobiogeography, mainly from the South-Tethyan Margin of the Maghreb and neighboring provinces. He has participated at (and conducted) many national and international research projects, the most recent of which involved comparative Jurassic bio-, chemo- and magnetostratigraphy of the Iberian Peninsula and the Maghreb. He has co-published many research articles in international indexed and refereed journals and chaired and/or co-organized four international thematic meetings. In 2015 Pr. Boughdiri joined the AJGS as an Associate Editor responsible for evaluating submissions in the fields of Paleontology and Life History.



Dr. Selden gained the B.Sc. (Hons) degree in Geology and Zoology in 1975.

He has organizedand co-organized 15 international conferences. Dr. Bengtson’s principal research interests are Cretaceous palaeontology, biostratigraphy and biogeography with focus on marine Mollusca of the Southern Hemisphere, geological and palaeontological terminology and nomenclature, and stratigraphic principles and procedures. He has carried out extensive field work in Brazil, Sweden and Antarctica and has further field experience from Norway, Denmark, Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, England, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Ukraine, Georgia, Gabon, Canada, Argentina and Colombia.
