However, compared to other dune types, systematic research on reticulate dunes remains limited, and aspects such as their formation mechanisms, grain size characteristics, and elemental composition characteristics remain inadequately understood. This study integrated regional wind regime data to analyse the grain size characteristics of reticulate dunes (specifically, the primary and secondary ridges) in the Tengger Desert, Considering both primary and sub-wind seasons. Additionally, we examined the elemental composition characteristics and degree of weathering of these dunes. The results indicate that the primary and secondary ridges of the reticulate dunes in the Tengger Desert are predominantly composed of fine sand and very fine sand with a mean grain size of 2.52Φ. Compared with other deserts in China and abroad, the sediments exhibit relatively finer grain sizes and better sorting. Furthermore, the grain size characteristics of surface sediments in the primary and secondary ridges exhibited two distinct distribution patterns during different wind seasons, indicating differences in the formation mechanisms of the primary and secondary ridges. The major elements in the surface sediments of the reticulate dunes in the Tengger Desert are SiO<sub>2</sub> and Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, while the predominant trace elements are primarily Ba, Sr, Zr, and Cr. This indicates that the geochemical composition of the sediments is influenced not only by the intrinsic characteristics of the elements but also by the regional climate and the supply of fresh materials, which are significant factors affecting their chemical behavior and content differences. The chemical weathering indices (CIA, residual coefficient, and ICV), along with the A-CN-K and A-CNK-FM triangular diagrams, suggest that the sedimentary environment of the reticulate dune sediments in the Tengger Desert is characterised by a cold, dry climate with a low degree of weathering. The weathering process occurs during the initial stages of plagioclase chemical weathering. These findings lay the foundation for further research on the formation mechanisms, evolutionary processes, and sedimentary environments of reticulate dunes, contributing to a deeper understanding of these complex geomorphological features.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21575,"journal":{"name":"Sedimentary Geology","volume":"480 ","pages":"Article 106851"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143551817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding HTD genesis is crucial for improving our ability to predict subsurface HTD occurrence within sedimentary frameworks. This study investigates HTD development within the Permian Guadalupian carbonate successions of the eastern Sichuan Basin, China, providing significant insights into HTD formation processes. Through systematic sedimentological analysis of four outcrop sections (Fangniuba, Shangping, Tuotuoba, and Wuyangba), we identified eight distinct lithofacies and five lithofacies associations (LA1–LA5). Integrating field observations with data from adjacent sites, we performed a comprehensive evaluation of the depositional sequences, sedimentary environments, and petrophysical properties of the Guadalupian carbonate strata. These carbonates display a distinctive shallowing-upward sequence overlain by a deepening-upward succession. Notably, Guadalupian dolostones are consistently hosted within the middle portions of the shallowing-upward sequences across all studied sections. Petrological and mineralogical analyses further reveal preferential dolomitization in thin- to medium-bedded wackestone containing nodular cherts (LA2), which served as lateral conduits for hydrothermal fluid migration. Enhanced fracturing is observed within these lithologies, particularly along bedding planes and around nodular chert margins, reflecting their greater susceptibility to petrophysical modification. This preferential dolomitization reflects the interplay of carbonate texture, rock permeability, and fracture susceptibility, which collectively establish optimal diagenetic conditions for fluid-rock interaction. Our findings demonstrate that depositional lithological heterogeneity constrains HTD distribution through two key pathways: (1) primary lithological controls (including permeability variations and mud content), and (2) mechanically influenced properties (particularly bed thickness and nodular cherts).

Conversely, when the lower layer material strength increases, the opposite effect is observed. Frictional energy loss (<em>E</em><sub><em>f</em></sub>) is the primary energy loss pathway, with both total energy loss and <em>E</em><sub><em>f</em></sub> decreasing with increasing particle size. Localized energy losses are mainly due to terrain collisions, independent of moisture content.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21575,"journal":{"name":"Sedimentary Geology","volume":"478 ","pages":"Article 106825"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143336963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
