Temperature-controlled precipitation kinetics has become the overwhelmingly dominant hypothesis for the control of quartz cementation in sandstones. Here, we integrate quantitative petrographic data, high spatial resolution oxygen isotope analyses of... Read More about Vertical effective stress as a control on quartz cementation in sandstones.

Calcite cementation and dolomitization are key diagenetic processes in many sedimentary systems. Unravelling detailed histories and timescales of cementation and replacement is, however, often compromised by the limited spatial resolution of many ana...
