About CAJG!
The Arabian Journal of Geosciences (AJGS) is a Springer journal publishing original articles on the
entire range of Earth sciences in partnership with the Saudi Society for Geosciences (SSG). The
journal focuses on, but not limited to, research themes which have regional significance to the Middle
East, the Euro-Mediterranean, Africa and Asia. The journal receives on average 3500 submissions
a year and accepts around 800 papers for publication in its 24 annual issues (acceptance rate 28%).
It enjoys the participation of an editorial team of 100 international Associate Editors assisting 15
Chief Topical Editors who generously help in evaluating and selecting the best papers for publication
in the journal. Its last Impact Factor (IF) for 2018 is 1.15 and we are expecting a higher IF for 2019
and next years!

In continuation of the 1st Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-1, Tunisia
2018) which was launched on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the AJGS and enjoyed the
participation of 450 geoscientists from 70 countries, it is a pleasure and an honor for us to see
many of our past and future AJGS authors attending this 2nd CAJG which is now being held on the waterfront of the Port El Kantaoui
in Sousse, Tunisia during 4 days from 25th to 28th of November 2019.

This 2nd CAJG covers a wide range of topics that reflect the AJGS’s multiple scientific interests. It is an opportunity to discover and
discuss the newest research from the region and worldwide, and to meet our authors, reviewers and editors who have supported
and been associated with the AJGS from the beginning. We are also glad that top researchers from all fields of geosciences agreed
to present their original work during the keynote sessions. Workshops, courses and field trips are also planned during this 2nd CAJG.

The conference is also an occasion to endorse the AJGS long-held reputation for bringing together leading authors from the Middle
East, the Euro-Mediterranean, Africa and Asia who work at the wide-ranging fields of Earth sciences. These dynamic four-day
conference will provide more than 400 attendees with opportunities to share their latest unpublished findings and learn the newest
geosciences studies. The event is also an opportunity for our attendees to meet and discuss with the AJGS editors and reviewers.

More than 720 short contributed papers to the conference were submitted by authors from 70 countries. After a pre-conference
peer-review process by more than 700 international reviewers, 515 papers were accepted. These papers will be soon published as
chapters in 4 volumes of the conference proceedings by Springer. Authors of the best papers will be invited after the conference to
extend their papers before submission to one of the planned special issues of the AJGS.

We hope that you will enjoy this 2nd CAJG scientific program and that some of you who participated (or will participate) at the field
trips took / will take a little time out to explore the wonders of the geological sites of Tunisia.

We wish you an enjoyable stay in Sousse and a fruitful participation at this 2nd CAJG!

Zhihua Zhang, China: Climate Networks

The climate system is a complex, multidimensional multiscale nonlinear system in which different
KEYNOTE TRACK 1

physical processes act on different temporal and spatial scales. The climate networks use the theory
of known complex networks to analyze climate system and enable novel insights into trends, patterns
and mechanisms of global climate change over a wide range of spatio-temporal scales. Any change in
climate system can be detected easily by various network measures (e.g. degree distribution, diameter,
clustering, cut sets). In this article, we will briefly review latest advances on climate networks.

Johan Etourneau, France: A brief overview of some molecular proxies commonly used to
unravel part of the Earth’s climate history
Molecular proxies, also named organic biomarkers, have increasingly been used over the last decades
KEYNOTE TRACK 4

in both marine and continental environments to track past climate variability at several timescales.
Marine and terrestrial living organisms synthetize organic compounds, in particular some lipids that are
exported to lake and deep ocean sediments where they remain preserved for million years. Based on
their distribution, abundances and isotopic signatures, they can reveal crucial information on changes
in ocean and atmosphere temperatures, marine phytoplankton productivity, sea ice extent, type of
vegetation or precipitations for instance. Here is presented a brief review of some marine and terrestrial
organic proxies that have been commonly used to reconstruct past climate changes in both low, mid and high latitudes
regions during different periods of time.

Hasnaa Chennaoui Aoudjehane, Morocco: Meteorites of Morocco: a model of science

development in the Arab countries
Meteorites are ultrabasic, basic or intermediate extraterrestrial rocks with some special features such
KEYNOTE TRACK 7

as chondrules in most of them. They played a crucial role in the apparition of water and life on Earth
as well as in the mass extinction of species. Meteorites are mostly collected in cold deserts such as
Antarctica and hot ones such as Oman, Sahara and Chili. The Sahara, and especially the Moroccan one,
provides a very important number of meteorites for researchers and collectors all over the world. Despite
the richness of the Arab world on meteorites, there is a lack of interest in research on meteoritics and
planetary science. This makes Arab countries waste an opportunity to produce science in a new and
promising field of research as well as priceless geoheritage. In Morocco, since 2001, we started a strategy to develop and
promote meteoritics and planetary science, based on three axes: research, education and communication. This strategy can
be applied to other Arab countries. This will allow them to play a role on the international scientific scene.

Marina Rabineau, France: Multidisciplinary study of Marine archives: reconstruction of Sea-

movement on margins: examples from the Western Mediterranean Sea
The numerous processes (superficial and deep) occurring on margins, their origins, consequences,
KEYNOTE TRACK 11

interactions and quantifications are only very partially described and understood. The identification of
the relative role of factors is sometimes completely contradictory between authors. Here, we show
the results of a long-term multidecadal and multidisciplinary study (using geophysical, geological,
stratigraphic, paleontological, geomorphologic, geochemical, microbiological and numerical models) in
the Western Mediterranean Sea, that acts as a natural laboratory at many different scales. We show how
sediments efficiently record at the same time: variations of glacio-eustatic sea-level changes, variations
of sediments yield and sources, and also enable to quantify vertical movements and geodynamic worldwide events but
also detailed regional mass transport, turbidites and contourites deposits. They are also an archive of paleoclimatic,
palaeoceanographic and diagenetic processes.

Attila Çiner, Turkey: Cosmogenic surface exposure dating applications from Turkey; moraines,
alluvial fans, fluvial terraces, lava flows and incision rates
We report our work carried out in Turkey, where various Quaternary surfaces and deposits were dated
KEYNOTE TRACK 9

by using cosmogenic surface exposure method. Our most important applications are related to boulders
collected from moraines, as they can be used to reconstruct glacier fluctuations and palaeoclimates.
We have dated moraines in numerous mountains, mainly within the Taurus Mountain Range along
the Mediterranean coastline, where the deposits were formed mostly during Last Glacial Maximum
(LGM;~20 ka), and to a lesser extentd during pre-LGM (~50 ka), Younger Dryas (~12 ka) and the Early
Holocene (~10 ka). We also used this method to determine the timing of the abandonment/incision of
alluvial fan lobes that were later cut and displaced by the left lateral strike-slip of the Ecemiş Fault. The timing of surface
breaking and slip and extension rates were also calculated, permitting the evaluation of the role of these structures in
terms of the regional tectonic framework. In an another study, abandonment ages of river terraces based on burial and
isochron-burial dating with cosmogenic 10Be and 26Al yielded the long-term incision rate of the Kızılırmak River (51 m/Ma
since 1.9 Ma) as a proxy for the rock uplift, and the long-term denudation rate of the Central Anatolia Plateau. Last but not
least, by using cosmogenic nuclides, we were able to date basaltic lava flows (~5 to 10 ka), and also calculate erosion rates
of peculiar landforms locally known as “fairy chimneys” in Cappadocia.

Annette E. Götz, UK: Melting Gondwana: Palynological evidence of a prolonged Permian

deglaciation
The Late Palaeozoic Ice Age (LPIA) represents one of the most extreme climate transformations in Earth
KEYNOTE TRACK 14

history, transitioning from icehouse to greenhouse conditions. However, the controversial discussion on
the termination of glaciation demonstrates the need for a more robust stratigraphic control including
climatic palynoevents calibrated by radiometric data. New palynological data from Karoo basins of
southwestern Gondwana reveal thick lacustrine deposits of Artinskian age, documenting the final
glacial retreat with melt waters supplying broad lowland sinks. The switch from cold to cool-temperate
conditions is displayed in the pollen record with the first taeniate bisaccate elements occurring in
the Artinskian, clearly marking a change in the upland flora. This prominent floral signature indicates that at least in the
southwestern part of Gondwana glaciers still existed in the upland regions during the late Cisuralian. Palynological evidence
of a prolonged glaciation also includes marine phytoplankton associations and their response on meltwater influx into
marine basins during the late Cisuralian.

Sami Khomsi, Saudi Arabia: The crustal configuration and deep structures related to the pre-
salt oil/gas objectives of the Eastern Maghreb: Need for deep seismic imaging
Since the last decade, the major tectonic evolutionary steps of the Eastern Maghreb structures were
KEYNOTE TRACK 15

precisely constrained by shallow seismic sections (5 s TWT) interpretations and structural analyses.
However their overall configurations at depth, and their deep structural configuration controlled by the
underlying basement, remain poorly understood because only few wells yet penetrated deeper than the
thick Triassic evaporites sequences in the Atlas and the foreland basins. Thus, this work will focus on the
deep structures affecting the Pan-African basement in the Eastern Maghreb by means of wide regional
cross-sections passing through key structures of the Eastern Maghreb. Our purpose is to stimulate
exploration of deep hydrocarbon traps and stimulate the industry, universities and other public research companies to
launch a major research program on the deep crustal configuration in the Eastern Maghreb for the unlocking of deep oil/
gas plays.

Santanu Banerjee, India: The application of glauconite for high-resolution stratigraphic

interpretations of Eocene succession
This study explores the potential of glauconite for high-resolution for the interpretation of Eocene
KEYNOTE TRACK 13

stratigraphic sequences for correlation of hydrocarbon reservoirs. The authigenic glauconite forms
abundantly during the Eocene in shallow marine environments, and its presence indicate a low rate
of sediment supply. The glauconite is characteristically associated with transgressive deposits, and
its presence reflects marine flooding. The presence of glauconite marks the different orders of marine
flooding surfaces in stratigraphic sequences because of the requirement of a low rate of sediment. The
glauconitic intervals provide high-resolution sequence stratigraphic interpretations in Kutch, Cambay
and Jaisalmer basins in onshore basins of western India and in subsurface Assam-Arakan basin in northeast India. Because
of its highly radioactive nature, the glauconitic rock is useful for subsurface correlation using electrologs.

Zeynal Abiddin Erguler, Turkey: Strength, Disintegration and Self-Sealing Characteristics of

Mudrocks
Mudrocks are the most sensitive sedimentary rock in terms of strength, deformation and slaking
KEYNOTE TRACK 8

characteristics against changing in environmental and climatic conditions. Various worldwide recorded
engineering problems (e.g. landslide, slope instability, embankment failures, open-pit and underground
excavation problems and undercutting related rockfalls) generally have direct or indirect relationships
with these rocks. Clay minerals that are extremely sensitive to water content change constitute the
most dominant mineralogical composition of mudrocks. In addition to their problematic characteristics,
mudrocks have definitely promising features for modern engineering projects. For nearly three decades,
mudrocks (e.g., Opalinus Clay, Boom Clay etc.) have being investigated for safe storage of high-level radioactive waste by
considering their low hydraulic conductivity and high swelling and self-sealing potential. Furthermore, the reduction of
conventional fossil fuels and worldwide high energy demands have led scientists to do more investigation for achieving
alternative energy sources from mudrocks. Considering low durability and strength dependent mudrocks based engineering
problems and the importance of these rocks for extraction shale gas and storage nuclear waste, the failure, slaking and
self-sealing behaviors of these clay-bearing rocks were comprehensively evaluated in this study.

Narasimman Sundararajan, Oman: Geo-investigations on the Qarat Kibrit Salt Dome Faulting
System South of Adam, Oman - In Search of anomalies favorable for Uranium and associated
minerals
Development of salt domes, often arising from depths of some 10 km or more, causes an intense
KEYNOTE TRACK 5

faulting of the surrounding host rocks (salt tectonics). The fractured rocks then present ideal space
for oil that can migrate and get trapped. If such moving of hydrocarbons pass uranium-carrying rock
units (e.g., shales), uranium is collected and enriched by organic carbon compounds. Brines from the
salt body are also ideal carriers for oxidized uranium species and will further dislocate uranium when in
contact with uranium-enriched oils. Uranium then has the potential to mineralize in the vicinity of the
dome (blue halite is evidence for radiation having affected salt deposits). Based on this, the Qarat Kibrit
salt dome was investigated by very low frequency electromagnetic (VLF-EM) and magnetic surveys along five traverses
approximately 250 m in length (10 m intervals) in order to identify subsurface fault systems. In-phase and quadrature
components of the VLF-EM signal were recorded at two transmitter frequencies (24.0 kHz and 24.9 kHz) along with the
total magnetic field.. The Karous-Hjelt current density pseudosection delineates the subsurface faults at depths between
10 and 40 m which is substantiated by the Hartley spectral depth from the total magnetic field. The stacked profiles of line
joining the Fraser peaks have brought out two plausible trends/directions of faults. Further, the in-situ XRF measurements
that were carried out in the field unable to establish any possible uranium enrichment within the salt-tectonic system and
there seems to be no evidence for an enrichment of uranium.

Klaus-G. Hinzen, Germany: Advances in Archaeoseismology

Our knowledge of pre-instrumental earthquakes is mainly based on historic reports and
KEYNOTE TRACK 3

palaeoseismological evidence. Under favorable conditions, damage to archaeologically documented

structures may quantify earthquake-related parameters, such as the type of ground motions that
caused damage. The Mediterranean Region with a plethora of archaeological sites and one of the
highest global seismicity rates is an ideal place for archaeoseismological research. In addition to basic
questions, e.g. whether observed damage is of a co-seismic nature and bracketing ground motion levels,
advanced surveying and modeling techniques can also provide additional insights. We show that models
of precariously balanced archaeological structures provide natural limits to past ground motion levels and that structures
built on active faults may give information on the slip velocity during earthquakes. Quantitative models also provide
perspectives for discussions about historical building techniques, such as the existence of ancient earthquake-resistant
construction. The results of such investigations can improve efforts to preserve the cultural heritage of a region and can be
utilized to avoid future construction mistakes.

Hesham M. El-Askary, USA: Assessment of Vegetation Changes in Saudi Arabia Using

Harmonic Analysis and ENSO Indices
Arid environment with limited vegetation and scare water resources characterizes Saudi Arabia (SA).
KEYNOTE TRACK 6

Therefore, changes and trends of vegetation conditions are very important especially since climate
change may signify the impact on the living standards and food security in the coming years. In this
research, we used the enhanced vegetation index (EVI) as an indicator of the drying trends over the SA
region in the past 20 years. The soil moisture products, vegetation and precipitation-based products
were assessed to monitor and predict the variability of vegetation distribution. Overall, the vegetation
in SA has a declining trend in most of their habitats, with the exception of regions with cropland
reclamation. Most of the wild sparse vegetation areas (such as grassland and shrubland) suffer decreasing trends in the
southwestern mountains. It was found that soil moisture of different vegetation categories (forest, cropland, mosaic and
sparse), react differently to the precipitation. Interestingly, a comparably positive relationship between the SA’s NDVI and
Trans-Niño Index (TNI) is shown over the other El Niño indices, with increasing lag correlation from 0 to 11 months. This
may indicate the teleconnection between El Niño events, eastern Pacific El Niño in particular, and vegetation richness in SA.

François Roure, France: Tectonic and geodynamic controls on petroleum systems in

compressional basins
Compressional systems still host huge amounts of hydrocarbon reserves, either in anticlinal and other
KEYNOTE NARG

structural traps in the foothills, or in stratigraphic and structural traps in the autochthonous foreland.
Compressional basins are commonly considered as risky frontier areas for the exploration. Case
studies in prolific HC provinces from the American Cordilleran basins, the Middle East and the Circum-
Mediterranean Foreland Fold-and-Thrust Belts (FFTB) presented in this paper have elucidated the main
tectonic and geodynamic controls exerted on their petroleum systems.
Commonly, long range migration pathways between the foredeep and the forebulge account for huge
but biodegraded hydrocarbon accumulations in the foreland, as in the Orinoco and Athabasca tar belts, whereas short
range migration between underthrust synclines and adjacent anticlines still occur in recent tectonic wedges in Albania and
the Carpathians.
A good knowledge of the Wilson cycle, including the pre-orogenic rifting and passive margin stages, the collisional stage
and subsequent post-orogenic collapse is a pre-requisite before addressing realistic thermal and petroleum modelling,
due to the important temporal and lateral variations of their lithospheric thickness and basal heat flow during alternative
extensional and compressional stages.

Giovanni Bertotti, The Netherlands: Vertical Movements and source-to-sink systems the
rifted margin of NW Africa: surprises continue
Up to a few years ago, rifted continental margins were considered as very well studied and understood.
KEYNOTE NARG

Extensive use of low-T geochronology tools has shown, however, that rifted margins experienced
upward and downward vertical movements completely unpredicted by available models. New erosion-
sedimentation systems developed as a response. The margin of NW Africa is no exception. Triassic to
Jurassic exhumation occurred in the Anti-Atlas and Regibat domains of Morocco and Mauritania feeding
large amounts of terrigenous sediments to the W and the E. In North Morocco, a stage of Triassic to
Early Jurassic subsidence was followed by Middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous exhumation associated
with the delivery of terrigenous sediments in the offshore domain. Constraining tectono-sedimentary systems in Morocco,
Mauritania and Senegal is in full development and will bring fundamentally new insights in the evolution of NW Africa.

facies belt of continental clastics that extend from Morocco to Egypt. Recent wells drilled in Eastern
Morocco have proven economic gas flow-rates from Late Triassic continental sandstones; sourced from
Palaeozoic shales and trapped with post Hercynian rift structures. The play bears many similarities to
the prolific TAG-I play in the Berkine Basin and offers potential for extension of this petroleum system
farther west into Morocco. Reservoir quality and thickness is a key uncertainty and better understanding
of the depositional systems and provenance is critical to reducing uncertainty and predicting where the sandstones offer

Emile A. Okal, USA: Tsunami hazard along the Eastern African coast from mega-earthquake
sources in the Indian Ocean
The catastrophic 2004 Indonesian tsunami reached the shores of Eastern Africa, where it affected at
KEYNOTE TRACK 3

least 12 countries and caused several hundred casualties, principally in Somalia. Significant variations
in run-up were documented by various post-tsunami surveys (note that the latter remain incomplete,
especially in Southern Tanzania and Mozambique). In a previous study, Okal et al. [2009] suggested that
these variations could depend on the precise location of the tsunami sources, as a result of the combined
effect of source directivity and refraction irregular bathymetry. In this context, we present the results of
a significantly enhanced study, which considers a total of twelve potential sites of mega earthquakes,
along both the Sunda Arc, and the Makran subduction zone. Numerical simulations are carried out at a total of 25 virtual
gauges, spanning the East African coast from Socotra in the north to Port Elizabeth in the south, as well as adjoining islands
(Madagascar, Comoros, Mascarenes). In particular, we identify locations where the 2004 tsunami (which to a large extent
awakened the awareness of the continent to tsunami danger) may not have represented a worst case scenario.

also be used for depth conversion and the processing of more conventional reflection profiles. Mantle tomography has
been successful in documenting the vertical and lateral extent of lithospheric slabs and crustal delamination. The lack of
such deep surveillance of North African tectonic wedges and adjacent forelands precludes any prospection of deep plays.
For instance, profiles of deep seismic soundings would be of immense benefit to better monitor the geodynamic and
