Metode: Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif dengan menggunakan 6 informan penelitian yang ditentukan dengan teknik purposive sampling. Instrumen penelitian pada penelitian ini adalah pedoman wawancara, lembar observasi dan studi dokumentasi. Penelitian ini dilakukan di bulan Oktober – November 2022.
Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 41 indikator pelaksanaan, sebanyak 31 indikator (78,1%) telah terlaksana dan 9 indikator (21,9%) belum terlaksana
Kesimpulan: Pelaksanaan Trias UKS di SD Negeri Pongangan dalam kategori baik namun masih diperlukannya perbaikan pada beberapa indikator
The effect of extractable organic matter and solid organic matter on the pore structure of shale from Yangchang Formation in the Ordos Basin, China is investigated in this study. The shale samples ...were successively crushed, extracted by dichloromethane to remove extractable organic matter, treated by hydrogen peroxide to remove solid organic matter. The porosity, organic and mineralogical characteristic of original, extracted and H2O2 treated shale samples were analyzed via low pressure gas adsorption measurement, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Rock-Eval pyrolysis. Results show that pores in the studied shale were occupied and blocked by extractable organic matter with varying degrees which seriously affect porosity. Pores with small diameter will be preferential occupied and blocked. The plentiful generation of hydrocarbon in organic-rich shale will lead to high fluid pressure in pore which protect pore from compaction during evolution and lead to a higher porosity. This protection mainly act on macropores. Pores in the studied shale were dominated by quartz-related and clay-related pores, and organic matter hosted pore is rare. Solid organic matter content act as a harmful factor to total porosity of studied shale. Firstly, high content of solid organic matter reduce the relative content of quartz and clay minerals then lead to a low total porosity. Secondly, solid organic matter occupied and blocked pores related to quartz and clay minerals.
Abstract
Exploring features of wood anatomy associated with fire scars found on fossil tree trunks is likely to increase our knowledge of the environmental and ecological processes that occurred in ...ancient forests and of the role of fire as an evolutionary force. In Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona, where Late Triassic fossil trees are exposed, we found 13 examples of fossil logs with external features resembling modern fire scars. One specimen with the unambiguous external features of a fire scar was collected for analysis of its fossilized wood. A light-colored band composed of compressed and distorted tracheids was associated with the scarring event. Cell lumen diameter and cell wall thickness in the pre-scarring fossilized wood show a response similar to that described in modern trees experiencing drought conditions. Tracheids in the post-scarring wood are initially smaller, and then become larger than average following a recovery period, as is often observed in modern conifers following fire. The responses in external morphology and wood anatomy to drought and fire were similar to those of some modern trees and support the view that some forests may have experienced conditions favoring the evolution of fire-adapted traits for more than 200 million years.
A rich assemblage of various types of bromalites from the lower Carnian "Konservat-Lagerstätte" from the Reingraben Shales in Polzberg (Northern Calcareous Alps, Lower Austria) is described for the ...first time in detail. They comprise large regurgitalites consisting of numerous entire shells of ammonoid Austrotrachyceras or their fragments and rare teuthid arm hooks, and buccal cartilage of Phragmoteuthis. Small coprolites composed mainly of fish remains were also found. The size, shape and co-occurrence with vertebrate skeletal remains imply that regurgitalites were likely produced by large durophagous fish (most likely by cartilaginous fish Acrodus). Coprolites, in turn, were likely produced by medium-sized piscivorous actinopterygians. Our findings are consistent with other lines of evidence suggesting that durophagous predation has been intense during the Triassic and that the so-called Mesozoic marine revolution has already started in the early Mesozoic.
The Middle Triassic was a time of major changes in tetrapod faunas worldwide, but the fossil record for this interval is largely obscure for terrestrial faunas. This poses a severe limitation to our ...understanding on the earliest stages of diversification of lineages representing some of the most diverse faunas in the world today, such as lepidosauromorphs (e.g., lizards and tuataras). Here, we report a tiny new lepidosauromorph from the Middle Triassic from Vellberg (Germany), which combines a mosaic of features from both early evolving squamates and rhynchocephalians, such as the simultaneous occurrence of a splenial bone and partial development of acrodonty. Phylogenetic analyses applying different optimality criteria, and combined morphological and molecular data, consistently recover the new taxon as a stem-lepidosauromorph, implying stem-lepidosauromorph species coinhabited areas comprising today's central Europe at the same time as the earliest known rhynchocephalians and squamates. It further demonstrates a more complex evolutionary scenario for dental evolution in early lepidosauromorphs, with independent acquisitions of acrodonty early in their evolutionary history. The small size of most terrestrial vertebrates from Vellberg is conspicuous, contrasting to younger Triassic deposits worldwide, but comparable to Early Triassic faunas, suggesting a potential long-lasting Lilliput effect in this fauna.

This study quantified the anisotropy of element composition in Upper Triassic “Chang 8” shale in Jiyuan district of Ordos Basin, China and provided the microscopic evidence for the existence of ...dominant fracture zone.
Element quantification was carried out ensuring both observational resolution and sample representativeness. Results show that for shale slices in two directions which are 45° (225°) and 0° (180°/360°), the distribution of elements is significantly different from that in other directions. The minimum of element contents often occurs in 45° (225°) and the maximum of element contents often occurs in 0° (180°/360°). The brittleness parameter value stays at a high level from 0° (180°/360°) to 22.5° (202.5°). The maximum value occurs in 0° (180°/360°), and the minimum value occurs in 45° (225°) which has obvious significance in shale stimulation.
The conclusion proved that the existence of predominant fracture zone in shale has the microscopic evidence in micro-scale brittle minerals.
Understanding water distribution behaviors plays an essential role in shale gas development due to the hydraulic fracturing technology. In this study, water vapor adsorption isotherms were measured ...for Upper Triassic Yanchang and Lower Silurian Longmaxi samples at 288.15 K, 298.15 K and 308.15 K to investigate the adsorption behaviors of water on shale. For a description of adsorption process, a Dent’s model provides an estimate of primary and secondary adsorption sites of water adsorption. The effects of temperature, shale mineralogy, and water distribution were discussed. The results show that temperature has a negative effect on water vapor adsorption. Adsorption capacities of primary and secondary sites decrease with increasing temperature. Water vapor adsorption capacity is tightly associated with clay content, whereas water vapor adsorption has no significant relationship with total organic carbon (TOC). Normalized water vapor adsorption content also has no significant relationship with TOC, which indicates no obvious correlation between water vapor adsorption and TOC content. The inter-crystal pores of clay minerals provide significant specific surface for gas adsorption in shale. At low relative pressure, a large number of water molecules adsorb on the primary sites. At high relative vapor pressure, most of the primary sites have been occupied, so that the secondary adsorption sites will be utilized. Therefore, due to relative weak binding energies in secondary adsorption sites, water cluster are formed in micro-pores of shale. As relative vapor pressure increases, capillary condensation gradually predominates over the adsorption. The study will reveal mechanism of water adsorption and distribution characteristics on shale and provide some foundation for geological reserve estimation and shale gas recovery prediction.
