  2. Red beds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_beds

    Red beds may form during diagenesis.The key to this mechanism is the intrastratal alteration of ferromagnesian silicates by oxygenated groundwaters during burial. Walker's studies show that the hydrolysis of hornblende and other iron-bearing detritus follows Goldich dissolution series.

  3. Red Beds of Texas and Oklahoma - Wikipedia

    The most prolific fossil site in the red beds is the Geraldine Bonebed within the Nocona Formation of the Wichita Group. [6] During the Permian, the bonebed was the site of a freshwater pond. After a catastrophic event this became the burial site for a variety of terrestrial and marine animals. [ 15 ]

    She presented a diagram as a "skeleton" of this theory, which later became referred to by some as the skeleton theory. The skeleton theory explains the procedure of how a memory is recalled, which is split into two categories: the acquisition processes and the retrieval processes. The acquisition processes are in three separate steps.

    The Deese–Roediger–McDermott (DRM) paradigm is a procedure in cognitive psychology used to study false memory in humans. The procedure was pioneered by James Deese in 1959, but it was not until Henry L. Roediger III and Kathleen McDermott extended the line of research in 1995 that the paradigm became popular.

    Shaded relief map of the Llano Estacado. Texas contains a wide variety of geologic settings. The state's stratigraphy has been largely influenced by marine transgressive-regressive cycles during the Phanerozoic, with a lesser but still significant contribution from late Cenozoic tectonic activity, as well as the remnants of a Paleozoic mountain range.

  8. Schema (psychology) - Wikipedia

    For example, if this chicken has red feathers, Bob can form a new schemata that says "chickens with red feathers can lay eggs". This schemata, in the future, will either be changed or removed entirely. Assimilation is the reuse of schemata to fit the new information. For example, when a person sees an unfamiliar dog, they will probably just ...

    This includes the activation synthesis theory—the theory that dreams result from brain stem activation during REM sleep; the continual activation theory—the theory that dreaming is a result of activation and synthesis but dreams and REM sleep are controlled by different structures in the brain; and dreams as excitations of long-term memory ...
