Abstract

The start of Nile-type trans-Saharan drainage systems in NE Africa during the Cenozoic is disputed. Stratigraphical and sedimentological data in Egypt are partly in conflict with the uplift history of potential source areas of water and sediment in East Africa. Here, we investigate outcrops of the Wadi Awatib Conglomerate in Sudan that provide the first evidence of northerly flowing Neogene rivers in the region. Dimension and relief of basal erosion surfaces, overall geometry of deposits and palaeocurrent indicators demonstrate that the deposits represent the fill of northward-oriented incised valleys. The conglomerates were deposited in deep gravel-bed rivers, by hyperconcentrated flows, tractions carpets and gravel bars, primarily during heavily sediment-laden floods of probably monsoonal origin. Stratigraphical and geomorphological relationships show that the deposits are between Eocene and Pliocene in age. Considering the structural history of the region and periods in the Cenozoic with palaeoclimatic conditions suitable for the production and transport of gravels, we hypothesize that the dramatic base-level fall during the Late Miocene Messinian salinity crisis in combination with a favorable palaeoclimate caused the incision of valleys and their subsequent filling with conglomerates. Sea-level change in the Mediterranean Sea and headward erosion of streams that were connected to the Egyptian Nile might have been the primary cause of valley incision and deposition of conglomerates, despite a location far inland from the coastline. We suggest that the deposits document a relatively young Neogene (Messinian to early Pliocene) trans-Saharan river system unrelated to uplift of the Ethiopian Plateau.

Abstract

The age of the Hudi Chert fauna is highly controversial and crucial for the reconstruction of the geological history of the Nile valley. Herein, six species of Ampullariidae (Gastropoda) are described from the Hudi Chert Formation in the Republic of the Sudan, documenting that alleged relations of the Hudi Chert fauna with Oligocene faunas from Egypt turned out to be based on misidentifications. Although an Oligocene age cannot be excluded, we propose an Eocene age for the Hudi Chert fauna based on the known stratigraphic range of the newly established genus Sudanistes . A Neogene age is clearly excluded based on the presence of the exclusively Palaeogene genus Pseudoceratodus . The Hudi Chert ampullariids lived in an extensive freshwater system of swamps and ponds, whereas riverine conditions and deep lake setting are unlikely depositional environments. Pila busserti Harzhauser & Neubauer is described as a new species and Sudanistes Harzhauser & Neubauer is introduced as a new genus.

Abstract

Highly bioturbated beds in small sedimentary outcrops have been reported, for the first time, from two localities near the Gedaref town. The trace-bearing beds are medium-to fine-grained sandstones associated with mudstones, assuming a coarsening upward sequence. The trace fossils were identified as Thalassinoides isp. and Skolithos ichnofacies association namely: Skolithos, Monocraterion, Diplocraterion and Conichnus isp. Based on the aforementioned litho and biofacies associations, the studied sediments might have been deposited in a more distal facies of a fluvial system, most probably in a deltaic environment.

12. Terrestrial palynology and age assessment of the Gedaref Formation (eastern Sudan)

Abstract

This paper presents the first palynological results from subsurface strata of the Gedaref Formation, a succession of intercalated sandstones and mudstones in eastern Sudan. The top of the formation yielded a well preserved and fairly diversified sporomorph assemblage. Palm pollen, which are typical elements in contemporaneous West African coastal basins, were recorded in the present material, namely Longapertites , Mauritiidites , Monocolpites , Proxapertites and Spinizonocolpites. The coexistence of marker species such as Cristaeturites cristatus , Foveomonocolpites bauchiensis , Mauritiidites crassibaculatus , Monocolpites marginatus , Periretisyncolpites giganteus, Proteacidites sigalii , Proxapertites operculatus , Racemonocolpites cf. racematus , Retidiporites magdalenensis , Retitricolpites clarensis and Scabratriporites samoilovitchii indicates a Maastrichtian age for the top of the Gedaref Formation which was previously thought to be of Jurassic age. The occurrence of abundant structured phytoclasts, membraneous tissues and very little amorphous material suggests deposition in high energy fluvial settings close to the source vegetation. The frequent occurrence of pollen grains assigned to the Palmae group supports the prevalence of warm-humid conditions during the deposition of the studied sediments.

Abstract

Field observations of cases of biodiversity destruction and mankind's impact on desertification are discussed. Controversial cases of vegetation conservation and their effect on the reconstruction of ecosystems are also discussed. The importance of desert plants in the dry ecosystems of the Arab world are demonstrated, showing the importance of such indigenous genetical resources in stopping desertification and the necessity to support the sustainable use of natural resources. The study shows that in the Arab world's dry ecosystems, sufficient biodiversity and genetical resources exist to support natural vegetation, assure the stoppage of degradation and desertification and fix sands if sustainably used. Case studies from Bahrain are taken as examples.

Abstract

In this paper we discuss how low spatial resolution (1 km) ERS ATSR-2 and NOAA AVHRR satellite data were used to map and monitor changes in the grazing vegetation of the Badia region of Jordan. This area is typical of many arid zone grazing areas, comprising sparse vegetation and highly reflective soils. These two factors were found to severely limit the usefulness of satellite-derived vegetation indices that are frequently used to map and monitor vegetation in more temperate areas. Furthermore, the relationship between vegetation indices and percentage vegetation cover was found to be site-specific, thus reducing their application for large-scale vegetation monitoring. As an alternative, a hybrid geometric optical/empirically based model was developed for the area. This was based on the illumination geometry and reflectance values from the red and near-infrared scattergram of the satellite images. The output of the model was a series of maps indicating percentage vegetation cover for different dates and these were used to construct maps showing areas of vegetation change. Strong correlations (r(2) = 0.837) were found between estimates of percentage vegetation cover derived from the model, and measurements made at a series of 16 field sites in the area. The use of geometric optical models based on satellite imagery improves the ability to map areas of grazing vegetation in arid areas such as the Badia and provides a good alternative to the use of vegetation indices.

Abstract

The use of plants for the treatment of patients with diabetes is common throughout the world. Varthemia iphionoides (Compositae) is widely distributed in Jordan, and its extract has been used in the treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus. The present study investigates the effect of an aqueous extract of V iphionoides on blood glucose levels in 12 normal rats and 12 rats with streptozocin-induced diabetes mellitus. The aqueous extract of V iphionoides reduced mean ± SEM blood glucose levels in normoglycemic rats from 95.4 ± 6.2 mg/dL to 75.3 ± 7.9 mg/dL and to 63 ± 10 mg/dL 4 and 24 hours, respectively, after administration of the extract by gastric intubation. No changes in the blood glucose concentration of normoglycemic rats were noticed 1 hour after administration. Significant decreases in the blood glucose levels of the hyperglycemic rats were observed 1, 4, and 24 hours after administration of the plant extract (from 535.8 ± 15.5 mg/dL to 145.7 ± 33.4 mg/dL, 247.5 ± 40.1 mg/dL, and 345.1 ± 65.5 mg/dL, respectively). However, no significant dose-response relationship was observed in the hyperglycemic rats on administration of various doses of the plant extract. Study results show that an aqueous extract of V iphionoides has hypoglycemic properties that should be investigated further.
