Grain crushing is also common with minor amounts of rotation. In the dark brown domain, clasts range from small to medium in size. They range from sub-angular to sub-rounded in shape. A few lineations and rotation structures can be seen in this domain.

PBURWELL #4-87

Brown sediment with clasts ranging from small to medium in size. Clast shape ranges from sub-angular to rounded. Two mains domains can be observed; one mainly contains small clasts, and the other is a mix of small and medium sized clasts. The finer grained domain contains some organic material and is abundant in lineations. The coarser domain is also abundant in lineations but also contains crushed grains and comet structures.

PBURWELL #5-87

Brown sample with two domains. One domain contains many small grains that are clustered together. The other domain is a darker brown and contains clasts that are well dispersed.

A few rotation structures can also be seen in the well dispersed domain. Some grain crushing/ stacking can also be seen throughout the sample.

Lineations can be commonly seen throughout the sample, along with water escape structures in the clay rich domain. Rotation structures, comet structures, and grain crushing are also present.

A domain-general perspective on medial frontal brain activity during performance monitoring

Activity of the medial frontal cortex (MFC) has been implicated in attention regulation and performance monitoring. The MFC is thought to generate several event-related potential (ERPs) components, known as medial frontal negativities (MFNs), that are elicited when a behavioural response becomes difficult to control (e.g., following an error or shifting from a frequently executed response). The functional significance of MFNs has traditionally been interpreted in the context of the paradigm used to elicit a specific response, such as errors. In a series of studies, we consider the functional similarity of multiple MFC brain responses by designing novel performance monitoring tasks and exploiting advanced methods for electroencephalography (EEG) signal processing and robust estimation statistics for hypothesis testing. In study 1, we designed a response cueing task and used Independent Component Analysis (ICA) to show that the latent factors describing a MFN to stimuli that cued the potential need to inhibit a response on upcoming trials also accounted for medial frontal brain responses that occurred when individuals made a mistake or inhibited an incorrect response. It was also found that increases in theta occurred to each of these task events, and that the effects were evident at the group level and in single cases. In study 2, we replicated our method of classifying MFC activity to cues in our response task and showed again, using additional tasks, that error commission, response inhibition, and, to a lesser extent, the processing of performance feedback all elicited similar changes across MFNs and theta power. In the final study, we converted our response cueing paradigm into a saccade cueing task in order to examine the oscillatory dynamics of response preparation. We found that, compared to easy pro-saccades, successfully preparing a difficult anti-saccadic response was characterized by an increase in MFC theta and the suppression of posterior alpha power prior to executing the eye movement. These findings align with a large body of literature on performance monitoring and ERPs, and indicate that MFNs, along with their signature in theta power, reflects the general process of controlling attention and adapting behaviour without the need to induce error commission, the inhibition of responses, or the presentation of negative feedback.
