Sedimentology, lithostratigraphy, palaeogeography and water level changes in a lacustrine basin: the depositional model of Lake Pannon Orsolya Sztanó, Attila Balázs, István Róbert Bartha, Hana Ben Mahrez, Anna Horányi, Ádám Kovács, Michal Šujan, Lilla Tőkés, Balázs Törő, Fanni Vallner, Gábor Varga, Imre Magyar Geological Society Special Publication, 2025 Advances in sedimentology and basin analysis have provided the foundation for a comprehensive basin-fill model and lithostratigraphic framework of Lake Pannon, in the Neogene Pannonian Basin, highlighting the dynamic changes of the depositional environments. The lake's c. 8 Myr long evolution began with transgression and deepening, followed by normal regression, forming sediment fill up to 7 km thick. Initial coarse-grained coastal deposits are overlain by offshore to deep-water marls, with varying carbonate and organic-matter content and include both anoxic laminites and sediment gravity-flow deposits. Later, confined and unconfined turbidite systems developed due to interactions between basin-floor relief and shelf-slope progradation. Stacked deltaic cycles followed by clayey alluvial plain deposits with anastomosing and meandering sandy channel fills comprise the upper part of the succession. Repeated aggradational to progradational clinothem architectures, thickness and distribution of muddy to sandy delta lobes on the shelf, and distribution of turbidite lobes in the deep basins reflect lake-level fluctuations. While climate primarily controlled lake level, coastal sedimentation is identified as a new factor driving long-term lake-level rise. Therefore, Lake Pannon's stratigraphy demonstrates that, in contrast to marine systems, in supply-dominated endorheic lakes accommodation space is created by sedimentation.
Re-interpreting renewable and non-renewable water resources in the over-pressured Pannonian Basin Brigitta Czauner, Márk Szijártó, Orsolya Sztanó, Hana Ben Mahrez, John Molson, Soma Oláh, Judit Mádl-Szőnyi Scientific Reports, 2024 With climate change, population growth and the resulting escalating water shortage, humanity is increasingly turning to non-renewable and even fossil groundwater resources, which poses a major challenge to sustainable water management. In this study, 2D basin-scale numerical simulations were carried out on the COMSOL Multiphysics ® finite element numerical platform to identify non-renewable water resources in the Central Pannonian Basin (Central Europe, Hungary) based on the lack of hydraulic connection to recharge areas. The concept and boundary conditions (fixed water table configuration at the top, pressure-elevation profiles on the lateral sides, and constant pressure on the bottom) were derived from a previous basin-scale hydraulic data evaluation study, while the hydrostratigraphic subdivision was based on seismic and well log interpretations. As a result, topography-driven groundwater flow systems fed by meteoric water infiltration were separated from a transition zone, which contains non-renewable groundwater resources and covers 85% area of the simulated 110 km long and roughly 1600 m deep cross-section what was previously thought to be fully renewable. Such complex flow pattern and re-interpretation of the renewable and non-renewable groundwater resources can be expected in any terrestrial sedimentary basin with over-pressured flow domains.
Hydrostratigraphic decomposition of fluvio-deltaic sediments inferred from seismic geomorphology and geophysical well logs in the Pannonian Basin, Hungary Hana Ben Mahrez, Patrícia Márton, Béla Márton, Judit Mádl Szőnyi, József Kovács, Orsolya Sztanó Global and Planetary Change, 2023 Heterogeneity and anisotropy of lithological units influences hydraulic conductivity on several scales. The purpose of this study is to develop a novel method supporting hydrostratigraphic classification by considering horizontal and vertical variations of sand content in relation with the paleo-depositional environment. The workflow was applied for the uppermost ca. 1800 m thick fluvio-deltaic deposits (Great Plain Aquifer) of late Neogene to Quaternary age basin-fill succession in the eastern part of the Pannonian basin in Hungary. Five combined 3D seismic volumes, seven master horizons, and 30 well logs were analyzed. First, RMS amplitude maps were extracted to interpret the seismic geomorphological features and depositional architectures. Their associated lithology was inferred from wireline logs (GR and SP) by calculating the shale volume and the net-to-gross sand ratio for 30 m thick intervals. These were used to calibrate the seismic facies as a proxy for the horizontal distribution of sand versus shale. This method allowed the identification of sand bodies, i.e.: deltaic lobes, complex channel belts, simple fluvial channels behaving as aquifers, and the dominantly muddy delta plain to flood plain suits as aquitard. The vertical pattern of sand distribution was also evaluated. Three major stratiform and some corridor-like minor hydrostratigraphic units were defined instead of the former regional (basin) scale aquifer unit. 1) Laterally extended interval of stacked deltaic lobes of high sand ratios and high rate of connectedness, at the bottom of the studied interval. 2) General presence of extended muddy floodplains with anastomosing river systems, characterized by 100–200 m wide channels, low sand ratio, and limited connectedness: 3) widespread meandering and/or braided river systems with high sand ratios and high connectedness in the Quaternary. Within unit 2) spatially and temporally variable appearance of major 500–3600 m wide meandering channel belts produce locally high sand-ratio corridors in the NE-SW direction. A workflow adapted from the oil-and-gas industry was successfully applied to distinguish units of varying sand content and hydraulic conductivity. This approach can be used on basin to local scale to build a spatially complex facies-based model of hydrostratigraphy. Thus, a robust heterogeneous geological model serves as a base for investigating fluid flow on the required scale.
Paleoenvironmental reconstruction of Lake Pannon (Upper Miocene) successions in South Zselic, Hungary Fanni Szabó, Orsolya Sztanó, Krisztina Sebe Foldtani Kozlony, 2023 A Mecsektől nyugatra eső dél-zselici terület geológiai felépítéséről viszonylag keveset tudunk, pedig kulcsfontosságú terület, hiszen a mélyföldtani adatok és a feltárások alapján össze tudnánk kapcsolni a Mecsek és a Dráva-medence pannon-tavi üledékképződési környezeteit.
 Ebben a tanulmányban elvégeztük három Mecsek környéki, kevésbé ismert neogén rétegsor elemzését, ahol a tavi üledékek a felszínre bukkannak. Felhagyott homokbányákban tettünk terepi megfigyeléseket Szigetvár környékén, majd fácieselemzést végeztünk: nyolc fáciesegységet és négy fáciesegyüttest különítettünk el. A fáciesegyüttesek alapján elkülönítettünk deltamedrekben (CH), deltaág-elvégződésekben (TDC), torkolati zátonyokon (MB) és nyíltvízben (FF) zajló üledékképződést. Megállapítottuk, hogy három fő üledékképződési folyamat volt hatással a vizsgált rétegsorok képződésére. Ezek a delta síkságon lévő eltérő méretű medrekben zajló üledékképződés, a völgybevágódások kialakulása, valamint egy vízszintemelkedés hatására bekövetkező elöntés. A homokos, mederkitöltő egységekben két különböző mederméretet határoztunk meg. A nagyobbak deltaágak, míg a kisebbek deltaág-elvégződések és azokhoz kapcsolódó torkolati zátonyok. Az agyagos összlet kimélyülés hatására alakult ki a hullámzás által legyalult elöntési felszín felett. Az őskörnyezeti rekonstrukció arra mutat, hogy az összes feltárás rétegsora egy többszintű, összetett völgykitöltés során keletkezett. A völgybevágódást egy 15-20 méteres vízszintesés hozta létre, amely fokozatosan feltöltődött a vízszint emelkedésének ütemében. Ezekre a völgykitöltő üledékekre települ a fedő agyagos rész, amely mindegyik feltárásban hasonlóan jelenik meg, és egy elöntési esemény hatására jött létre. A vizsgált feltárásokban két fő szállítási irányt állapítottunk meg. Az egyik DDK-i, amely a völgybevágódás irányát mutatja és megegyezik a Pannon-tó selfperemének a területen megállapított épülési irányával. A másik NyDNy-i, amely a mellékvölgy alárendeltsége miatt eltérő a jellemző szállítási iránytól. A Pannon-tóból már ismert völgykitöltéseket összevetve a dél-zselici területen létrejött völgybevágódással megállapítottuk, hogy ezek egy, vagy akár több 15-20 méteres vízszintesési esemény hatására alakulhattak ki, melyek jellemzőek voltak a Pannon-tóra. Eredményeink hozzájárulnak a völgybevágódások, deltaág-elvégződések, torkolati zátonyok és tavi környezetben létrejött delták megismeréséhez, valamint a tavi vízszintváltozások hatásainak vizsgálatához.
Competition of deltaic feeder systems reflected by slope progradation: a high-resolution example from the Late Miocene-Pliocene, Drava Basin, Croatia Marko Špelić, Ádám Kovács, Bruno Saftić, Orsolya Sztanó International Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 The thick Lake Pannon sedimentary record provides insights into the downdip and lateral development of stratigraphic surfaces through the analysis of the basin-scale clinoform progradation. The clinoform architecture from the eastern part of the Drava Basin (Pannonian Basin System) was interpreted to reflect the base-level changes. A major downlap surface interpreted as a flooding event followed by rejuvenation of slope progradation was recognized on 2D seismic sections. Detailed 3D seismic interpretation combined with well data revealed that the large sigmoidal and the overlying small oblique clinoform sets that downlap the large one only apparently produce the geometry of a maximum flooding surface. Instead, the 3D mapping revealed the influence of two competing slope systems arriving from the north and northwest. Lateral switching of sediment input, similar to many recent deltaic systems. e.g., Danube and Po rivers led to the variability of stratigraphic surfaces, lithology, and thickness, which resulted in non-uniform shelf-edge migration. These observations were supported by forward stratigraphic modeling simulating different scenarios, which led to the generation of the depositional architecture with an apparent maximum flooding surface. This study also implies the potential pitfalls in basin analysis based only on scarce 2D seismic and emphasizes the role of lateral variations in sediment input controlling the depositional architecture.
From marginal outcrops to basin interior: a new perspective on the sedimentary evolution of the eastern Pannonian Basin István Róbert Bartha, D. Botka, Vivien Csoma, L. Katona, E. Tóth, I. Magyar, Lóránd Silye, O. Sztanó International Journal of Earth Sciences, 2022 Sedimentary successions exposed at basin margins as a result of late-stage inversion, uplift and erosion usually represent only a limited portion of the entire basin fill; thus, they are highly incomplete records of basin evolution. Small satellite basins, however, might have the potential of recording more complete histories. The late Miocene sedimentary history of the Șimleu Basin, a north-eastern satellite of the vast Pannonian Basin, was investigated through the study of large outcrops and correlative well-logs. A full transgressive–regressive cycle is reconstructed, which formed within a ca. 1 million-year time frame (10.6–9.6 Ma). The transgressive phase is represented by coarse-grained deltas overlain by deep-water lacustrine marls. Onset of the regressive phase is indicated by sandy turbidite lobes and channels, followed by slope shales, and topped by stacked deltaic lobes and fluvial deposits. The deep- to shallow-water sedimentary facies are similar to those deposited in the central, deep part of the Pannonian Basin. The Șimleu Basin is thus a close and almost complete outcrop analogue of the Pannonian Basin’s lacustrine sedimentary record known mainly from subsurface data, such as well-logs, cores and seismic sections from the basin interior. This study demonstrates that deposits of small satellite basins may reflect the whole sequence of processes that shaped the major basin, although at a smaller spatial and temporal scale.
An exceptional surface occurrence: the middle to upper Miocene succession of Pécs-Danitzpuszta (SW Hungary) Krisztina Sebe, G. Konrád, O. Sztanó Foldtani Kozlony, 2021 The Pécs-Danitzpuszta sand pit is the most important outcrop of the oldest Pannonian (upper Miocene, Tortonian) deposits in southern Hungary. A trench excavated in 2018 exposed Lake Pannon deposits and underlying Paratethys strata down to the upper Badenian (Serravallian), and together with the sand pit they make up a continuous sedimentary succession with a true thickness of ~220 metres. Due to tectonic deformation, middle Miocene deposits and carbonates in the lowermost Pannonian are overturned. Layers become vertical close to the marl-sand boundary, then the dip changes to normal, with continuously decreasing dip angles. The exposed succession starts with 5 m of upper Badenian (13.8-12.6 Ma old) calcareous marls and sandy limestones with sublittoral, then littoral molluscs, which were deposited in the normal salinity seawaters of the Central Paratethys. The overlying 8 m of sand, silt, sandy breccia and conglomerate are fossil-free,; only the lowermost silt layer contains reworked Badenian microfauna. This unit probably accumulated from gravity-driven flows in a fan-like, probably terrestrial depositional setting. The next 7.5 m of frequently alternating thin-bedded limestones, marls and clays with sublittoral biota represent rapid transgression. Foraminifers, ostracods, molluscs and calcareous nannoplankton indicate late Sarmatian, then Pannonian age for this interval. However, the locations of the boundaries indicated by the various groups are not are not consistent, making the position of the Sarmatian/Pannonian boundary uncertain. The Sarmatian beds with marine fossils still accumulated in the Paratethys, between ~12.1–11.6 Ma, under varying salinities due among others to temporary freshwater input. The Pannonian strata already represent sediments of the brackish Lake Pannon. Above these beds, uniform calcareous marl becomes dominant with some clay layers and graded or structureless conglomerate to sandstone interbeds. The deposition of the overall 64- m- thick Pannonian calcareous marl section took place in the open, probably few -hundred -metres -deep water of the lake between ~11.62 and 10.5–10.2 Ma. It may represent a rare, well-exposed surface occurrence of the Endrőd Formation which is known from thousands of wells in the Pannonian Basin. Above this section, a 6-7 -m- thick transitional interval of silty marls and sands is followed by ~140 m of limonitic, pebbly sands. They have poor to moderate sorting and rounding, metre -thick beds with transitional boundaries and abundant fossils and clasts reworked from older Miocene units. Their accumulation took place between 10.2-10.5 and 9.6 Ma by gravity flows connected to deep-water portions of fan deltas.
