Albian ammonites from northern Pakistan [PDF]
Acta Geologica Polonica, 2014 Abstract The occurrence of rich Albian ammonite faunas in what is now northern Pakistan has been known for more than 80 years, but there has been no comprehensive account of the assemblages present. A total of 36 taxa are described below. The middle part of the Lumshiwal Formation yields Upper Aptian ammonites south of the Samana Range. Elsewhere,

Albian sedimentation in western Atlas, Morocco
Cretaceous ResearchDetailed study of field sections and extensive ammonite collection allowed to specify the sedimentary evolution and age of the Albian series of the Western Atlas (Morocco). After a significant hiatus of earliest Albian age, the Albian transgression began in the late Douvilleiceras leightonense Zone with partly clastic deposits.

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
