Climate variability and ocean fertility during the Aptian Stage [PDF]
Several studies have been conducted to reconstruct temperature variations across the Aptian Stage, particularly during early Aptian Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE) 1a.

The Aptian Stage: Back to fundamentals
The original definitions of the Aptian, Albian and Urgonian stages by d'Orbigny (1840, 1842, 1847, respectively) on the basis of lithological and paleonto- logical criteria were sufficiently clear and should not have generated the misinterpretations and confusion that began at the end of the 19th century and continue today. The purpose of this paper is

Upper Aptian calcareous algae from Padurea Craiului (Northern Apuseni mountains, Romania)
A study of calcareous strata previously assigned to the Barremian-Early Aptian interval in the northwestern part of P?durea Craiului, (Apuseni Mountains), led to the identification of a micropaleontological association indicative of a Late Aptian age ...

A stratonomic and micropaleontological analysis of the Aptian marls cropping out in the La Tuilière area near Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt (Vaucluse, SE France), enabled us to reconstitute a continuous succession almost 120 m thick, that includes the upper ...

Lead isotopic record of Barremian–Aptian marine sediments: Implications for large igneous provinces and the Aptian climatic crisis [PDF]
We present initial isotopic ratios of lead for Early Cretaceous (Barremian–Aptian) sections from Shatsky Rise (Pacific) and Gorgo a Cerbara (Italy). Our Pb isotopic data track an interval representing Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE)-1a, which is characterized by quasi-global deposition of organic carbon-rich black shale.

Substantiation of the Barremian/Aptian boundary
This paper focuses on the Barremian/Aptian boundary in the Trans-Caspian area. Results of a stratigraphical study of the uppermost Barremian and the lower Aptian succession in the Trans-Caspian area are presented. The bed-by-bed description of three sections — Keldzhe, Tekedzhik and Utuludzha — is given as well as detailed lithologic columns.

THE APTIAN STRATIGRAPHY OF SOUTHERN TUARKYR (NW TURKMENISTAN, CENTRAL ASIA) [PDF]
The ammonite successions of Turkmenistan, particularly those of the Greater Balkhan and Tuarkyr areas, are considered references for the Aptian Stage. Six sections across the uppermost Barremian - basal Upper Aptian interval were studied in the Tuarkyr ...

Barremian–early Aptian charophyte biostratigraphy revisited [PDF]
New Barremian-early Aptian charophyte biozonations are proposed here based on the charophyte succession in the Maestrat Basin (Iberian Chain, Spain). Biostratigraphic analysis distinguished two biozonations, European and Eurasian, which were compared to establish correlations.

Palynology of Early Cretaceous (Barremian to Aptian) hydrocarbon (methane) seep carbonates and associated mudstones, Wollaston Forland, Northeast Greenland [PDF]
Palynostratigraphic and palynofacies analysis have been performed on hydrocarbon seep carbonate, carbonate nodule and mudstone samples from the Early Cretaceous Kuhnpasset Beds in the Kuhnpasset area of Wollaston Forland, Northeast Greenland.
