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.

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.

The Aptian evaporites of the South Atlantic: a climatic paradox? [PDF]
Abstract. For a long time, evaporitic sequences have been interpreted as indicative of an arid climate. Such systematic interpretations led to the suggestion that the central segment of the South Atlantic (20°–0°) was characterized by an arid climate during the upper Aptian.

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 ...
