New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025 (NZGT 2025) is the first comprehensive update and revision of the New Zealand Geological Timescale in a decade. The criteria used to establish age ranges of New Zealand Stages within the NZGT have been reviewed, calibrated, and revised where required against the 2023/04 International Chronostratigraphic Chart and ...

The Jurassic–Cretaceous Transition in the Slovenian Basin (Alpine Atlantic): Further Evidence for Palaeoenvironmental Record in Pelagic Sediments

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Over the vast area of present‐day Europe, the Tithonian–Berriasian transition was a time of climate aridization, which was supposedly related to the more general trend of the latest Jurassic–earliest Cretaceous cooling and restrictions in atmospheric ...

Carbonate Sedimentation Rates Today and in the Past: Holocene of Florida Bay, Bahamas, and Bermuda vs. Upper Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous of the Jura Mountains (Switzerland and France)

Geologia Croatica, 2003
Lagoonal to intertidal sediments from the Holocene in Florida Bay,on the Bahamas, and in Bermuda are compared to similar facies in theKimmeridgian and Berriasian of the Swiss and French Jura Mountains.Dating by 14C permits the estimation of sediment ...

Oldest Cretaceous latimeriid elucidates cranial evolution in derived and extant coelacanths (Actinistia, Latimeriidae)

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract The fossil record of coelacanths (Actinistia) is diminished by several nominal gaps that obscure vital information pertaining to the clade's evolutionary history. Latimeriidae, the family that includes the extant coelacanth Latimeria, in addition to the Cenozoic, has an outstanding missing gap of 50 myr during the Mesozoic, with no records of ...

Climate characteristics of the eastern Mongolian Plateau, China during the early Early Cretaceous (145–132 Ma): Palynological evidence from the Tongbomiao Formation in Well Hong-6, Hailar Basin

China Geology, 2022
This study identified two palynological assemblages, namely Bayanhuasporites-Cycadopites-Protoconiferus and Cicatricosisporites-Cedripites-Perinopollenites, in the Tongbomiao Formation in the Hongqi Sag in the Hailar Basin, Inner Mongolia, China for the ...

First pterosaur footprints from the Tera Group (Tithonian–Berriasian) Cameros Basin, Spain

Journal of Iberian Geology, 2017
The discovery of the Laran˜e (La Rioja, Spain) ichnological site provides the first outcrop pterosaur footprints in the Tera Group of the Cameros Basin. The footprint have characteristics similar to some of those already known in the Oncala Group, suggesting that possibly pterosaurs, which lived in this area during the deposition of the Tithonian ...

Testing Volcano Deformation Models Against 3D Seismic Reflection Imagery of Ancient Intrusions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Magma intrusion often drives uplift of the overburden and free surface. Analytical modeling of such surface uplift at active volcanoes allows us to estimate intrusion geometries and positions, as well as volume and pressure changes; these insights have proven critical to forecasting volcanic unrest and eruptions. However, it is rarely possible

Freshwater amphibians and squamates from Villeveyrac (lower Campanian; Hérault, France): palaeodiversity, palaeoenvironment and implications for the Late Cretaceous palaeobiogeography of the European herpetofauna

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The Late Cretaceous witnessed numerous transgression–regression sequences and the onset of a global cooling phase at the start of the Campanian. In the European archipelago, these environmental changes, combined with active plate tectonics, facilitated the formation of ephemeral land bridges that served as dispersal routes for a variety of ...

Upper Cretaceous Seismic Stratigraphy and Magma‐Enhanced Petroleum System of the Offshore Indus Basin

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Seismic data reveals Cretaceous stratigraphy and hydrocarbon potential beneath volcanic rocks in Offshore Indus Basin, where magmatic intrusions enhanced source rock maturation and hydrocarbon generation by 8%–18% during favourable timing coinciding with Deccan volcanism.

Black shale deposition during the Early Jurassic: Geochemistry of Pliensbachian and Toarcian sedimentary rocks of the Hunzen Well, Hils Syncline, Northwest German Basin

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 1451-1478, November 2025.
Our research uses a multidisciplinary approach, including organic and inorganic geochemistry, biostratigraphy, carbon isotope geochemistry and organic petrography to reconstruct depositional conditions and organic matter accumulation during the Pliensbachian and Toarcian.
