The Initial Opening of the Drake Passage Occurred During ca. 62‐59 Ma
Abstract Although the Drake Passage has been considered a critical component of ocean circulation and climate, its initial opening age remains controversial due to the weak constraints on the paleoposition of the Antarctic Peninsula. Here, new zircon U‐Pb geochronological studies are conducted on the Barchans Islands, providing a critical age ...

Triassic radiolarian biostratigraphy [PDF]
Abstract This paper summarizes 30 years of research on the biostratigraphy of Triassic radiolarians and presents a correlation of currently-used radiolarian zonations established in North America, Europe, Japan and Far East Russia. An up-to-date stratigraphic distribution of all hitherto described and still valid Triassic genera is provided ...

The utility of deep-water agglutinated Foraminiferal acmes for correlating Eocene to Oligocene abyssal sediments in the North Atlantic and Western Tethys [PDF]
Quantitative analysis of Deep-water Agglutinated Foraminifera (DWAF) assemblages from key ODP sites in the North Atlantic reveal the presence of stratigraphically-significant abundance maxima, that may be useful for correlating sedimentary sequences ...

While the Smithian–Spathian boundary carbon isotopic excursion has been traditionally interpreted as capturing global carbon cycle behaviour, recent studies have suggested that at least some Early Triassic carbon isotopic excursions may incorporate influences from authigenic or early diagenetic processes.

Abstract Deep‐sea mud enriched in rare‐earth elements (REE), termed REE‐rich mud, is a promising seafloor mineral resource. Data from a decade of surveys have revealed that the mud with the highest REE concentration occurs in the pelagic realm of the western North Pacific Ocean, with at least two layers of elevated REE concentration.

The biostratigraphy of the Albian and Cenomanian succession in the Ventnor No. 2 borehole, Isle of Wight [PDF]
This report describes the foraminifera found in the uppermost part of the Gault, Upper Greensand, Glauconitic Marl and West Melbury Marly Chalk of Ventnor No.2 Borehole (the "Carstone of the Isle of Wight" was barren of calcareous microfaunas).

Abstract The calcite tests of foraminifera used for reconstructions of past oceanic and climatic conditions are altered after deposition in pelagic sediments by recrystallisation but this process remains poorly understood. To investigate the controls and impacts of recrystallisation we compare laser ablation (LA‐) ICP‐MS‐derived Mg/Ca and Sr/Ca ratio ...

Abstract The Eastern Equatorial Pacific serves as a critical region for understanding the interplay between phytoplankton dynamics and global carbon cycling over glacial‐interglacial timescales. This study investigates the calcareous nannofossils from sediment core MV1014‐02‐17JC (17JC) and previously published diatom assemblage data from core MD02 ...

Middle Darriwilian conodont zones in the uppermost San Juan limestone and the lower member of the Las Aguaditas formation, central Precordillera of San Juan, Argentina [PDF]
The geological province of Precordillera is located in western Argentina. It extends 450 km meridionally and 110 km from east to west (Fig. 1) (Furque and Cuerda, 1979).
