Biostratigraphy of Gurpi Formation in Samand anticline (Lurestan province) Based on calcareous nannofossils [PDF]
The present study is an attempt to biostratigraphically classify the rocks of Gurpi Formation at Samand Anticline with the help of calcareous nannofossils. The succession measures 197 meters in thickness and consists of shale, marl and marly limestone. A

Abstract Hydrothermal activity during continental breakup and early oceanic spreading is poorly understood due to limited samples. A basalt‐hosted hydrothermal mineralization, drilled during IODP Expedition 367/368 at the northern South China Sea at the continent‐ocean transition provides a unique opportunity to investigate this phenomenon.

Abstract The climate–weathering feedback exerts a vital role in long‐term planetary habitability. However, its operational timescales remain unclear due to challenges in quantifying past weathering intensity, especially in marine sediments—the final sink of continental weathering fluxes. Using Holocene Mediterranean sediments as a test case, we examine

Based on a continuous succession of ammonite and calcareous nannofossil assemblages, the main purpose of this paper is the correlation between ammonite and calcareous nannofossil zone boundaries in two expanded sections from the Basque-Cantabrian area ...

In this study, we use the extensive fossil record of the extinct Late Cretaceous Trachichthyid fish genus, Hoplopteryx, from the British Chalk Group to explore how this family responded to past climate change events. Our study is the first to demonstrate that seawater palaeotemperature, estimated from oxygen stable isotope values, is a significant ...

Calcareous nannofossils and Mesozoic oceanic anoxic events
Abstract Twenty-five years ago, Mesozoic oceanic anoxic events (OAEs) were documented and formalised as intervals of widespread to global deposition of organic matter. The Toarcian, Early Aptian (OAE1a) and latest Cenomanian (OAE2) OAEs are truly global in nature, commonly carbonate-poor, and typically represented by organic carbon-rich black shales.

ABSTRACT Detailed analysis of Lutetian–Bartonian deposits in the Paris Basin (‘Marnes et Caillasses’ Formation) provides new evidence of concomitant magnesian fibrous clays (palygorskite and sepiolite) and early microcrystalline dolomite. Although relatively uncommon in sedimentary archives, palygorskite and sepiolite are found in a wide range of ...

Implications of Northwest Pacific Ocean Eolian Records for Northern Hemisphere Wind System Evolution
Abstract Northwest Pacific Ocean sedimentary eolian records preserve abundant information about the temporal evolution of Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation. The large spatial scale of these wind systems means that they play key roles in driving dust transportation from inland areas to the open ocean. However, the altitudinal range of dominant

Abstract Northern Andean volcanism is characterized by an intense Quaternary activity, whose onshore deposits have partly covered Mio‐Pliocene products associated with the early development of the arc, making it difficult to obtain an exhaustive catalog of past eruptions.
