The equatorial Pacific High-Productivity Belt: Elements for a Synthesis of Deep Sea Drilling Project Leg 85 Resultspaleoceanography [PDF]
Leg 85 of the Deep Sea Drilling Project operated in the eastern central Pacific in the region of the equatorial highproductivity belt. We recovered uppermost Eocene to Quaternary reference sections amenable to fine-scale stratigraphic and ...

Cluster‐based chemostratigraphy using XRF‐CS enables high‐resolution correlation of event deposits across contrasting depositional settings in the Japan Trench. This approach reveals previously unrecognised events and compositional heterogeneity, offering new insights into sediment provenance and earthquake‐triggered deposition, with implications for ...

Abstract International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Site U1417, located in the Surveyor Fan (Gulf of Alaska), preserves hemipelagic sediments influenced by glacial and fluvial depositional processes from the Cordilleran Ice Sheet in the Chugach–St. Elias Mountains and Coastal Mountains.

Abstract During the Eocene‐Oligocene Transition (ca. 34 Ma), the Earth underwent a dramatic decline in atmospheric CO2, global cooling, a deepening of the carbonate compensation depth (CCD), and the formation of a permanent ice sheet on Antarctica. The expansion of Antarctic glaciers eroded the underlying bedrock and increased the weathering flux to ...

Abstract The Indo‐Pacific Gateway is a narrow tropical passage connecting the Pacific and Indian Oceans, and alterations in its topographic configuration can significantly influence the volume of water exchanged between the two oceans through the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF).

On the Cretaceous origin of the Order Syracosphaerales and the genus Syracosphaera [PDF]
New scanning electron microscope observations of unadulterated calcareous nannofossil assemblages on lamina surfaces of Cretaceous Tanzania Drilling Project sediments reveal high diversity in the < 3 μm size-range and high abundances of small and ...

Evaluating the Reliability of Grain‐Size Sorting for Organic Biomarker Analysis
Abstract Organic and inorganic geochemical proxies are fundamental for interpreting past climate variability. For inorganic analysis, marine sediments are often size fractionated to isolate foraminifera, while organic analysis employs subsamples of bulk sediment.

Petrogenesis of diachronous mixed siliciclastic-carbonate megafacies in the cool-water Oligocene Tikorangi Formation, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]
The Oligocene (Whaingaroan-Waitakian) Tikorangi Formation is a totally subsurface, lithostratigraphically complex, mixed siliciclastic-limestone-rich sequence forming an important fracture reservoir within Taranaki Basin, New Zealand.

Abstract Long‐term rates of crustal uplift in southern Calabria and NE Sicily are incompletely understood due to limited information about the age of marine terraces at 1.0–1.3 km above sea level (asl). This study provides a new constraint on high‐elevation terrace ages through integrated analysis of geochronology, stratigraphy, shoreline modeling, and

We present trace metal geochemistry and stable isotope records for the middle Eocene Alano di Piave section, NE Italy, deposited during magnetochron C18n in the marginal Tethys Ocean. We identify a $\sim$ 500 kyr long carbon isotope perturbation event we
