Age constraints for the Trachilos footprints from Crete [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 We present an updated time frame for the 30 m thick late Miocene sedimentary Trachilos section from the island of Crete that contains the potentially oldest hominin footprints. The section is characterized by normal magnetic polarity.

Updating a Paleogene magnetobiochronological time scale through graphical integration [PDF]
MethodsX, 2021 All studies focused on the evaluation of paleoecological variability over geological time must be linked to a specific age or time interval, which can be defined using different time scales (biostratigraphic, chronostratigraphic, geochronological or ...
