ENHYDROSS: A New Mechanistic Model Supports the Trans‐Oceanic Dispersal Capability of Terrestrial Vertebrates

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We introduce ENHYDROSS, a new mechanistic model that uses optimal swimming speed and minimum cost of transport to estimate maximum dispersal distances and durations for vertebrates, enabling assessment of long‐distance oceanic dispersal potential. Applied to a range of extant and extinct animals, the model's estimates generally align with observed data;

The stratigraphical distribution of Mid-Cretaceous foraminifera near Ventor, Isle of Wight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Ventnor No. 2 Borehole, located near Ventnor, Isle of Wight, penetrated the basal part of the Chalk Group and the Selborne Group before terminating in the upper part of the Lower Greensand Group (Sandrock Formation).

A basal elasmosaurid plesiosaur from the upper Albian– lower Cenomanian? Cambridge Greensand

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica
An historical indeterminate elasmosaurid specimen CAMSM X50356 (CAMSM = Sedgwick Museum) collected during the 19th century is described. The specimen comes from the Cenomanian Cambridge Greensand although the possibility of an Albian–lower Cenomanian age

Cenomanian rotaliids (Foraminiferida) from Oman and Morocco

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2013
The small rotaliids (Foraminiferida) found in Cenomanian rock thin sections of Oman and Morocco are diversified. A continuum of morphotypes is divided within 3 taxa described as subspecies of Rotorbinella mesogeensis Tronchetti 1981 from which they share many morphological characteristics.

A 3D View of Igneous Plumbing Systems in Sedimentary Basins: Examples From the Santos and Campos Basins (Brazilian Margin)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Igneous Plumbing Systems in sedimentary basins comprise a complex of interconnected intrusive bodies that lead to volcano formation, though their 3D distribution and dynamics are not fully understood. We characterized the post‐breakup igneous plumbing systems at the Santos and Campos Basins using wells and 3D high‐resolution seismic and ...

Large Benthic Foraminifera Biozonation of Mauddud Formation in Selected Section from Balad Oil Field, Central Iraq

open access: yesIraqi Geological Journal
Three subsurface sections Ba-1, Ba-4, and Ba-8, and sixty-five thin sections were examined to investigate the biostratigraphy of the Mauddud Formation (age Early Albian - Late Cenomanian) within the Balad Oil Field located in central Iraq.

Orbital frequencies in the carbonate sedimentary record: distorted by diagenesis? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The most important archive of Earth’s climate change through geologic history is the sedimentary rock record. Rhythmic sedimentary alternations are usually interpreted as a consequence of periodic variations in the orbital parameters of the Earth.

Depositional environment and source rock potential of Cenomanian and Turonian sedimentary rocks of the Tarfaya Basin, Southwest Morocco [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Detailed organic and inorganic geochemical analyses were used to assess the depositional environment and source rock potential of the Cenomanian and Turonian oil shale deposits in the Tarfaya Basin.
