Tertiary Sequence Stratigraphy of Bird Head Area, Eastern Indonesia
A long depositional period of Papua limestone called Kais Formation, which is overlain by clastic sediments of Steenkool Formation, reflects an interesting stratigraphic architecture in the West Papua region.

Quaternary chronostratigraphy of south Spitsbergen
Recent detailed investigations of Quaternary sediments in south Spitsbergen enabled us to choose several key areas in this region (Lindner et al. 1984, 1986; Butrym et al. 1987). Samples collected in these areas were thermoluminescence and radiocarbon dated, and applied for a chronostratigraphic scheme of the Quaternary for this part of Svalbard (Fig ...

Toward a Robust Plio‐Pleistocene Chronostratigraphy for ODP Site 762
The advent of rapidly acquired proxy records provides paleoceanographers and paleoclimatologists with a wealth of high‐resolution data. These data are a boon for the community, as they enable millennial or even submillennial scale interpretation of past ...

A Database of Radiocarbon Dates for Palaeoenvironmental Research in Eastern Africa
Radiocarbon dating is one of the most widely available and applied techniques to develop Late Quaternary chronologies of many ecosystems and is, thus, utilized in Quaternary studies, archaeology, hydrology, geomorphology, palaeoanthropology ...

Here we present a high-resolution, continuous seismostratigraphic framework that for the first time, connects the over 1,000 km long western Svalbard-Barents Sea margin and covers the last ∼2.7 million years (Ma).

Coral reefs globally are impacted by natural and anthropogenic stressors that are compounded by climate change. Understanding past reef responses to natural stressors (cyclones, sea-level change, freshwater inputs, and sedimentation) can provide ...

Archaediscoid foraminifers and their significance in biostratigraphy and chronostratigraphy of the lower Carboniferous deposits, a case study on the northern Alborz [PDF]
A relatively complete succession of Viséan to Serpukhovian rocks is exposed in the northern Alborz, where two sections Naserabad and Dozdehban have been selected for their biostratigraphic interest.

Is there a role for sequence stratigraphy in chronostratigraphy?
Sequence stratigraphy revolutionized the field of stratigraphy in the late 1970s and 1980s by providing an interpretive depositional framework for integrating diverse stratigraphic data at the scale of sedimentary basins. However, a lack of consensus on criteria for recognizing, mapping and hence dating sequence boundaries, interpretations of uneven ...

Long-term landscape evolution of the Molise sector of the central-southern Apennines, Italy
This paper concerns the reconstruction of the main stages of the long-term landscape evolution of the Molise portion of the central-southern Apennines along a transect divided into three sectors (SW, Central and NE).
