Stage boundaries, global stratigraphy, and the time scale: towards a simplification
This paper examines four facets of stratigraphic terminology and usage considered faulty and proposes corrective measures. The four perfectible areas are: (1) The system of dual nomenclature requiring discrete terminologies for the superpositional and ...

Questions regarding heterogeneity and architecture of reefal carbonate platform systems may be resolved by well-constrained chronostratigraphic frameworks, developed from the integration of multiple independent signals in the rock record.

The contribution of fossils to chronostratigraphy, 150 years after Albert Oppel
The 150th anniversary of the death of Albert Oppel (1831–65) provided the opportunity to celebrate this outstanding stratigrapher with a Thematic Issue dedicated to the importance of fossils for dating and correlating of sedimentary rocks. In this issue,

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 ...

OSL chronostratigraphy for loess deposits from Tyszowce – Poland
The presented work concerns a loess profile located in Tyszowce, in the eastern part of Poland on the Volyn Upland, close to the Ukrainian border. The investigated loess formation is well preserved and is characterised by clear stratigraphic units ...

Phanerozoic Chronostratigraphy: Top-Down Instead of Bottom-Up Boundary Definitions
The GSSP method defines stage bases, and, where proximate, equates them to the bases of larger chronostratigraphic units. The Phanerozoic and its subdivisions above the stage level thus are only successively larger “pigeonholes” within which to bin ...

After a short-lived »ban«, the Quaternary has again been formalized as a chronostratigraphic unit, consisting of the Pleistocene and the Holocene.

Review and revision of Cenozoic tropical planktonic foraminiferal biostratigraphy and calibration to the Geomagnetic Polarity and Astronomical Time Scale [PDF]
Planktonic foraminifera are widely utilized for the biostratigraphy of Cretaceous and Cenozoic marine sediments and are a fundamental component of Cenozoic chronostratigraphy.
