CONODONTS FROM THE WA’ERGANG SECTION, CHINA, A POTENTIAL GSSP FOR THE UPPERMOST STAGE OF THE CAMBRIAN

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2017
Furongian (upper Cambrian) conodonts from the Shenjiawan Formation, Wa’ergang section, Taoyuan County, Hunan Province, South China are described. The Wa’ergang section has been proposed as a potential GSSP for the base of the uppermost stage of the ...

Weathering of the Emeishan Large Igneous Province Enhanced the Nutrient Flux to the Oceans and Led to Late Permian Climate Cooling

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Mafic continental large igneous provinces (LIPs) erupted rapidly and may have overwhelmed Earth's atmospheric and biospheric systems. However, the exact balance and interplay between short‐term climate warming caused by CO2 emissions and long‐term cooling due to LIP weathering remains poorly understood.

Subduction Initiation Volcanism Leading to Development of the Talkeetna Arc, Lower Shuyak Formation, Kodiak Archipelago, Alaska

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Our understanding of subduction initiation remains limited by the difficulty of making direct observations of geologically recent examples. In the geologic record, supra‐subduction zone ophiolites are often interpreted to record syn‐initiation slab rollback and upper plate extension. Unfortunately, many ophiolites are decoupled from records of

The lower jaw of Devonian ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii): Anatomy, relationships, and functional morphology

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 3, Page 550-602, March 2026.
Abstract Actinopterygii is a major extant vertebrate group, but limited data are available for its earliest members. Here we investigate the morphology of Devonian actinopterygians, focusing on the lower jaw. We use X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to provide comprehensive descriptions of the mandibles of 19 species, which span the whole of the Devonian

The importance of Hindeodus parvus (Conodonta) for the definition of the Permian-Triassic boundary and evaluation of the proposed sections for a global stratotype section and point (GSSP) for the base of the Triassic

open access: yesGeologija, 1995
The biostratigraphic Permian/Triassic (P/T) boundary is defined by the first appearance of H. parvus. The first appearance of H. parvus within the dine H. latidentatus-H.

Composition and significance of the Katian (Upper Ordovician) conodont fauna of the Vaux Limestone (‘Calcaire des Vaux’) in Normandy, France [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014
Study of new conodont collections from the Vaux Limestone exposed at its classical locality at Saint-Hilaire-la-Gérard in the Sées syncline, the conodont fauna of which was previously described in a preliminary way by Weyant et al.

New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025 (NZGT 2025) is the first comprehensive update and revision of the New Zealand Geological Timescale in a decade. The criteria used to establish age ranges of New Zealand Stages within the NZGT have been reviewed, calibrated, and revised where required against the 2023/04 International Chronostratigraphic Chart and ...

NEW DATA ON MIDDLE DEVONIAN CONODONTS FROM SW-SARDINIA:THE SU NUARGI II SECTION REVISITED

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2013
The conodont collection from the nodular limestone beds of the Su Nuargi II outcrop near Domusnovas in SW-Sardinia (Italy) is restudied for the purpose of reassessing the outcrop and updating the conodont collection to the most recent taxonomy. Su Nuargi

And then there were none: decrease of origination and the decline of Conulariida

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Although the evolutionary history of conulariids has been widely studied, previous works have focused mostly on limited time intervals. In this paper, we examine the diversity dynamics of the group throughout its entire history, using various mathematical approaches.

Inferring Cenozoic Cover Thickness and Bedrock Sedimentary Material in 3D From Geophysical Data Using Machine Learning Algorithms: A Case Study in the Lockington Region, Victoria, Australia

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract This study presents a supervised machine learning approach to constructing a 3D geological model for the Lockington area in Victoria, Australia, by integrating borehole observations, geophysical surveys (magnetic, gravity, and radiometric), and elevation data.
