Evidence of Quaternary tectonics along Río Grande valley, southern Malargüe fold and thrust belt, Mendoza, Argentina [PDF]
The Malargüe fold and thrust belt is developed in the Argentinian Andes between 34° and 37° S, through the tectonic inversion of Upper Triassic and Lower Jurassic depocenters of the Neuquén Basin, with an uplift history since the Cretaceous.

Cenozoic evolution of the eastern Black Sea: a test of depth-dependent stretching models [PDF]
Subsidence analysis of the eastern Black Sea basin suggests that the stratigraphy of this deep, extensional basin can be explained by a predominantly pure-shear stretching history.

Tip dating supports novel resolutions of controversial relationships among early mammals [PDF]
The estimation of the timing of major divergences in early mammal evolution is challenging due to conflicting interpretations of key fossil taxa. One contentious group is Haramiyida, the earliest members of which are from the Late Triassic.

Late Mesozoic marine Antarctic fishes: future perspectives based on the newly collections recovered in the Ameghino and López de Bertodano Formations [PDF]
Nowadays, notothenioids are the teleostean group that dominates marine Antarctic waters. However, during the Mesozoic a diverse ichthyofauna inhabited the sea that surrounded Antarctic.

Textural and Lithologic Differences of Cretaceous, Tertiary, and Quaternary Gravels of South Arkansas [PDF]
Stream gravels have been derived from the Ouachita Mountains since at least Cretaceous times. Past studies have assigned ages to gravel deposits in the basins of the Saline and Little Missouri Rivers on the basis of altitude above local floodplains. This
