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

Early Cretaceous absolute geomagnetic paleointensities from Córdoba province (Argentina) [PDF]
We present here new paleointensity and geochronology results from Early Cretaceous volcanic rocks of Sierra Chica de Cordoba (Argentina). The new K-Ar isotopic ages of 5 samples range from 136 to 122 Ma.

Foraminiferal morphogroups of the Early–Middle Cretaceous succession in northeastern Rafsanjan and their significance as palaeoenvironmental bioindicators [PDF]
Foraminiferal morphogroups reveal their responses to palaeoenvironmental and palaeoecological changes. The foraminiferal morphogroups of the early-mid Cretaceous in northeastern Rafsanjan have been investigated with an interest in palaeoenvironmental ...

Gyrochorte “highways” and their environmental significance in shallow-marine sediments [PDF]
The reworking of a trace by a subsequently following organism represents a so-called sequorichnial behavior and leads to formation of a “burrowing highway”. Burrowing highways occur more frequently than assumed in the fossil record.

Pararhabdodon Isonensis and Tsintaosaurus Spinorhinus: A New Clade of Lambeosaurine Hadrosaurids from Eurasia [PDF]
We present new anatomical information showing that Koutalisaurus kohlerorum, from the Maastrichtian of Lleida Province, northeastern Spain, is most probably the junior synonym of Pararhabdodon isonensis from the same region.

Response and Recovery of the Comanche Carbonate Platform Surrounding Multiple Cretaceous Oceanic Anoxic Events, Northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
The ubiquity of carbonate platforms throughout the Cretaceous Period is recognized as a product of high eustatic sea-level and a distinct climatic optimum induced by rapid sea-floor spreading and elevated levels of atmospheric carbon-dioxide.
