On the peritidal cycles and their diagenetic evolution in the Lower Jurassic carbonates of the Calcare Massiccio Formation (Central Apennines)

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2015
This paper shows the environmental changes and high-frequency cyclicity recorded by Lower Jurassic shallow-water carbonates known as the Calcare Massiccio Formation which crop out in the central Apennines of Italy.

Climate conditions on the South‐Iberian Palaeomargin during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian: A mineralogical and geochemical study from hemipelagic deposits

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1631-1663, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The integrated analysis of lithofacies, mineralogy and geochemistry of the hemipelagic marine succession exposed in La Cerradura section (South‐Iberian Palaeomargin) provides new information to characterise the palaeoenvironmental conditions during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian, including the Jenkyns Event.

Establishment of an Astronomical Time Scale and Discussion on the Sedimentary Origin of the Member 4 Glutenite, Paleogene Wenchang Formation, Enping 21 Sag, Zhu III Depression, Pearl River Mouth Basin, South China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Coarse-grained clastic systems in rift basins are often considered unfavorable for preserving continuous astronomical records. This study investigates the thick conglomeratic succession in the upper Member 4 (43.90–44.73 Ma) of the Wenchang Formation in ...

Nonmarine time-stratigraphy in a rift setting: An example from the Mid-Permian lower Quanzijie low-order cycle Bogda Mountains, NW China

open access: yesJournal of Palaeogeography, 2015
Sedimentological and stratigraphic studies of seven stratigraphic sections of Permian Hongyanchi (HYC) and Quanzijie (QZJ) low-order cycles (LCs) in the Tarlong-Taodonggou half graben and Dalongkou area in Bogda Mountains, NW China, demonstrate effective

REPRODUCIBILITY IN CYCLOSTRATIGRAPHY: INITIATING AN INTERCOMPARISON PROJECT

open access: yesGeological Society of America Abstracts with Programs, 2017
The study of astronomical climate forcing and the application of cyclostratigraphy have experienced a spectacular growth over the last decades. In the field of cyclostratigraphy a broad range in methodological approaches exist. However, comparative study between the different approaches is lacking.

Search for impact ejecta at the Paleocene–Eocene boundary

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1585-1592, July 2026.
Abstract Almost 10 years have passed since microtektites and microkrystites were reported for the Paleocene–Eocene (P–E) boundary in drill cores and outcrop in New Jersey and in ODP Hole 1051B in the western North Atlantic. The glassy spherules were interpreted to reflect an impact trigger for the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM).

Toward a Robust Plio‐Pleistocene Chronostratigraphy for ODP Site 762

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
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 ...

The Wunstorf Drilling Project: Coring a Global Stratigraphic Reference Section of the Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Drilling, 2007
The Wunstorf drilling project aims at establishing a high resolution stable isotope record for the black shale succession (OAE 2) of the CTBI and developing this into a globally applicable high resolutionbio- and chemostratigraphic reference section ...

Late Eocene to Early Oligocene (36–26 Ma) Rock Magnetism and Magnetostratigraphy of IODP Site U1553, Southwestern Pacific: Defying the Challenges of Carbonate Dilution and Reductive Diagenesis

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The late Eocene to early Oligocene is an intriguing Paleogene period in which the Earth climate state changed from Warmhouse to Coolhouse. Accurate age models are essential for investigating these climate transitions. The southwestern Pacific International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Site U1553, with its almost complete succession of the ...

The Cyclostratigraphy Intercomparison Project (CIP)

open access: yesEarth-Science Reviews, 2019
Cyclostratigraphy is an important tool for understanding astronomical climate forcing and reading geological time in sedimentary sequences, provided that an imprint of insolation variations caused by Earth's orbital eccentricity, obliquity and/or precession is preserved (Milankovitch forcing).
