Response to Comment on “An early Miocene extinction in pelagic sharks” [PDF]
Science, 2021 Naylor et al . argue that the existence of multiple denticle types within a single species precludes the use of this metric as a measure of the decline of multiple shark species. We show that species-level shark diversity would have to decrease by >90% to account for the observed >70% denticle extinction ...

Thermal history of the early Miocene Waitemata Basin and adjacent Waipapa Group, North Island, New Zealand [PDF]
, 1999 Apatite fission track (AFT) and vitrinite reflectance (VR) data for early Miocene outcrops from the Waitemata Basin reveal that the basin sequence was subjected to shallow burial before denudation.

The relative roles of CO2 and palaeogeography in determining Late Miocene climate: results from a terrestrial model-data comparison [PDF]
, 2012 The Late Miocene (∼11.6–5.3 Ma) palaeorecord provides evidence for a warmer and wetter climate than that of today and there is uncertainty in the palaeo-CO2 record of at least 150 ppmv.

Fluvial palaeoenvironments in the intracratonic Amazonas Basin (Early Miocene-early Middle Miocene, Colombia) [PDF]
Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 1994 Abstract Based on a detailed study of Early Miocene to early Middle Miocene sediments in the Caqueta River area (Amazonas Basin, Colombia), a reconstruction of the palaeoenvironmental and palaeogeographical history is made. Sediment composition, sedimentary sequences and transport directions indicate that the succession was deposited by a low ...

Coupled productivity and carbon isotope records in the southwest Pacific Ocean during the late Miocene–early Pliocene biogenic bloom [PDF]
, 2002 Biogenic components of sediment accumulated at high rates beneath frontal zones of the Indian and Pacific oceans during the late Miocene and early Pliocene. The δ13C of bulk and foraminiferal carbonate also decreased during this time interval.

Decapod crustacean from the Qom Formation (Lower Miocene) of the Isfahan area, Central Iran [PDF]
Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology ResearchesThe discovery of a new specimen of Portunus withersi (Glaessner 1933) from the Lower Miocene Qom Formation in the Vartun section, north of Isfahan (Central Iran), contributes to our knowledge of this portunid species, to which most fossil portunids found
