New insight into the Pleistocene deposits of Monte delle Piche, Rome, and remarks on the biochronology of Hippopotamus (Mammalia, Hippopotamidae) and Stephanorhinus etruscus (Mammalia, Rhinocerotidae) in Italy [PDF]
Several large mammal assemblages have been collected in the Roman basin since the XIX century, but they usually lack any stratigraphic datum or details about the fossiliferous localities. In this work, the stratigraphic provenance of large mammal remains

Lithostratigraphy and Microbiostratigraphy of the Ruteh Formation in Northwest of Khur, Central Alborz, Iran [PDF]
A sequence of Permian rocks crops out in Northwest of Khur in Central Alborz, North of Iran. This sequence consists of the Dorud (Asselian-Sakmarian), Ruteh (Artinskian-Murgabian) and Nesen (Early Djulfian) formations.

Chronology for climate change: Developing age models for the biogeochemical ocean flux study cores [PDF]
We construct age models for a suite of cores from the northeast Atlantic Ocean by means of accelerator mass spectrometer dating of a key core, BOFS 5K, and correlation with the rest of the suite.

Catalogue of the Hantken collection: carbonate microfacies photographs from 1872-82 [PDF]
Maximilian Hantken (1821-1893), founding professor of the Department of Palaeontology at Budapest University, was a pioneer in stratigraphic micropalaeontological studies.

The Galala Mountains in Egypt provide an excellent platform-basin transect with deposits spanning the Paleocene/ Eocene (P/E) boundary. These interfingering deposits enable a recalibration between platform and open marine biostratigraphic schemes.

Foraminifera from the Tepetate Formation (Heim) at Las Pocitas, Baja California Sur, Mexico
In order to constrain the age and depositional paleoenvironment of the Tepetate Formation, benthic and planktonic foraminifera were analyzed in samples recovered from an exploration well located at Las Pocitas, Baja California Sur, Mexico.

Calcium isotopic composition of high-latitude proxy carrier Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (sin.) [PDF]
The accurate reconstruction of sea surface temperature (SST) history in climate-sensitive regions (e.g. tropical and polar oceans) became a challenging task in palaeoceanographic research.

A late Holocene sea-level curve for the east coast of South Africa
South Africa’s extensive and topographically diverse coastline lends itself to interpreting and understanding sea-level fluctuations through a range of geomorphological and biological proxies.

Remarks on the type locality and current status of the foraminiferal species Rzehakina epigona (Rzehak, 1895) [PDF]
A likely topotype locality is proposed for Rzehakina epigona. As the type specimen of Silicina epigona Rzehak, 1895 is assumed to be lost, we undertook a search for new material in the type area, Zdounky village in Moravia. A single locality provided a

Representing Zooplankters: An Example from the Foraminifera
Because of their excellent preservation record, testate zooplankters provide valuable proxy ocean climate data through the Quaternary–Recent. Commonly, specimen abundances are sought, which are time-consuming to collect manually and require taxonomic ...
