High resolution carbon isotope stratigraphy of the basal Silurian stratotype (Dob's Linn, Scotland) and its global correlation [PDF]
Since its designation as the Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the base of the Silurian System, the choice of Dob's Linn, Southern Scotland, has received criticism due to the difficulties of relating its well constrained graptolite ...

The position of graptolites within Lower Palaeozoic planktic ecosystems. [PDF]
An integrated approach has been used to assess the palaeoecology of graptolites both as a discrete group and also as a part of the biota present within Ordovician and Silurian planktic realms.

The Silurian Section of the Valle syncline (Sierra Norte de Sevilla UNESCO Global Geopark, Spain) as an International Standard for Graptolite Biostratigraphy [PDF]
The Paleozoic succession of the Sierra Norte de Sevilla UNESCO Global Geopark (Ossa Morena Zone of the Iberian Massif, SW Spain) includes a nearly complete Silurian succession, ca. 150 m thick, deposited in an outer shelf setting. In the core part of the

Silurian graptolite biostratigraphy of the Röstånga-1 drill core, Scania:a standard for southern Scandinavia [PDF]
The Rostanga-1 core from west-central Scania provides the most complete succession of the Sandbian (Upper Ordovician) through lower Telychian (Silurian, Llandovery) strata of southern Scandinavia. The Hirnantian is identified in the Kallholn Formation by

New Ludlovian, upper Silurian, graptolite faunas from the Los Espejos Formation, Central Precordillera, San Juan Province, Argentina: correlations and biostratigraphic remarks [PDF]
Graptolites represent one of the most important index fossils for the lower to middle Paleozoic biostratigraphy worldwide. Compared to other regions, graptolite faunas exhibited a marked decrease in diversity in Argentina during the Silurian, what ...

Lower Wenlock black shales in the northern Holy Cross Mountains, Poland: Sedimentary and geochemical controls on the Ireviken Event in a deep marine setting [PDF]
The stratigraphic variability and geochemistry of Llandovery/Wenlock (L/W) Series boundary sediments in Poland reveals that hemipelagic sedimentation under an anoxic/euxinic water column was interrupted by low density bottom currents or detached diluted ...
