Astronomical control on upper ordovician – lower silurian organic matter enrichment in South China
Astronomical forcing governed Late Ordovician–Early Silurian climate dynamics, yet high-resolution Astronomical Time Scales (ATS) and organic enrichment mechanisms during the end-Ordovician extinction remain poorly constrained.

Biostratigraphy of Acritarchs and Chitinozoans in Ordovician Strata from the Fazel Abad Area, Southeastern Caspian Sea, Alborz Mountains, Northern Iran: Stratigraphic Implications [PDF]
Sixty-four surface samples from the Lower Palaeozoic rock units (mainly Lalun,Abastu and Abarsaj formations) near Kholin-Darreh village in the Fazel Abad area,southeastern the Caspian Sea, Northern Iran, were analyzed to determine their agerelationships.

An Edgewood-type Hirnantian fauna from the Mackenzie Mountains, northwestern margin of Laurentia
AbstractSilicified brachiopods from Hirnantian strata in three sections of the lower Whittaker Formation, Mackenzie Mountains, northwestern Canada, yielded a moderately diverse, Edgewood-type Hirnantian fauna, consisting of 13 species: Biparetis paucirugosus, Brevilamnulella laevis, Dalmanella edgewoodensis, Drabovia noixella, Eospirigerina putilla ...
