Geology as a "local" science [PDF]

, 2010
Entendre i descriure la història de la Terra és un dels objectius finals de la geologia. La part de la geologia anomenada estratigrafia ha treballat sempre, i ho continua fent, buscant els llocs adients per a definir el millor coneixement que tenim de ...

The Anthropocene monument:on relating geological and human time [PDF]

, 2017
In the Parthenon frieze, the time of mortals and the time of gods seem to merge. Dipesh Chakrabarty has argued that with the advent of the Anthropocene the times of human history and of the Earth are similarly coming together.

1.38 Ga Four‐Layer Tuff Marker Horizon in North China black Shales as a Chronostratigraphic Boundary for the Pre‐Ediacaran Geological Timescale

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 17, 16 September 2025.
Abstract Boundaries in the Phanerozoic chronostratigraphic scale are mainly precisely defined and dated, and many correspond to environmental catastrophes induced by the emplacement of LIPs. The pre‐Ediacaran geological timescale is currently subdivided by approximate absolute ages.

High-resolution integrated stratigraphy of the upper Burdigalian-lower Langhian in the Mediterranean: the Langhian historical stratotype and new candidate sections for defining its GSSP

Stratigraphy, 2011
Results of high-resolution integrated stratigraphic studies (calcareous plankton and magnetostratigraphy) of three Mediterranean sections (La Vedova in Central Italy, Contrada Pesciarello in Sicily and St. Peter’s Pool in Malta) and one deep-sea core from the mid-latitude North Atlantic (DSDP Hole 608) are here synthesized. They are compared with those

Mining an Anthropocene in Japan: On the making and work of geological imaginaries

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 50, Issue 3, September 2025.
Short Abstract This article addresses how the lithic and the drift might be reworked as an Anthropocene material outside of a chronostratigraphy. Revisiting the finding of a floating fern fossil at the Hashima mine, we delve into a complex array of Geological imaginaries, and undertake our own speculative work.

Carboniferous–Permian Boundary in Kansas, Midcontinent, U.S.A. [PDF]

, 2006
The placement of the Carboniferous (Pennsylvanian)-Permian boundary in Kansas has been debated since the rocks of this age were first described and named. With the ratification of the Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the base of the Permian

Developments in Permafrost Science and Engineering in Response to Climate Warming in Circumpolar and High Mountain Regions, 2019–2024

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 167-188, April/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Research in geocryology is currently principally concerned with the effects of climate change on permafrost terrain. The motivations for most of the research are (1) quantification of the anticipated net emissions of CO2 and CH4 from warming and thaw of near‐surface permafrost and (2) mitigation of effects on infrastructure of such warming and

Redefinition of the Ilerdian Stage (early Eocene) [PDF]

, 2009
The Ilerdian Stage was created by Hottinger and Schaub in 1960 to accommodate a significant phase in the evolution of larger foraminifera not recorded in the northern European basins, and has since been adopted by most researchers working on shallow ...
