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.

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.

Response of a marine-terminating Greenland outlet glacier to abrupt cooling 8200 and 9300 years ago [PDF]

, 2011
Long-term records of Greenland outlet-glacier change extending beyond the satellite era can inform future predictions of Greenland Ice Sheet behavior. Of particular relevance is elucidating the Greenland Ice Sheet's response to decadal- and centennial ...

Le Gargasien de Gargas (Vaucluse, SE de la France) : synthèse des données de terrain et révision de la microfaune de foraminifères et d'ostracodes [The Gargasian of Gargas (Vaucluse, SE France): Synthesis of field data and revision of the foraminiferal and ostracodal microfauna]

Carnets de Géologie, 2009
Because of urbanization the section at Gargas, historical stratotype of the Aptian stage and of the Gargasian substage, is no longer accessible. However, samples taken there in 1966 by one of us make feasible a reinterpretation of this series in the ...

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

Associations et biostratigraphie des Foraminifères benthiques et planctoniques du Bédoulien sommital et du Gargasien inférieur de La Tuilière - St-Saturnin-lès-Apt (aire stratotypique de l'Aptien, Vaucluse, SE France) [Planktonic and benthic foraminiferal assemblages and biostratigraphy of the uppermost Bedoulian and lower Gargasian of La Tuilière - St-Saturnin-lès-Apt (area of the Aptian stratotype, Vaucluse, SE France)]

Carnets de Géologie, 2008
Faisant suite aux recherches sur le Bédoulien et le Gargasien du secteur de Cassis-La Bédoule (B. du Rh., SE France), l'étude de quatre coupes en relais dans l'aire stratotypique de l'Aptien, situées dans le secteur du Hameau de la Tuilière (commune de ...

The Case for the Anthropocene Epoch Is Stronger Than the Case for the Holocene Epoch

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract The recommendation that the Anthropocene be denoted as a geological epoch was recently rejected by the International Union of Geological Sciences. Here, we compare the scientific rationales presented for the Anthropocene, the Holocene and the six other epochs in the Cenozoic Era: the Pleistocene, the Pliocene, the Miocene, the Oligocene, the ...

South American Great Basin: Limnogeological analysis of the Salina del Bebedero Basin, Argentina (Late Pleistocene‐recent)

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 739-763, April 2025.
. The Bebedero tectonic depression in San Luis province, Argentina, is a closed drainage basin that has formed as a result of block‐faulting and rifting processes. The Bebedero lake exhibits notable similarities to the endorheic watersheds of the western United States, particularly those of Death Valley, the Saline Valley and, to a lesser extent, the ...

Would Adding the Anthropocene to the Geologic Time Scale Matter?

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Abrupt planetary change forced by the cumulative and overwhelming impacts of human activities in the mid‐twentieth century supports a new geologic epoch, named after Anthropos, the agent of this change. This transformation extends well beyond Holocene norms and is identified in geologic records worldwide.
