A Paleotectonic Atlas of the African Plate: Permian to Recent

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 231-279, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The fragmentary release of petroleum data defining the deep structure and stratigraphy of African basins has been integrated with existing literature to compile 19 tectonic maps over key geological intervals from Permian to Recent times. African plate margins range in their age of opening from Late Triassic (off Lebanon), through Early/Middle ...

Carbonate microfacies and transgressive‐regressive sequences of Oxfordian shallow‐water limestones (Korallenoolith, Lower Saxony Basin)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 1084-1106, September 2025.
The Bisperode section is one of the most expanded and complete sections with shallow‐marine Oxfordian strata in the LSB. This study provides a reference record for shallow‐marine settings and allows for the correlation of the strata from the LSB with Oxfordian deposits distributed elsewhere in the world.

Trace elements, rare earth elements and isotopes of poorly preserved fossils from lower Cretaceous carbonates (Eastern Black Sea): Implications for early diagenetic alteration

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 1107-1131, September 2025.
Analysing Rare Earth Elements (REEs) and other trace elements together with stable isotope data in poorly preserved belemnites can provide valuable insights into early diagenetic pathways, water‐interaction processes, and even potential redox conditions.

On the occurrence of Vinctifer ferrusquiai sp. nov. (Actinopterygii, Aspidorhynchiformes) in the Kimmeridgian (Late Jurassic) deposits near Tlaxiaco, Oaxaca, southern Mexico

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
Vinctifer ferrusquiai sp. nov. is described in this paper. This aspidorhynchid fish was found in Kimmeridgian marine deposits of the Sabinal Formation, exposed in the Llano Yosobé, near Tlaxiaco, Oaxaca, Mexico. The single specimen of this species shows

Deformation and Sediment Provenance of the Forearc Basin in the Central Andes of Southern Peru

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The linkages between the development of the forearc regions and the accompanying retroarc in contractional mountain belts remain unclear. In the central Andes of southern Peru, new results constrain the timing of deformation and the provenance of forearc basin fill during Cenozoic mountain building.

Kastamonina abanica n.gen., n.sp., a Complex Lituolid (Foraminiferida) from the Upper Jurassic Limestone of the Kastamonu Area (North Turkey)

open access: yesGeologia Croatica, 2010
Kastamonina abanica n.gen., n.sp., is a new complex conical lituolid foraminifer occurring in Upper Jurassic (Kimmeridgian-Portlandian) shallow marine deposits in the Kastamonu region of Northern Turkey.

The origins of neural spine elongation in iguanodontian dinosaurs and the osteology of a new sail‐back styracosternan (Dinosauria, Ornithischia) from the Lower Cretaceous Wealden Group of England

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Abstract The Wealden Group of southern England was deposited during the late Berriasian to early Aptian interval. It records a critical time in the development of iguanodontian dinosaur diversity, which increased from low levels during the Jurassic to higher levels in the Aptian and Albian. A new iguanodontian dinosaur, Istiorachis macarthurae gen.

Kinematics and Age of the Orogen‐Perpendicular Shkoder‐Peja Normal Fault in North Albania Constrained by Fault‐Slip Data, Raman Spectroscopy and K‐Ar Fault‐Gouge Dating

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The Shkoder‐Peja Normal Fault (SPNF) is the largest orogen‐perpendicular fault on the Balkan Peninsula, separating the Dinarides fold‐and‐thrust belt in the north from the Hellenides in the south. It has accommodated orogen‐parallel extension during clockwise oroclinal bending of the Hellenic segment and juxtaposes Adriatic shelf successions ...

Impacts of Pre‐Existing Structural Fabrics on Fault Growth and Evolution During Multi‐Phase Rifting: Case Study From the Central Browse Basin, North West Shelf of Australia

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 37, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
This study examines the development of fault patterns in a multi‐phase rift system and demonstrates how pre‐existing faults influence the geometries and distribution of subsequent fault systems. ABSTRACT In multi‐phase rifts, pre‐existing structural fabrics that are formed during earlier rifting stages can influence fault growth during later ...
