Initial results of coring at Prees, Cheshire Basin, UK (ICDP JET project): towards an integrated stratigraphy, timescale, and Earth system understanding for the Early Jurassic [PDF]

Scientific Drilling, 2023
Drilling for the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) Early Jurassic Earth System and Timescale project (JET) was undertaken between October 2020 and January 2021. The drill site is situated in a small-scale synformal basin of the

Ophiolitic detritus in Kimmeridgian resedimented limestones and its provenance from an eroded obducted ophiolitic nappe stack south of the Northern Calcareous Alps (Austria)

Geologica Carpathica, 2015
The causes for the Middle to Late Jurassic tectonic processes in the Northern Calcareous Alps are still controversially discussed. There are several contrasting models for these processes, formerly designated “Jurassic gravitational tectonics”.

A taxonomic review of the Late Jurassic eucryptodiran turtles from the Jura Mountains (Switzerland and France) [PDF]

PeerJ, 2014
Background. Eucryptodiran turtles from the Late Jurassic (mainly Kimmeridgian) deposits of the Jura Mountains (Switzerland and France) are among the earliest named species traditionally referred to the Plesiochelyidae, Thalassemydidae, and Eurysternidae.

Jurassic sedimentary evolution of southern Junggar Basin: Implication for palaeoclimate changes in northern Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China

Journal of Palaeogeography, 2014
Junggar Basin, located in northern Xinjiang, presents continuous and multikilometer-thick strata of the Jurassic deposits. The Jurassic was entirely terrestrial fluvial and lacustrine deltaic sedimentation.

Tectonostratigraphic evolution of the Slyne Basin [PDF]

Solid Earth, 2022
The Slyne Basin, located offshore NW Ireland, is a narrow and elongated basin composed of a series of interconnected grabens and half-grabens, separated by transfer zones coincident with deep crustal structures formed during the Silurian- to Devonian ...

Broad-Scale Patterns of Late Jurassic Dinosaur Paleoecology

PLoS ONE, 2010
There have been numerous studies on dinosaur biogeographic distribution patterns. However, these distribution data have not yet been applied to ecological questions. Ecological studies of dinosaurs have tended to focus on reconstructing individual taxa, usually through comparisons to modern analogs.

The Jurassic of Denmark and Greenland: Triassic and Jurassic transtension along part of the Sorgenfrei–Tornquist Zone in the Danish Kattegat [PDF]

Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2003
In the Kattegat area, Denmark, the Sorgenfrei–Tornquist Zone, an old crustal weakness zone, was repeatedly reactivated during Triassic, Jurassic and Early Cretaceous times with dextral transtensional movements along the major boundary faults.

Pangean (Late Carboniferous–Middle Jurassic) paleoenvironment and lithofacies

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2000
Abstract Six time interval maps were constructed that depict the plate tectonic configuration, paleogeography and lithofacies for Pangea from the Late Carboniferous through the Middle Jurassic. Generally, the individual maps illustrate the conditions present during the maximum marine transgressions of higher frequency cyclicity within the Absaroka ...

Late Jurassic fishes from Longing Gap, Antarctic Peninsula

Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2004
Abstract Few records of Late Jurassic fishes have been reported previously from Antarctica. They include an indeterminate teleost from the Ameghino (Nordenskjold) Formation at Longing Gap and two incomplete aspidorhynchiforms from James Ross Island, all of presumed Late Jurassic age. New fish material recently recovered in the Upper Jurassic of Longing

A Piranha-like Pycnodontiform Fish from the Late Jurassic [PDF]

Current Biology, 2018
Pycnodontiformes are an extinct order of ray-finned fishes from the Triassic to Eocene [1, 2], with a characteristic crushing dentition reflecting a highly specialized diet [3]. However, our discovery of a new pycnodontiform from the Late Jurassic (ca.
