Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

LATE-MIOCENE MOLDAVIAN PETRIFIED FOREST

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Romaniae, 2022
A collection of petrified wood, hosted by the Natural Sciences Section of the Museum “Vasile Pârvan” from Bârlad, was submitted to a palaeoxylotomical study. The samples come from the central part of Moldova, Northward of Bârlad, and were collected from Simila gravel-quarry, from fluvial-deltaic sediments of Maeotian age, most probably representing ...

Provenance Shifts During Neogene Brahmaputra Delta Progradation Tied to Coupled Climate and Tectonic Change in the Eastern Himalaya

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
The Bengal Basin preserves the erosional signals of coupled tectonic‐climatic change during late Cenozoic development of the Himalayan orogen, yet regional correlation and interpretation of these signals remains incomplete.

Upper Oligocene–Lower Miocene Gangdese Conglomerate Along the Yarlung-Zangbo Suture Zone and its Implications for Palaeo-Yarlung-Zangbo Initiation

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The upper Oligocene–lower Miocene Gangdese conglomerate is deposited along the Yarlung-Zangbo suture zone, which extends 1,500 km from west to east and is located in the core area of the India–Eurasia plate collision zone.

Late Miocene Carnivora from Chad: Lutrinae (Mustelidae) [PDF]

open access: yesZoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008
We describe extensive Late Miocene fossil Lutrinae from Toros-Menalla, Chad. A minimum of four species are present in this fossiliferous area. Such a large number of species, diverse in size and dental morphology, is significant and unique in the fossil record of the subfamily Lutrinae in the Neogene of Africa. Two new taxa are described, Sivaonyx beyi

A singular Hegetotheriinae (Notoungulata, Typotheria) from the late Oligocene-Early Miocene of the Subandean Region of Bolivia

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology, 2021
Geological studies in the northern sector of the Chaco foreland Basin, Bolivia, yielded new fossils coming from late Oligocene-late Miocene of the Petaca Formation. Few fossil mammals were known from the Subandean Region of Bolivia. We report a partially

Late Miocene hominoid from Niger

open access: yesComptes Rendus Palevol, 2009
Abstract African Late Miocene hominoids are rare, having been reported from six localities in Kenya, Ethiopia and Chad ranging in age from 10.5 to 5.5 Ma. We here report the occurrence of a hominoid in Niger associated with a vertebrate fauna which indicates an age of between 11–5 Ma.

The turnover of continental planktonic diatoms near the middle/late Miocene boundary and their Cenozoic evolution. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Fossil evidence indicates that modern assemblages of temperate nonmarine planktonic diatoms began near the middle/late Miocene boundary when the genus Actinocyclus, an important constituent of lacustrine planktonic diatom assemblages during the early to ...
