Tectonic evolution of the southern part of Central Viet Nam and the adjacent area
Interpretations of seismic, gravity and magnetic anomalies and structural data on the coastal zone of southern part of Central Viet Nam (SCVN) and the adjacent Tertiary basins suggest several phases in the tectonic evolution of the study region since the

Late Cenozoic Cooling History of the Xigaze Fore-Arc Basin along the Yarlung–Zangbo Suture Zone (Southern Tibet): New Insights from Low-Temperature Thermochronology [PDF]
The Tibetan Plateau is currently the widest and highest elevation orogenic plateau on Earth. It formed as a response to the Cenozoic and is still ongoing collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates.

Gomphotheres existed in the Siwaliks from the middle Miocene (14.2Ma) to the middle Pleistocene (0.8Ma) and became extinct later on. In this paper, we tried to discuss the reasons of such extinction of gomphotheres in the lower Pleistocene time span by ...

A revision of the fossil genus Miocepphus and other Miocene Alcidae (Aves: Charadriiformes) of the Western North Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
This study reviews and describes all known fossils of Alcidae from the Miocene of the western North Atlantic. Because the majority of alcid fossils recovered from Miocene sediments are allied with the genus Miocepphus Wetmore, 1940, the genus is revised ...

Late miocene magnetobiostratigraphy of Crete
Six Upper Miocene marine clay sections on Crete (Greece) have been subjected to a detailed magnetobiostratigraphic analysis. Six correlatable polarity zones are recognized and these demonstrate the regional synchrony of planktonic foraminiferal biohorizons.

Coupled productivity and carbon isotope records in the southwest Pacific Ocean during the late Miocene–early Pliocene biogenic bloom [PDF]
Biogenic components of sediment accumulated at high rates beneath frontal zones of the Indian and Pacific oceans during the late Miocene and early Pliocene. The δ13C of bulk and foraminiferal carbonate also decreased during this time interval.
