Arc polarity reversal in North Luzon preserved in the Oligocene–Miocene clastic units in southwestern Mountain Province, Philippines: insights from trace element geochemistry, microfossil ages, and zircon U–Pb dating

open access: yesGeoscience Letters
Provenance studies using sedimentary geochemistry, particularly whole-rock, trace element, and rare earth element (REE) analyses, have proven useful in complex terranes such as the Philippines.

Fossil Cenozoic crassatelline bivalves from Peru: New species and generic insights [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2016
Discoveries of new fossil Cenozoic crassatellines in Peru provide a new phylogenetic perspective on “large” Neogene genera, in which four lineages are considered to have arisen independently from different Paleogene Crassatella ancestors.

DISTRIBUTION AND ECOLOGY OF CATAPSYDRAX INDIANUS, A NEW PLANKTONIC FORAMINIFER INDEX SPECIES FOR THE LATE OLIGOCENE-EARLY MIOCENE [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Foraminiferal Research, 2009
The Oligocene–Miocene transition is characterized by a low degree of biotic turnover (extinction plus origination) in many microfossil groups and especially in planktonic foraminifera. Few species appear, evolve, and disappear across this boundary, and the existence of transitional forms between key species makes biostratigraphic resolution of the ...
