The Messinian Salinity Crisis

open access: yes, 2016
During the late Miocene, the Mediterranean developed into a hypersaline basin wherein ultimately gypsum and halite precipitated. Little is known about the evolution of the Paratethys Sea, which was situated northeast of the Mediterranean. The results described in this thesis provide valuable new insights in the late Miocene evolution of the Paratethys ...

Exploration for Gas Generation Potential and Geochemical Signatures of Neogene Clastic Deposits from Gavdos Island, Greece, Eastern Mediterranean

open access: yesGeosciences
The latest exploration developments and discoveries from the eastern Mediterranean documented that Neogene formations can act as source-rocks for hydrocarbon generation and their exploitation delivered large amounts of mostly biogenic gas to the market ...

Over half a century of Messinian salinity crisis

open access: yesBoletín Geológico y Minero, 2016
Did the Mediterranean ever become a desert during Messinian or was it a huge hyperhaline water body? According to Selli, the introduction of the concept and name of the Messinian Salinity Crisis in 1954, the second hypothesis was correct, but he did not succeed in preventing the rapid growth of popularity of the first hypothesis, triggered by the DSD ...

The Psematismenos-Maroni Basin (South Cyprus): Cenozoic tectonic and sedimentary evolution

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
The Tertiary regressive sedimentary succession, which forms the sedimentary cover of the Troodos Ophiolitic Massif, was studied in the Psematismenos-Maroni Basin in Southern Cyprus. A series of unconformity surfaces were identified based on key surfaces,

The search for ancient life on Mars using morphological and mass spectrometric analysis: an analog study in detecting microfossils in Messinian gypsum

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Hydrated sulfate deposits have been detected on Mars. A spaceflight instrument capable of detecting microfossils in these salt deposits is highly important for the search for ancient life on Mars.
