Abstract This study presents a high‐resolution reconstruction of the Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) transport variability on the southeastern Brazilian continental margin over the last 16,000 years BP, based on grain‐size analysis. Variations of sortable silt (SS¯$$ \overline{SS} $$) are interpreted as changes in flow speed of the Intermediate ...

New vertebrate microfossils expand the diversity of the chondrichthyan and actinopterygian fauna of the Maastrichtian–Danian Hornerstown Formation in New Jersey [PDF]
The abundance of shark and actinopterygian fossils in the Cretaceous and Paleogene strata of the Atlantic Coastal Plain is well documented; but much remains unknown about the survivorship patterns of these major components of shallow marine faunas in the

Diagenetic Effect on Planktic Foraminiferal Mg/Ca Records in the Arctic Ocean
Abstract Mg/Ca ratios in planktic foraminifera have long been used as a thermometer to reconstruct the past climate. However, this study revealed that in certain intervals, the Mg/Ca ratios of the planktic foraminifer Neogloboquadrina pachyderma, a widespread species in the Arctic Ocean, displayed anomalously high values which could severely bias paleo‐

The study of the umbilical system in planktonic foraminifera in relation with depth of the Ziarat-kola section at the Maastrichtian, Central Alborz, IRAN [PDF]
The main aim of this research is study of the planktonic foraminifera morphogroups distinction genus to perform by changing the umbilicus area in Ziarat-kola section to find novel results.

Biotic and abiotic processes in Ediacaran spheroid formation
Organic-rich shales from the uppermost Doushantuo Fm. (South China) record one of the most negative carbonate carbon isotopic excursions in Earth’s history, known as the Shuram excursion, and contain meter to micro-size spheroids.

Abstract The Paleocene‐Eocene thermal maximum (PETM, ∼56 Ma) is marked by a massive and rapid rise in atmospheric CO2 and ∼5°C of global warming. It is globally characterized by a negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE), and, at least locally, is preceded by a pre‐onset excursion (POE).

Palaeobathymetry of the Abderaz Formation using foraminifera, Iran [PDF]
Abderaz Formation at its type section with an age of Turonian-early Campanian and a thickness of 300 m contains light grey shale and marl. The study of the planktonic foraminifera in isolated form led to differentiate three morphotype groups.

Lower Glacial Oxygen in the Eastern Equatorial Pacific Concentrated in the Deep Sea
Abstract Oxygen in the global oceans has declined since the 1960s, including in the Eastern Equatorial Pacific (EEP). Reconstructions of EEP glacial oxygenation help advance understanding of current and projected ocean deoxygenation. Previous estimates of the glacial oxygen deficient zones (ODZs) in the upper EEP are poorly constrained. Here we include

Abstract Deep‐sea rare earth elements and yttrium (REY)‐rich sediments have attracted considerable attention since their discovery in 2011. However, the environmental factors controlling REY enrichment remain poorly understood, largely because paleoceanographic proxies are absent in pelagic clays.
