Middle Aptian Orbitolinid limestones in Belgrade (Serbia): microfacies and depositional environment [PDF]
Geologia Croatica, 2023 Lower Cretaceous (Aptian) shallow-marine limestones with intercalated polymictic conglomerates were investigated with respect to their biostratigraphic age and their microfacies. They are the younger part of the generally carbonate-siliciclastic Lower Cretaceous deep-water (max. few hundred metres) turbiditic sequences (“Paraflysch”) of the so-called

Mid-Cretaceous paleoenvironmental changes in the western Tethys [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2018 We present a continuous record of surface water temperature and fertility variations through the latest Barremian–Cenomanian interval (ca. 27 Myr) based on calcareous nannofossil abundances from the western Tethys.

Migration Routes of the Aptian to Turonian Ostracod Assemblages from North Africa and the Middle East [PDF]
Paleontology Journal, 2014 Quantitative paleobiogeography is a powerful tool for detecting the migration routes of microfossils. This is factual and applicable when we select appropriate analyses for proper problems in the following manner. The quantitative study of 43 selected ostracod species (total of 136 species) from 11 countries of North Africa and the Middle East led to ...
