Lower Aptian ammonite biostratigraphy in the Maestrat Basin (Eastern Iberian Chain, Eastern Spain). A Tethyan transgressive record enhanced by synrift subsidence

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2010
The present paper analyses the stratigraphic distribution of ammonites collected in the Lower Aptian sediments of the Maestrat Basin (E Spain). The faunal successions obtained from the systematic sampling of ten selected sections located in several sub ...

Post‐Eocene 90° CCW Rotation of Sardinia‐South Corsica: Paleomagnetic Evidence From Permian‐Cretaceous Sediments of Nurra (NW Sardinia)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The paleomagnetism of Miocene calc‐alkaline volcanics and sediments from Sardinia has firmly showed that the Corsica‐Sardinia microplate rotated 50°–60° counterclockwise (CCW) with respect to Europe between 21 and 15 Ma, during its drift from the Provencal margin. However, Permian to Eocene rocks from central‐south Sardinia revealed higher (up

ENHYDROSS: A New Mechanistic Model Supports the Trans‐Oceanic Dispersal Capability of Terrestrial Vertebrates

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We introduce ENHYDROSS, a new mechanistic model that uses optimal swimming speed and minimum cost of transport to estimate maximum dispersal distances and durations for vertebrates, enabling assessment of long‐distance oceanic dispersal potential. Applied to a range of extant and extinct animals, the model's estimates generally align with observed data;

Aptian ammonites of Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates) [Ammonites aptiennes d'Abou Dabi (Émirats Arabes Unis)]

open access: yesCarnets de Géologie, 2011
The identification of some twenty ammonite fragments from oil wells drilled in offshore Abu Dhabi revealed the presence of six Aptian genera: Cheloniceras, Epicheloniceras, Gargasiceras, Colombiceras, Pseudohaploceras, and Macroscaphites. These ammonites

Biostratigraphic correlation of the western and eastern margins of the Labrador–Baffin Seaway and implications for the regional geology. Appendix 3 [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2016
New analyses of the palynological assemblages in 13 offshore wells on the Canadian margin and six on the West Greenland Margin, in conjunction with onshore data, have led to a new biostratigraphic framework for the Cretaceous–Cenozoic strata of the ...

Biostratigrafie spodní křídy manínské jednotky (lom Butkov, Strážovské vrchy, Západní Karpaty) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper is a continuation of systematic stratigraphical research of Lower Cretaceous sequence of the Manín Unit excavated in the Butkov quarry. Calcareous deposits are significant especially by richness of ammonites.

South Atlantic continental margins of Africa: a comparison of the tectonic vs climate interplay on the evolution of equatorial west Africa and SW Africa margins

open access: yes, 2005
The comparative review of 2 representative segments of Africa continental margin: the equatorial western Africa and the SW Africa margins, helps in analysing the main controlling factors on their development.

Dispersal and delimitation: Phylogenomics of Connaraceae prompts revised generic delimitation in Cnestideae and reveals global biogeographic patterns

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The tempo and mode of assembly of the world's most diverse, tropical floras remain poorly known. Evolutionary relationships within pantropical plant clades such as Connaraceae (Oxalidales, ca. 220 species) offer an opportunity to address this issue.

Les Phylloceratoidea (Ammonoidea) aptiens et albiens du bassin vocontien (Sud-Est de la France) [Aptian and Albian Phylloceratids (Ammonoidea) from the Vocontian Basin (SE France)]

open access: yesCarnets de Géologie, 2008
More than 2,200 pyritized ammonites of the Superfamily Phylloceratatoidea have been collected in consonance with the scale of the ammonite zonation of the expanded Marnes Bleues Fm in the Vocontian Basin (SE France).

A 3D View of Igneous Plumbing Systems in Sedimentary Basins: Examples From the Santos and Campos Basins (Brazilian Margin)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Igneous Plumbing Systems in sedimentary basins comprise a complex of interconnected intrusive bodies that lead to volcano formation, though their 3D distribution and dynamics are not fully understood. We characterized the post‐breakup igneous plumbing systems at the Santos and Campos Basins using wells and 3D high‐resolution seismic and ...
