A pan-cheloniid turtle from the Middle Miocene of Portugal. [PDF]
AbstractCurrently, there is no information on the fossil record of Pan‐Cheloniidae from the Neogene of the Iberian Peninsula. A well‐preserved partial skeleton attributable to this lineage of turtles, from the Middle Miocene of Portugal, is presented here.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Stratigraphic implications of the Middle Miocene of the Despotovac area: Recognition of two geological formations [PDF]
The Middle Miocene of the Despotovac area contains sediments of the lower Middle Miocene (Badenian) and upper Middle Miocene (Sarmatian). The Middle Miocene deposition shows different local variations, but generally fits the evolution of the Central ...

Decrease in coccolithophore calcification and CO2 since the middle Miocene. [PDF]
AbstractMarine algae are instrumental in carbon cycling and atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) regulation. One group, coccolithophores, uses carbon to photosynthesize and to calcify, covering their cells with chalk platelets (coccoliths). How ocean acidification influences coccolithophore calcification is strongly debated, and the effects of carbonate ...

The Neogene lakes on the Balkan land [PDF]
Palaeogeographic maps of the lacustrine Miocene and Pliocene have been constructed according to all the known geological data. The Lakes of the Balkan Land, depending on the tectonics, migrated due to causes from the deep subsurface.
