New age findings with microfossils of the Van Formation (Van, Eastern Anatolia)
Van Formation, which is mainly represented by conglomerate, sandstone, marl and limestone, covers a large area around the Van province. The age of the unit was assigned in different localities of the region as late Oligocene - middle Miocene ...

Simulation of the Middle Miocene Climate Optimum [PDF]
Proxy data constraining land and ocean surface paleo‐temperatures indicate that the Middle Miocene Climate Optimum (MMCO), a global warming event at ∼15 Ma, had a global annual mean surface temperature of 18.4°C, about 3°C higher than present and equivalent to the warming predicted for the next century.

Middle Miocene otoliths of freshwater fishes from the Vračević Lake (Serbian Lake System) [PDF]
The Serbian Lake System (SLS) is a key area for early to middle Miocene freshwater environments in southeastern Europe. Here, we describe a rich fossil association of freshwater fish otoliths of late Badenian to early Sarmatian (Serravallian, MN 7+8 zone)

Temperature Gradients Across the Pacific Ocean During the Middle Miocene [PDF]
AbstractSea surface temperatures (SSTs) of the tropical Pacific Ocean exert powerful controls on regional and global climates. Previous studies have suggested that during warm climate phases, the east‐west temperature gradient collapsed. To date, there has been no high‐resolution reconstruction of sea surface conditions in both the east and west ...
