Simulating late Pliocene northern hemisphere climate with the LLN 2-D model [PDF]
Deep-sea sediment records suggest Northern Hemisphere glaciation intensified at approximately 2.75 Ma. In this paper we simulate the fluctuations of the late Pliocene Northern Hemisphere ice-sheets volume using the LLN 2-D model, forced by the ...

Using the large-scale thick 4# coal seam from the Mid-Jurassic in the southern Ordos Basin as an example, this paper studied the net primary productivity (NPP) level of the Mid-Jurassic peatland, and discussed its control factors.

The Dependence of Earth Milankovitch Cycles on Martian Mass [PDF]
The Milankovitch cycles of Earth result from gravitational interactions with other bodies in the solar system. These interactions lead to slow changes in the orbit and angular momentum vector of Earth, and correspondingly influence Earth’s climate ...

Restoring the deposition velocity during evolution in basin analysis is an important aspect. The restoration of high-resolution deposition velocity—the deposition velocity over a short geological period—can improve the precision of basin analysis and ...

Milankovitch Period Uncertainties and Their Impact on Cyclostratigraphy [PDF]
Astronomically calibrated cyclostratigraphy relies on correct matching of observed sedimentary cycles to predicted astronomical drivers such as eccentricity, obliquity and climate-precession. However the periods of these astronomical cycles, in the past,

Recognition of non-Milankovitch sea-level highstands at 185 and 343 thousand years ago from U-Th dating of Bahamas sediment [PDF]
Thirty-one new bulk-sediment U-Th dates are presented, together with an improved δO stratigraphy, for ODP Site 1008A on the slopes of the Bahamas Banks. These ages supplement and extend those from previous studies and provide constraints on the timing of

Toarcian sections studied mainly in Europe have revealed the incidence of Milankovitch forcing with a well-developed, highly stable, 405 ky component of eccentricity, a short-term eccentricity of ~100 kyr, the cycle of obliquity ~36 kyr, and the ...

Integrated bio- and cyclostratigraphy of Middle Triassic (Anisian) ramp deposits, NW Bulgaria
A cyclostratigraphic interpretation of peritidal to shallow-marine ramp deposits of the early Middle Triassic (Anisian) Opletnya Member exposed in outcrops along the Iskar River gorge, NW Bulgaria, is presented.
