Miocene vegetation and climate in the eastern North Sea Basin, onshore Denmark, compared to the present

GEUS Bulletin
Despite often being referred to as a ‘coolhouse climate’, the climate during the Miocene (23.03–5.33 Ma) was overall humid, warm and temperate. It was paced by orbitally driven cooler periods (the Oligocene–Miocene Transition and Mi-events) overprinted ...

Antarctic ice sheet and oceanographic response to eccentricity forcing during the early Miocene [PDF]

, 2011
Stable isotope records of benthic foraminifera from ODP Site 1264 in the southeastern Atlantic Ocean are presented which resolve the latest Oligocene to early Miocene (~24–19 Ma) climate changes at high temporal resolution (<3 kyr).

Crocodylian remains from the Miocene of the Fore-Carpathian Basin and its foreland—including the world’s northernmost Neogene crocodylian

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica
The geographic distribution of Crocodylia in Europe throughout the Cenozoic experienced fluctuations in the extension of its northern limit. Whereas crocodylians reached very high latitudes during the early Eocene (78ºN), their northward extension was ...

The karst and palaeokarst of North and North-East Greenland – physical records of cryptic geological intervals

GEUS Bulletin, 2022
Carbonate rocks of Neoproterozoic to Silurian age are abundantly distributed around the coasts of North and North-East Greenland. Palaeokarst horizons are particularly well developed within the Portfjeld Formation (Ediacaran – earliest Cambrian) and ...

Paleomagnetic and geochronologic constraints on the Miocene evolution of semi-isolated basins in southeastern Europe [PDF]

, 2011
This thesis addresses the Miocene evolution of the Central Paratethys and neighboring Dinaride Mountains. The Central Paratethys was a vast epicontinental sea covering most of central and southeastern Europe during the Oligo-Miocene.

The lower Miocene flint conglomerate, Jylland, Denmark: a result of the Savian tectonic phase

GEUS Bulletin, 2020
The early Miocene was an important period for the development of the eastern North Sea. Tectonism in North-West Europe resulted in uplift of the Scandinavian mountains, reactivation of salt structures, inversion of old graben structures and deposition of
