CRETACEOUS MICROFOSSIL (FORAMINIFERA AND CALCAREOUS NANOFOSSILS) ASSEMBLAGES FROM THE SUBSURFACE MAGALLANES BASIN, TIERRA DEL FUEGO ISLAND, CHILE

open access: yesPublicación Electrónica de la Asociación Paleontológica Argentina, 2020
Foraminifera and calcareous nannofossils were studied in washed drill-cuttings of three wells from the Chilean sector of the Magallanes Basin. This contribution aims to identify, characterize and illustrate microfossil assemblages throughout the ...

Ceramic micropalaeontology: the analysis of microfossils in ancient ceramics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Microfossils can be a common component of ancient ceramic artefacts. Their analysis in this unusual context is a little-known, yet promising cross-disciplinary application of micropalaeontology.

Oligocene turbidite fans of the Dukla Basin: New age data from the calcareous nannofossils and paleoenvironmental conditions (Cergowa beds, Polish–Slovakian borderland)

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2019
Calcareous nannofossils found in the Cergowa beds of the Dukla and Fore-Dukla tectonic units in the Outer Carpathians indicate a time of deposition in the range of the NP23–NP24 nannoplankton zones of the Lower Oligocene.

A calcareous nannofossil and organic geochemical study of marine palaeoenvironmental changes across the Sinemurian/Pliensbachian (early Jurassic, ~191Ma) in Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Sinemurian/Pliensbachian boundary (~ 191 Ma) is acknowledged as one of the most important steps in the radiation of planktonic organisms, especially primary producers such as dinoflagellates and coccolithophores.

Site 1222

open access: yes, 2002
Site 1222 (13°48.98´N, 143°53.35´W; 4989 meters below sea level [mbsl]; Fig. F1) forms a south-central component of the 56-Ma transect drilled during Leg 199 and is situated ~2° south of the Clarion Fracture Zone in typical abyssal hill topography.

AN INTEGRATED CALCAREOUS PLANKTON BIOSTRATIGRAPHIC SCHEME AND BIOCHRONOLOGY FOR THE MEDITERRANEAN MIDDLE MIOCENE

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2002
The relative position of 30 main bioevents  pertaining to calcareous nannofossils and planktonic foraminifera was identified in the time interval between 13.75 Ma and 10.50 Ma, based on the quantitative study of the those microfossils in three ...

Response and Recovery of the Comanche Carbonate Platform Surrounding Multiple Cretaceous Oceanic Anoxic Events, Northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ubiquity of carbonate platforms throughout the Cretaceous Period is recognized as a product of high eustatic sea-level and a distinct climatic optimum induced by rapid sea-floor spreading and elevated levels of atmospheric carbon-dioxide.

The calcareous nannofossil Prinsiosphaera achieved rock-forming abundances in the latest Triassic of western Tethys: consequences for the δ13C of bulk carbonate [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2013
The onset of pelagic biomineralization was a milestone in the history of the long-term inorganic carbon cycle: as soon as calcareous nannofossils became major limestone producers, the pH and supersaturation state of the global ocean were stabilized (the ...

Early Cretaceous biogeographic and oceanographic synthesis of Leg 123 (off Northwestern Australia) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Biogeographic observations made by Leg 123 shipboard paleontologists for Lower Cretaceous nannofossils, foraminifers, radiolarians, belemnites, and inoceramids are combined in this chapter to evaluate the paleoceanographic history of the northwestern ...

Site 1217

open access: yes, 2002
Site 1217 (16°52.02´N, 138°06.00´W; 5342 meters below sea level [mbsl]; Fig. F1) is one of seven sites drilled to target upper Paleocene crust along a latitudinal transect during Leg 199 and will be used to investigate paleoceanographic processes in the ...
