Oldest Cretaceous latimeriid elucidates cranial evolution in derived and extant coelacanths (Actinistia, Latimeriidae)

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract The fossil record of coelacanths (Actinistia) is diminished by several nominal gaps that obscure vital information pertaining to the clade's evolutionary history. Latimeriidae, the family that includes the extant coelacanth Latimeria, in addition to the Cenozoic, has an outstanding missing gap of 50 myr during the Mesozoic, with no records of ...

Integrated stratigraphy of the Upper Barremian–Aptian sediments from the south-eastern Crimea

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2018
Previous studies made in different parts of the world have shown that Barremian–Aptian times imply many difficulties in deciphering the biostratigraphy, microfossil evolution and correlation of bioevents.

Large‐Scale Submarine Sediment Waves at Macauley Caldera Volcano: In Situ Evidence of High‐Flux, Syn‐Eruptive Submarine Transport

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Two sediment cores were collected from a submarine sediment wave field on the flank of Macauley volcano. Combined with seismic reflection surveys and numerical modeling, we present an integrated model of the formation of large‐scale, eruption‐fed, submarine sediment waves. The sediment waves are large (>100 m high, 1.5 km wide, tens of km long)

A Global Evaluation of Lithology‐Dependent Marine Sediment Compaction Parameters and Their Uncertainties

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Tectonic subsidence, sea level, and paleoclimate reconstructions using marine records rely on accurate decompaction of the sediment column. Over time, increased overburden pressure from burial decreases sediment porosity with depth. The porosity‐depth relationship is lithology‐dependent and can be represented by an exponential function ...

First record of Gitolampas subrotundus (Cotteau, 1856) (Echinoidea) from the Late Paleocene of Iran [PDF]

open access: yesGeološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2019
In this paper we present the first record of well preserved specimens of Gitolampas subrotundus (Cotteau, 1856) from the Late Paleocene of Iran (Jorasan Razavi county, northeast Iran).

Ceramic composition at Chalcolithic Shiqmim, northern Negev desert, Israel: investigating technology and provenance using thin section petrography, instrumental geochemistry and calcareous nannofossils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Technological innovations in ceramic production and other crafts are hallmarks of the Chalcolithic period (4500–3600 BCE) in the southern Levant, but details of manufacturing traditions have not been fully investigated using the range of analytical ...

Organic Carbon Burial following the Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO) in the central - western Tethys

open access: yes, 2010
We present trace metal geochemistry and stable isotope records for the middle Eocene Alano di Piave section, NE Italy, deposited during magnetochron C18n in the marginal Tethys Ocean. We identify a $\sim$ 500 kyr long carbon isotope perturbation event we

Terrestrial Ecosystem Response to Changing Temperature and Seasonality in the Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum: Shallow Marine Records From the Salisbury Embayment, USA

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Paleocene‐Eocene thermal maximum (PETM, ∼56 Ma) is marked by a massive and rapid rise in atmospheric CO2 and ∼5°C of global warming. It is globally characterized by a negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE), and, at least locally, is preceded by a pre‐onset excursion (POE).

DINOFLAGELLATE CYSTS AND CALCAREOUS NANNOFOSSILS FROM THE UPPER CRETACEOUS SARACENO FORMATION (CALABRIA, ITALY): IMPLICATIONS ABOUT THE HISTORY OF THE LIGURIDE COMPLEX

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2003
Organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts and calcareous nannofossils recovered from the turbidites of the Saraceno Formation outcropping in the type area (north-eastern Calabria, Italy) are presented. They provide new information about the age of the Saraceno
