UVIGERINELLOIDES: A NEW ROTALIID BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL GENUS [PDF]

open access: yesScience Heritage Journal
This study describes a new Paleogene Rotaliid genus Uvigerinelloides from the middle Oligocene, Septarienthon of Hermsdorf, near Berlin, Germany. It is characterized by fusiform triserial perforate calcareous test, chambers regularly triserial throughout,

Connecting the distribution and diversification of marine plants

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Integration of the evolutionary history with distribution of extant species is necessary to explain present‐day diversity, particularly for ‘foundation' species, such as seagrasses, which create habitats of socioecological relevance. Here, we resolved if varying evolutionary history of seagrass families has imprinted the distribution ranges of extant ...

Petrographic and geochemical evidence for determining the provenance of the Nari Formation, Pakistan

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional
The geochemical and petrographic characteristics of the Nari Formation (NF) have been thoroughly examined at the Haji Haroon section in the Lower Indus Basin (LIB), located in the Northern Laki Range, approximately 20 kilometres south of Therhi village ...

A finding of Oligocene primates on the European continent [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
In this paper, we provide evidence that contrary to the current view, primates on the European continent did survive the dramatic extinction/origination event across the Eocene/Oligocene boundary 34 million years ago that severely affected the Eurasian mammal communities (the European “Grande Coupure” and the Asian “Mongolian Remodeling”). The survival

Waves of range dynamics and gene flow characterize the biogeographic history of Litsea elongata, a dominant tree in East Asian evergreen broadleaved forests

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Evergreen broadleaved forests (EBLFs) represent an iconic vegetation type in subtropical montane East Asia, but they are experiencing intensifying anthropogenic pressure and increasing habitat fragmentation. Here, using a dominant and widespread tree species characteristic of East Asian EBLFs, we examine its phylogeographic history and evaluate what it

Cementation scenarios for New Zealand Cenozoic nontropical limestones

open access: yes, 1996
Cenozoic limestones are widely distributed in New Zealand, especially in the Oligocene-earliest Miocene in both islands, and the Pliocene-Pleistocene in North Island.

Forensic Hydraulic Analysis of Floodplain Connectivity Driven by Historical Beaver Dams in Colorado Headwater Streams

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...

Antarctic topography at the Eocene–Oligocene boundary [PDF]

open access: yesPalaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2012
We present a reconstruction of the Antarctic topography at the Eocene–Oligocene (ca. 34 Ma) climate transition. This provides a realistic key boundary condition for modeling the first big Antarctic ice sheets at this time instead of using the present day bedrock topography, which has changed significantly from millions of years of tectonism and erosion.

Geochemical expression of early diagenesis in middle Eocene-lower Oligocene pelagic sediments in the Southern Labrador Sea, Site 647, ODP Leg 105

open access: yes, 1989
Geochemical analyses of the middle Eocene through lower Oligocene lithologic Unit IIIC (260-518 meters below sea floor [mbsf]) indicate a relatively constant geochemical composition of the detrital fraction throughout this depositional interval at Ocean ...
