The Size of Greater India: Estimates by Comparing the Apparent Polar Wander Paths of the Tethyan Himalaya and the Indian Craton

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The northern extent of Greater India is a critical, yet highly debated, parameter for reconstructing the India‐Asia collision. Previous paleomagnetic estimates, including the fill‐the‐gap and fixed great circle approaches, yield widely varying results, spanning from ∼200 to ∼3,000 km. These large discrepancies stem principally from two primary

Cambrian Stage 3 Paleomagnetism of the South China Block: Implications for Early Paleozoic Gondwana Reconstructions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The paleogeographic position of the South China Block (SCB) during the early Paleozoic and its affiliation with Gondwana remain debated. We report new high‐quality paleomagnetic data from sandstone‐dominated Cambrian Stage 3 strata correlated with the Yu'anshan–Hongjingshao succession collected along the southwestern margin of the SCB ...

Extinction intensity during Ordovician and Cenozoic glaciations explained by cooling and palaeogeography [PDF]

, 2019
A striking feature of the marine fossil record is the variable intensity of extinction during superficially similar climate transitions. Here we combine climate models and species trait simulations to explore the degree to which differing ...

Simulated Ocean Oxygen Under Miocene Boundary Conditions

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The Miocene Climatic Optimum (MCO; 16.9–14.7 Ma) was a warm interval with atmospheric CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ comparable to end‐of‐21st‐century projections under intermediate emission scenarios. Proxy records indicate the Oxygen Minimum Zone (OMZ) in the Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP) was small or non‐existent during the MCO, expanding only when

The PRISM4 (mid-Piacenzian) palaeoenvironmental reconstruction [PDF]

, 2016
The mid-Piacenzian is known as a period of relative warmth when compared to the present day. A comprehensive understanding of conditions during the Piacenzian serves as both a conceptual model and a source for boundary conditions and means of ...

THE SMALL MAMMALS (INSECTIVORES, BATS AND RODENTS) FROM THE HOLOCENE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE OF VALLONE INFERNO (SCILLATO, LOWER IMERA VALLEY, NORTHWESTERN SICILY)

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2013
The Vallone Inferno rock-shelter is an archeological site located at 770 m a.s.l. in the Madonie massif in Sicily. This massif is modeled into the Triassic and Oligocene sedimentary rocks of the Imerese Basin.

TERTIARY PALAEOGEOGRAPHY OF JAPAN

Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1938
In this treatise, six Palaeogeographic maps of Tertiary Japan are given, representing the different stages of the Tertiary Epoch. To facilitate comparison, those of the three stages of Cretaceous have been added. On each map is shown the distribution of Land and Sea when the sea transgression was the greatest.

Reconstruction of the Cretaceous Palaeogeographic Position of Hainan Island and Its Tectonic Significance

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Reconstruction of the palaeogeographical location of Hainan Island is important for understanding the interaction between Indochina and South China. In this study, we integrate topographic relief, gravity anomalies, and magnetic anomalies, along with ...
