Abstract Large earthquakes often elevate seismicity in surrounding regions, as seen on the Xainza‐Dinggyê rift in southern Tibet after the 2015 MW 7.8 Gorkha (Nepal) earthquake. In contrast, the EW‐trending Yarlung Zangbo suture (YZS), located directly north of this event, exhibits seismic quiescence.

Substantial continental temperature rise over the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum in the Pyrenees
The Eocene period experienced several hyperthermal events with the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum being the most significant. During this event, global mean surface temperatures were 5–6 °C higher and latitudinal temperature gradients were reduced ...

Bothremydidae was one of the most diverse and widespread group of side-necked turtles (pleurodirans) during the Cretaceous and part of the Paleogene. In South America, the Paleogene record of bothremydids is restricted to Puentemys mushaisaensis from ...

The Galala Mountains in Egypt provide an excellent platform-basin transect with deposits spanning the Paleocene/ Eocene (P/E) boundary. These interfingering deposits enable a recalibration between platform and open marine biostratigraphic schemes.
