Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Jurassic to Paleogene: Part 2 Paleogene geochronology and chronostratigraphy [PDF]
Geological Society, London, Memoirs, 1985 Summary We present a revised Paleogene geochronology based upon a best fit to selected high temperature radiometric dates on a number of identified magnetic polarity chrons (within the late Cretaceous, Paleogene and Neogene) which minimizes apparent accelerations in sea-floor spreading.

, 2012 ABSTRACT All Paleocene stages (i.e., Danian, Selandian and Thanetian) have formally ratified definitions, and so have the Ypresian and Lutetian Stages in the Eocene, and the Rupelian Stage in the Oligocene. The Bartonian, Priabonian and Chattian Stages are not yet formally defined.

Investigating bio-events and time expansion of Calcareous nannofossils in the upper part of the Gurpi Formation and lower part of the Pabdeh Formation, northwestern Shiraz [PDF]
Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2020 In this study, calcareous nannofossils are investigated in the upper part of the Gurpi Formation and lower part of the Pabdeh Formation at the Par-e Nobar section located in the northwest of Shiraz. The thickness of the studied section is about 41 m. The

Multispecies leatherback turtle assemblage from the Oligocene Chandler Bridge and Ashley formations of South Carolina, USA [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2020 Paleogene dermochelyid species richness far exceeded that of today. Leatherback sea turtles were most species rich in the Paleogene, but their richness declined sharply during the Neogene with only one species existing today, Dermochelys coriacea.
