Climate constrains the evolutionary history and biodiversity of crocodylians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The fossil record of crocodylians and their relatives (pseudosuchians) reveals a rich evolutionary history, prompting questions about causes of long-term decline to their present-day low biodiversity.

Deep structure of the Baringo Rift Basin (central Kenya) from three-dimensional magnetotelluric imaging: Implications for rift evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Three-dimensional modeling of data from 31 vertical electrical and 24 magnetotelluric soundings collected in the Baringo-Bogoria Basin (central Kenya Rift Valley) shows a thick succession of well-defined tectonostratigraphic units beneath the Recent ...

Surface Microtextures of Quartz Grains and Origin of the Paleogene Sands in the Ulyanovsk-Syzran Volga Region

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2023
Quartz grains were separated by standard sieving of the Paleogene sands from the Sosnovka Formation of the Ulyanovsk-Syzran Volga region, which are a scarce and valuable raw material for glass making and construction.

An early Eocene pan-gekkotan from France could represent an extra squamate group that survived the K/Pg extinction [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2023
In this paper we describe a new lizard from the early Eocene of the Cos locality in the Quercy region (near the Caylus village, Southwest France). The age of the Cos deposit has been proposed as the MP 10–11 interval, close to the transition of the ...

Jurassic to Paleogene: Part 2 Paleogene geochronology and chronostratigraphy

open access: yesGeological 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.

Palynostratigraphy and palynofacies of the early Eocene Gurha lignite mine, Rajasthan, India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A 105 m early Eocene section exposed in the Gurha mine in the Nagaur-Ganganagar Basin, Rajasthan, India, archiving remains of equatorial vegetation at a time of extreme global warmth and close to the onset of the India-Eurasia collision, is investigated ...
