Quantitative foraminiferal and palynomorph biostratigraphy of the Paleogene in the southwestern Barents Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The stratigraphic distribution of both foraminifera and dinoflagellate cysts is recorded from the Paleocene to Eocene Torsk Formation in 12 petroleum exploration wells drilled in the southwestern Barents Sea.

Paleogene – Neogene

open access: yes
During the late Danian-Selandian Laramide phase, open-marine carbonate deposition of the Late Cretaceous and earliest Paleocene was replaced by clastic sediment infll of the Southern North Sea Basin. The Laramide phase, associated with domal uplift and subsidence of Mesozoic grabens, led to a break in sedimentation and reworking of Upper Cretaceous ...

Characteristics of Gravity Flow Deposits in the Benin Basin (Benin) and Implications for Oil and Gas Exploration

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the underexplored Benin Basin features a narrow shelf and steep slope, which promoted the development of multi‐phase, stacked channel‐lobe complexes. These gravity flow deposits, further enhanced by bottom current reworking, reveal a significant undiscovered Upper Cretaceous stratigraphic play with considerable petroleum ...

Local Structures of Se and Br in Cretaceous–Paleogene Boundary Sediments and Concentration Effects of Ferrihydrite Originating From Impact Ejecta

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Chemical states of Se and Br atoms in the KPg boundary sediments from Stevns Klint were studied using XAFS spectroscopy. The high concentrations of Se4+ could become an index of the degree to which the global environment was soiled with dust and ash derived from impact ejecta or volcanic eruptions.

Characteristics and geological significance of escaping gas rich in natural hydrogen from pilot well BYP5 cores of lower sub-member of third member of Shahejie Formation in Zhanhua Sag, Bohai Bay Basin

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi
The pilot well BYP5 is a cored well drilled to explore the oil and gas bearing properties of the highly thermally evolved lower sub-member of the third member of the Paleogene Shahejie Formation in the Bonan deep sag of the Zhanhua Sag, Bohai Bay Basin ...

Miocene to Quaternary Tectonostratigraphic Evolution of the Northern Section of the Burdur‐Fethiye Shear Zone, South‐Western Türkiye

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
New zircon ages reveal that lacustrine sedimentation initiated in the Late Miocene (Messinian), revising earlier Pliocene age assignments. The study results support the interpretation of the northern BFSZ as a broad left‐lateral transtensional shear zone rather than a discrete sinistral fault or simple extensional graben array.

Leg 199 summary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 199, "The Paleogene Equatorial Transect" (Sites 1215-1222), was designed to study the evolution of the equatorial Pacific current and wind system as Earth went from maximum Cenozoic warmth to initial Antarctic glaciations.

Documenting Translation and Vertical-Axis Rotations using Paleomagnetic Techniques along the Panama Isthmus: Preliminary Results

open access: yesRevista de I + D Tecnológico, 2012
Along the Isthmus of Panama 23 paleomagnetic sites were sampled in order to determine preliminary block rotations and paleolatitudinal movements. The lithology selected for this research corresponds to volcanic and sedimentary rocks with ages ranging ...

Mainland diversification and recent island lineages in the reduviid genus Tapirocoris: an integrative taxonomic framework with four new species

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Using an integrative taxonomic framework that combines COI DNA barcodes, geometric morphometrics and phylogeography, we revise the assassin bug genus Tapirocoris and recover seven well‐supported species, including four newly described cryptic species.
