Evolution in arid environments: the role of betalains, succulence, and medullary bundles

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Overview of the study system. Summary The flowering plant clade Caryophyllales includes many succulent species that grow in drought conditions. Many Caryophyllales species also have betalain pigmentation and medullary bundles, both of which have been linked to stress tolerance, albeit with less precise functional characterisation.

Santonian–Campanian Calcareous Nannofossil Paleobiogeography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Calcareous nannofossil abundance data from 11 DSDP/ODP sites were analyzed by multivariate methods to assess the paleoceanographic change that is associated with the Santonian-Campanian boundary transition.

Definition and global correlation of the Santonian-Campanian boundary

open access: yes, 1995
Review of biostratigraphical evidence from different regions shows that criteria used by workers on various marine fossil groups to define the Santonian-Campanian boundary differ considerably in relative age and position.

NEW DATA ON THE MID- TO UPPER CRETACEOUS SUCCESSION OF EASTERN SARDINIA IN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE GEOLOGICAL EVOLUTION OF THE TETHYAN REALM

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia
Aimed at integrating knowledge of the Mesozoic succession of eastern Sardinia, two sections of Cenomanian and Santonian ages are presented, and their lithostratigraphical, palaeontological, and biostratigraphical features are described in detail.

Osteological correlates of the respiratory and vascular systems in the neural canals of Mesozoic ornithurines Ichthyornis and Janavis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 10, Page 2725-2738, October 2026.
Abstract In birds, the neural canal houses a variety of anatomical structures including the spinal cord, meninges, spinal vasculature, and respiratory diverticula. Among these, paramedullary diverticula and the extradural dorsal spinal vein may leave behind osteological correlates in the form of pneumatic foramina and fossae, and a bilobed geometry of ...

The Unexpected Discovery of Paleocene? Coals in Outcrops Thought to Be Cambrian, Al Huqf, Oman

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 1179-1194, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Two brown organic deposits were encountered whilst investigating kaolinitic claystones thought to occur at the base of a Cambrian formation at outcrop. The age of these organic deposits is probably Paleocene from palynology. Organic petrography shows that they are subbituminous coals with some oil source potential.

Flexural bulges and foredeep basins: Dynamic tectonic control on shifting depocentres and condensed facies, Upper Cretaceous (Santonian), Western Canada Foreland Basin

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 4, September 2026.
Allostratigraphically defined mudstone packages show marked along‐strike thickness variation, interpreted to be related to shifting thrust activity in the orogen; loading cycles lasted about 750 kyr. Close to the orogen, the forebulge is mantled by shelly sandstone whereas far from the orogen, the forebulge is typified by organic‐rich mudstone ...

Santonian macrofauna and nannofossils from northeast Belgium [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
From a limited number of mine shafts in the Belgian province of Limburg (Houthalen and Zolder/Voort areas), a small fauna comprising ammonites, belemnites and inoceramid bivalves is described. A nannofossil analysis of samples taken from the ammonites is
