Stage boundaries, global stratigraphy, and the time scale: towards a simplification [PDF]
This paper examines four facets of stratigraphic terminology and usage considered faulty and proposes corrective measures. The four perfectible areas are: (1) The system of dual nomenclature requiring discrete terminologies for the superpositional and ...

Palaeoclimate evolution and sequence stratigraphy during Pliocene Shizigou stage, Qaidam Basin
The Qaidam Basin is a large transpressional Mesozoic to Cenozoic basin in the Tibet Plateau, West China. Since the Indosinian Movement, it has been in the subsidence stage and more than 3 trillion cubic meters of natural gas accumulated at the same time.

Integrated stratigraphy of the Waitakian‐Otaian Stage boundary stratotype, Early Miocene, New Zealand [PDF]
Abstract The base of the type section of the Otaian Stage at Bluecliffs, South Canterbury, is recognised as the stratotype for the boundary between the Waitakian and Otaian Stages. Principal problems with the boundary are the restriction of existing bioevent proxies to shelf and upper slope environments and its uncertain age.

Quantitative stratigraphic volume of Martian lowlands using Noachian crater statistics: new bounds on volcanic effusion and flooding epochs [PDF]
The thickness and volume of the stratigraphic sequence in Mars’ northern lowlands remain poorly constrained, despite their key role in recording the planet’s geological and paleoclimatic evolution.
