A Tortonian (Late Miocene, 11.61–7.25Ma) global vegetation reconstruction [PDF]
Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2011 For the Tortonian age of the Miocene Epoch (11.6–7.25 Ma) we present a global palaeobotanical and palaeoecologically-based vegetation dataset, combined with a best-fit Late Miocene climate-vegetation model experiment to create an advanced global data–model hybrid biome reconstruction.

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2023 The Neogene Lake Pannon was the largest lake that ever existed in Europe. It attained its greatest extent during the Tortonian Thermal Maximum. For the first time, results from a detailed lake record documenting about 85 kyr of Late Miocene time in a continuously recovered, 60-m-long, clay-rich core of Lake Pannon are reported. This record includes the

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2012 High resolution pollen and dinoflagellate analyses were performed on a continuous 98-cm-long core from Tortonian deposits of Lake Pannon in the Styrian Basin in Austria. The sample distance of 1-cm corresponds to a resolution of roughly one decade, allowing insights into environmental and climatic changes over a millennium of Late Miocene time.

The age of the Tortonian/Messinian boundary [PDF]
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1994 The Tortonian/Messinian boundary is marked by the first occurrence datum (FOD) of Globorotalia conomiozea which is found all over Crete in open-marine marls with good palaeomagnetic properties. Within the framework of the MIOMAR project, the previously studied sections of Langereis et al. [1] have been extended and (partly) resampled.

The "Tortonian Salinity Crisis" of the eastern Betics (Spain) [PDF]
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2000 The late Miocene depositional history of the Lorca and Fortuna basins, both occupying an internal position in the eastern Betics of Spain, is marked by a regressive sequence from open marine marls, via diatomites and evaporites, to continental sediments.

The relative roles of CO2 and palaeogeography in determining Late Miocene climate: results from a terrestrial model-data comparison [PDF]
, 2012 The Late Miocene (∼11.6–5.3 Ma) palaeorecord provides evidence for a warmer and wetter climate than that of today and there is uncertainty in the palaeo-CO2 record of at least 150 ppmv.
