The major changes in Alboran Sea and its periphery since the Tortonian

Arabian Journal of Geosciences, 2021
Major changes have affected the Alboran Sea and its periphery since the Tortonian. They are essentially related to the structural evolution marked by tectonic inversion due to shortening. The revisiting of seismic data available on the Moroccan margin and on the adjacent Western Alboran Basin, added to good stratigraphic calibration (in particular, the

Erosion of Tortonian phosphatic intervals in upwelling zones: The role of internal waves

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2020
Abstract During the Miocene, the upwelling is assumed to be important in the formation of many Mediterranean phosphate deposits in carbonate platform successions. There are different types of upwelling mechanisms such as equatorial upwellings, ice-edge upwellings and coastal upwellings.

Climatically influenced interactions between the Mediterranean and the Paratethys during the Tortonian

Paleoceanography, 2003
The Paratethys was a separate branch of the Tethys Ocean that developed as a series of inland seaways, brackish lakes, and wetlands within the interiors of central‐eastern Europe and western Asia during the Oligocene‐Neogene. A short‐lived connection between the Mediterranean Sea and the Paratethys continental realm toward the very end of the Messinian

Chapter A5 Langhian, serravallian, and tortonian historical stratotypes

1995
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses Langhian, Serravallian, and Tortonian historical stratotypes. Chronostratigraphy does represent a basic common language of communication in Earth Sciences. However, most chronostratigraphic units of the standard Geologic Time Scale lack an appropriate and rigid definition in the rock stratigraphic record ...

Tortonian pontoporiid odontocetes from the Eastern North Sea

Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2007
River dolphins are a non-monophyletic (paraphyletic or polyphyletic) group of Odontoceti that inhabit freshwater, estuarine, and coastal waters in India, China, and South America. Both molecular and morphological analyses consistently group the two South American genera, Inia (Iniidae) and Pontoporia (Pontoporiidae), as sister taxa, to the exclusion of

Structures of the tortonian gypsum rocks in northwestern bulgaria

Sedimentary Geology, 1969
Abstract The Tortonian deposits in northwestern Bulgaria show a great variety of structures which are divided into three main classes. The first one comprises structures formed during the deposition of gypsum and includes laminae and layers resulting from chemical precipitation and/or mechanical replacement of particles.

THE TORTONIAN FLORA OF SWOSZOWICE AND THE PLIOCENE FLORAS OF TRANSCARPATHIA

International Geology Review, 1964
The Tortonian (Miocene) flora of Swoszowice in the Cracow region is analyzed taxonomically and floristically. This flora, which was first described by Unger and Stur in the last century, is con-- siderably revised; of the 31 specific entities recognized, several are of wide occurrence in the Eurasian Neogene. About one-third of the flora is composed of

The Miocene (Aquitanian-Tortonian) of North-Eastern Tunisia

In the Mediterranean Sea, the Cenozoic corresponds to a compressive period represented by folding phases and basin filling. The Tertiary structural development of North Eastern Tunisia is characterized by two tectonic phases: the Oligo-Miocene rifting and the late Miocene compression.

Experiences With an Efficient Rate-Management Approach for the 8th Tortonian Reservoir in the Vienna Basin

SPE Reservoir Evaluation & Engineering, 2013
SummaryActive well-rate management to promote the efficient use of injected fluids and to demote fluid cycling is a simple way to increase recovery in brown fields while minimizing costs and preserving existing field/well-fluid-handling constraints. In this work, we present the application of an efficient flow-based surveillance technique to drive rate-
