Evolution of the northern Tethyan Helvetic Platform during the late Berriasian and early Valanginian [PDF]

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2016
AbstractThe Early Cretaceous period is characterized by widespread carbonate production in tropical and subtropical epicontinental seas, which was modulated by changes in sea‐level, detrital and nutrient fluxes, and the global carbon cycle. As a result, carbonate platforms were sensitive recorders of environmental change, which often anticipated global

Drowned carbonate‐rimmed margin controlling shelf‐edge delta progradation and sedimentation dynamics: Upper Cretaceous Woodbine Formation, Texas, USA

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shelf‐edge deltas are commonly interpreted to record basinward facies migration across uninterrupted, gently dipping shelf margins; however, examples from mixed siliciclastic‐carbonate margins reveal more complex depositional dynamics. Periods and areas of carbonate sedimentation within mixed siliciclastic‐carbonate margins can modify shelf ...

A Turiasaurian (Dinosauria, Sauropoda) Tooth from the Pliensbachian Hasle Formation of Bornholm, Denmark, Shows an Early Jurassic Origin of the Turiasauria

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Turiasauria is a clade of basal sauropod dinosaurs hitherto only known from the Middle Jurassic (Bathonian) to the Lower Cretaceous (Valanginian). A new find of a shed tooth crown from the Lower Jurassic (Pliensbachian), Halse Formation of Bornholm ...

Mercury enrichment indicates volcanic triggering of Valanginian environmental change

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractThe Valanginian stage (Early Cretaceous) includes an episode of significant environmental changes, which are well defined by a positive δ13C excursion. This globally recorded excursion indicates important perturbations in the carbon cycle, which has tentatively been associated with a pulse in volcanic activity and the formation of the Paraná ...

Fish remains from the Lower Cretaceous (Valanginian-Hauterivian) of Hárskút (Hungary, Bakony Mts) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Lower Cretaceous (Valanginian-Hauterivian) fish remains, collected in the Közöskút Ravine (nearby Hárskút, Hungary) in the 1960s are detailed here. Although the material is poorly preserved, it is of great importance, because this geographical region and

Late Valanginian extinction and turnover of Tethyan brachiopods: A signal of the Weissert Event (Bakony Mountains, Hungary) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Brachiopods, together with ammonoids, were collected bed-by-bed from several Lower Cretaceous pelagic sections and localities in the Bakony Mountains (Transdanubian Range, Hungary), dated by detailed ammonoid and nannofossil biostratigraphy.

The sinemydid turtle Ordosemys from the Lower Cretaceous Mengyin Formation of Shandong, China and its implication for the age of the Luohandong Formation of the Ordos Basin [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Chronostratigraphic correlation of terrestrial Early Cretaceous biotas in China is highly problematic due to the lack of marine deposits, few absolute dates, and limited number of index fossils.

The first belemnite of boreal ancestry from the Early Cretaceous (Valanginian) of the western Tethys: implications for belemnite ecology

open access: yes, 2022
The first occurrence of the belemnite species Liobelus acrei (formerly Acroteuthis acrei) is reported from the Lower Cretaceous (Valanginian) of the Vocontian Basin (VB; south‐east France).
