Early Cretaceous life and the environment were strongly influenced by the accelerated
break up of Pangaea, which was associated with the formation of a multitude of rift basins …

The Mesozoic, perhaps representing the longest period of warmth during Phanerozoic Earth
history, contains in general sparse and frequently equivocal evidence for polar ice. Although …

We profile 87Sr/86Sr, δ13C, δ18O, Sr/Ca, Mg/Ca, and Na/Ca in belemnites through
Pliensbachian and Toarcian strata on the Yorkshire coast, UK, which include the early …

The evolution of subtropical (30–35° N) upper ocean temperatures through the Cretaceous
is inferred from the oxygen isotope compositions of 64 fish teeth (enamel) coming from the …

Quantitative sporomorph data of five wells from the southern Central Graben (offshore, The
Netherlands) and from two wells and an outcrop section from East Anglia (onshore, UK) are …

To get a better understanding of controls on reef development through time, we created a
comprehensive database on Phanerozoic reefs. The database currently comprises 2470 …

Paleotemperature proxy data form the cornerstone of paleoclimate research and are integral
to understanding the evolution of the Earth system across the Phanerozoic Eon. Here, we …

Strontium-, oxygen-and carbon-isotope ratios have been determined from Late Jurassic–
Early Cretaceous belemnites from the Volga Basin, Russia, and Kawhia Harbour, New …

Our understanding of the ancient ocean-atmosphere system has focused on oceanic
proxies. However, the study of terrestrial proxies is equally necessary to constrain our …

Oxygen and carbon isotope analyses were carried out on Upper Bajocian–Bathonian
calcitic belemnite rostra and oyster shells as well as aragonitic ammonite, nautiloid and …
