[HTML][HTML] Contourites and associated sediments controlled by deep-water circulation processes: State-of-the-art and future considerations
The contourite paradigm was conceived a few decades ago, yet there remains a need to
establish a sound connection between contourite deposits, basin evolution and …

The timing of Mediterranean sapropel deposition relative to insolation, sea-level and African monsoon changes
The Mediterranean basin is sensitive to global sea-level changes and African monsoon
variability on orbital timescales. Both of these processes are thought to be important to the …

Regional and global benthic δ18O stacks for the last glacial cycle
LE Lisiecki, JV Stern - Paleoceanography, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Although detailed age models exist for some marine sediment records of the last glacial
cycle (0–150 ka), age models for many cores rely on the stratigraphic correlation of benthic …

Evolution of the Late Miocene Mediterranean–Atlantic gateways and their impact on regional and global environmental change
Marine gateways play a critical role in the exchange of water, heat, salt and nutrients
between oceans and seas. As a result, changes in gateway geometry can significantly alter …
