The invertebrate macrofauna of four methane-seep deposits of Miocene to Pleistocene age
from Taiwan is taxonomically evaluated. The Neogene faunas, with one example each from …

This chapter summarizes information about ancient hydrocarbon seeps from around the
world. The information is organized into two tables, one comprising both Americas and …

Brachiopods were thought to have dominated deep-sea hydrothermal vents and
hydrocarbon seeps for most of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic, and were believed to have …

A spectacular field of columnar carbonates has been discovered on the Montenegrin margin
in the southern Adriatic Sea at a depth of about 450 m. The site exposes many columnar …

This paper analyses and describes the benthic foraminiferal associations within the
Pleistocene deposits of the Stirone River (Emilia-Romagna, Italy), with the purpose of testing …

The origin of modern seafloor methane emissions in the Barents Sea is tightly connected to
the glacio-tectonic and oceanographic transformations following the last ice age. Those …

Cold-water corals have inhabited the Mediterranean basin since at least the Miocene,
undergoing important modifications through time. Most information regarding pre …

Carbonate deposits related to active seeps are documented along most continental margins
and are characterized by peculiar seep-related facies and by chemical (isotope signature) …

The Arda and Stirone marine successions (Italy) represent key sections for the early
Pleistocene; they were deposited continuously within a frame of climate change, recording …

Paola Ridge, along the NW Calabrian margin (southern Tyrrhenian Sea), is one of the few
reported deep sea sites of precipitation of authigenic carbonates in the Tyrrhenian Sea …
