The basins and orogens of the Mediterranean region ultimately result from the opening of
oceans during the early break-up of Pangea since the Triassic, and their subsequent …

Calcareous nannofossil stratigraphy has been investigated in six European land sections
and at two Deep Sea Drilling Project Sites (391C and 534A) ranging from the Upper …

The Earth's orbital variations, reflected in Pleistocene ice volume, were also recorded in non-
glacial times. Carbonate production in pelagic mid-Cretaceous sediments, quantified by …

Magnetostratigraphy is an important method in regional and worldwide correlations across
the Jurassic/Cretaceous boundary. The M-sequence of magnetic anomalies, embracing this …

During the Upper Tithonian to Early Aptian the Tethys Ocean, located between Eurasia and
Africa (Fig. 1) was bordered by deeply submerged margins and marginal basins in which …

Here in the first part of this publication we discuss the possibilities for the selection of a
GSSP for the Berriasian Stage of the Cretaceous System, based on the established methods …

This study summarizes the final results of magnetostratigraphic and biostratigraphic
investigations of the Tithonian/Berriasian (J/K) boundary limestones at the locality of Puerto …

Calcareous nannofossil stratigraphy has been investigated in Lower Cretaceous Italian
sections at Gorgo a Cerbara, Presale and Frontale (all in the Umbrian Apennines) and at …

The latest Jurassic was a crucial time for calcareous nannoplankton as a major speciation
episode took place with the appearance and rapid evolution of several new genera and …

Geomagnetic reversals and magnetic polarity chrons provide an important
chronostratigraphic tool for global correlation. An integrated Tithonian-Berriasian …
