Background The oxygen (δ18O) and carbon (δ13C) isotope compositions of bioapatite from
skeletal remains of fossil mammals are well-established proxies for the reconstruction of …

Recently, attention has been drawn to the recognition of past seagrass for which a number
of proxies have been proposed. Several studies have quoted ostracods as having some …

Abstract the Late Badenian coralline algae-vermetid reefs and the early Sarmatian serpulid-
microbialite reefs distributed widely in the northeastern and eastern borders of the …

The Miocene of the northern part of the Polish Carpathian Foredeep contains a record of
events particularly important in the evolution of the Central Paratethys Basin. There, the …

In this paper, we present the ectothermic vertebrate fauna from the late Middle Miocene
locality Gratkorn (Austria). In total, 2 fish, 8 amphibian and 17 reptile taxa have been …

Marine gateways are important for semi-enclosed basins as they control exchange flows
and influence water circulation. During much of the Early and Middle Miocene (~ 23–13Ma) …

Massive evaporites were discovered in the Soltvadkert Trough (Great Plain, Hungary)
correlating to the Badenian Salinity Crisis (13.8 Ma, Middle Miocene) on the basis of …

A possible mechanism leading to the transformation of the Paratethys seas (ie, the
Sarmatian Sea-Lake, Meotian Sea, Pontian Sea-Lake, etc.) is here proposed. The time …

In this research, the crustal thickness (Moho depth) variations in the Black Sea and
surrounding region were calculated from the regional gravity anomaly data using an …

The Sarmatian sedimentary record of the Borod Depression (eastern Pannonian Basin)
consists of a marine sequence with continental influence. The investigated section, located …
