In the past 15 years our picture of the Silurian has changed dramatically. Based on
palaeontological, geochemical, and sedimentological investigations, it is now known that the …

For a long time, the Silurian was thought to represent a time of stable environmental
conditions in the greenhouse period that followed the Late Ordovician glaciation. During the …

Ratios of stable carbon and oxygen isotopes in brachiopod shells (more than 370
specimens, esp. Atrypa reticularis) from the Silurian of Gotland, Sweden, have been …

Micritic limestone-marl alternations make up the major part of the Silurian strata on Gotland
(Sweden). Their position on the stable Baltic Shield protected them from deep burial and …

The new standard conodont zonation includes, in succession from below: Lower Ps. bicornis
Zone, Upper Ps. bicornis Zone, Lower P. procerus Zone, Upper P. procerus Zone, Lower K …

Abstract The Silurian of Gotland, Sweden, consists of 440 m of carbonate deposits.
Repeatedly, uniform sequences of micritic limestones and marls are interrupted by complex …

The Ohesaare borehole, in the northern part of the Silurian Baltic Gulf, penetrates shallow
and deep shelf marlstones, limestones and dolostones. The Priekule borehole in the deep …

One hundred and seventy-two non-luminescent brachiopod shells from the Silurian
sequence of Gotland were investigated for their carbon and oxygen isotopic composition …

Biotic and sedimentological cycles in the late Silurian are closely similar to those recognized
in the early Silurian. They are explained here by alternations between primo and secundo …

Graphic correlation using graptolites and conodonts provides a high-resolution timescale for
correlating from coastal to deep oceanic sections and, thereby, also a detailed record of the …
