Event stratigraphy is used to help characterise the Anthropocene as a chronostratigraphic concept, based on analogous deep-time events, for which we provide a novel …
Much of our understanding of Earth's past climate comes from the measurement of oxygen and carbon isotope variations in deep-sea benthic foraminifera. Yet, long intervals in …

The alkenone–p CO2 methodology has been used to reconstruct the partial pressure of ancient atmospheric carbon dioxide (p CO2) for the past 45 million years of Earth's history …
The late Miocene offers the opportunity to assess the sensitivity of the Earth's climate to orbital forcing and to changing boundary conditions, such as ice volume and greenhouse …
Abstract Across the Miocene–Pliocene boundary (MPB; 5.3 million years ago, Ma), late Miocene cooling gave way to the early-to-middle Pliocene Warm Period. This transition …

XRF core scanners, with their rapid and non-destructive analytical capability, have now been used for two decades in the analysis of marine sediments. Initially they were used to …
The carbon dioxide (CO2) content of the atmosphere has varied cyclically between~ 180 and~ 280 parts per million by volume over the past 800,000 years, closely coupled with …
This paper presents a review of (astrobiochronological) calibration of Recent to late Oligocene calcareous nannofossil datum events. Biohorizons included in the paper are …
