Our recent surveys of dysoxic and anoxic sites reveal that many of the common foraminiferal
inhabitants sequester chloroplasts. Such species include: Nonionella stella, which …

Radiolarian productivity pulses and related radiolarite deposition are phenomena difficult to
understand from an exclusively actualistic viewpoint. Evolutionary selection pressure among …

Carbonate platforms changed substantially in spatial extent, geometry, composition and
palaeogeographical distribution through the Phanerozoic. Although reef construction and …

A high-resolution stratigraphy has been developed for the interval encompassing the
Cenomanian–Turonian boundary (CTBI), by means of several lithological, biological and …

Organic-walled dinoflagellate cyst (dinocyst) and geochemical records across the
Cenomanian–Turonian boundary (CTB) are presented for the NW European reference …

Many guyots in the north Pacific are built of drowned Cretaceous shallow-water carbonates
that rest on edifice basalt. Dating of these limestones, using strontium-and carbon-isotope …

A new high resolution sea-level curve for the Late Cenomanian M. geslinianum Zone has
been generated using sequence stratigraphic analysis on transects through the margins of …

Abstract The Upper Jurassic to Eocene Apulia Platform margin and the eastward transition
to the adjacent basinal deposits are well exposed in the Gargano Promontory (southern …

A deeper understanding of hyperthermal events in the Earth's history can provide an
important scientific basis for understanding and coping with global warming in the …

A two-step pattern in the extinction of larger foraminifers is recorded in the upper
Cenomanian shallow-water carbonates of the southern Apennines (Italy). The first step …
