Oligocene–Miocene chronostratigraphic correlations within the Paratethys domain are still
highly controversial. This study focuses on the late Early Miocene of the Swiss and S …

Considerable facies changes and varying foraminiferal assemblages have been described
from the lower Miocene sediments of the Upper Marine Molasse in the North Alpine …

A detailed integrated stratigraphic study (biostratigraphy and magnetostratigraphy) was
carried out on five sections from the western part of the Bavarian Upper Freshwater Molasse …

Since the proposition in 1975 of the European Neogene Mammal (MN) scale by Pierre Mein,
the amount of taxonomical, stratigraphical and chronological information around Europe has …

The Paratethys evolved as a marginal sea during the Alpine–Himalayan orogeny in the
Oligo-Miocene. Sediments from the northern Alpine Molasse Basin, the Vienna, and the …

Accurate reconstruction of the final sea retreat from the North Alpine Foreland Basin (NAFB)
during the Burdigalian (Early Miocene) is hampered by a lack of reliable age constraints. In …

The Ottnangian stage represents the middle Burdigalian (c. 18.1–17.2 Ma) within the
regional stratigraphic concept for the Central Paratethys. The section Ottnang-Schanze in …

During the Ottnangian (early Miocene), the shallow epicontinental sea of the Upper Marine
Molasse in the Western and Central Paratethys realm experienced major sea-level …

Elasmobranch remains are quite common in Miocene deposits and were the subject of
numerous studies since the middle of the nineteenth century. Nevertheless, the taxonomic …

Abstract The North Alpine Foreland Basin (NAFB) experienced rapidly changing
palaeoenvironmental conditions at the end of the Early Miocene (middle-to-late Burdigalian …
