Terra Nova, 22, 155–165, 2010 Abstract Sequence stratigraphy in the hinterland, kinematic
analysis of thin‐skinned thrusting in the foreland and thermochronological tracking of …

This review aims to present an updated lithostratigraphic framework of the northern Danube
Basin in Slovakia, consistent with recent shifts in geochronology and depositional system …

A comprehensive “model” of the semi-closed Central Paratethys Sea history was proposed
for the entire time span of 25 Ma. Publications and datasets of the last decades were …

A new and precisely defined chronometric subdivision of the Badenian (Middle Miocene,
regional stage of Central Paratethys) is proposed. This uses global events, mainly …

Depositional sequences originating in semi-enclosed basins with endemic biota, partly or
completely isolated from the open ocean, frequently do not allow biostratigraphic …

The sulfur cycle influences the respiration of sedimentary organic matter, the oxidation state
of the atmosphere and oceans, and the composition of seawater. However, the factors …

Massive evaporites were deposited in the Central European Paratethys Sea during the
Badenian salinity crisis (BSC). The scarcity of absolute age data has hampered a thorough …

Marine gateways prove to be important factors for changes in the ecology and biochemistry
of marginal seas. Changes in gateway configuration played a dominant role in the Middle …

In comparison to biodiversity on Earth's surface, subterranean biodiversity has largely
remained concealed. The olm (Proteus anguinus) is one of the most enigmatic extant cave …

From the Oligocene onwards, the complex tectonic evolution of the Africa–Eurasia collision
zone led to paleogeographic and biogeographic differentiation of the Mediterranean and …
