The Mediterranean climate and its variability depend on global-scale climate patterns. Close
correlations appear when comparing Holocene palaeoenvironmental data (lake levels …

New micropaleontological, palynological, and geochemical results from a relatively shallow
(∼ 500 m) sediment core (NS-14) in the south-eastern Aegean Sea provide a detailed …

Pliocene–Quaternary sapropels of the Mediterranean Sea and mid-Cretaceous black shales
share many distinctive properties. Organic carbon concentrations that often exceed 5% in …

High-resolution palaeoenvironmental changes, corresponding to a mean time interval of
450 years covering the last 48,000 years, were examined in a core from the Cretan Basin in …

Quantitative analyses of coccolithophores, planktonic foraminifers, dinoflagellate cysts and
pollen assemblages were carried out on shallow (NS-14) and deeper (NS-40) sediment …

Clastic mud beds rich in continental organic matter are observed recurrently in the Nile deep-
sea turbidite system. They formed during flooding periods of the river similar to those that …

A detailed integrated stratigraphic framework for the last 40 ka in the eastern Tyrrhenian Sea
(central Mediterranean) was obtained through quantitative analyses of planktonic …

Over the past 13 ka, the hydrology for the southeastern Mediterranean was mainly regulated
by Nile River runoff, which in turn was controlled by climate forcing. Being affected by orbital …

A very detailed environmental history of the last deglaciation and the Holocene is recorded
in a high sedimentation rate core collected in the Southern Adriatic Sea (Core AD91-17) …

Quantitative analyses of planktic foraminifera, sea‐surface temperatures (SSTs), oxygen
isotope and radiocarbon dating from a deep‐sea core recovered in the South Adriatic Sea …
