The depositional history of the Storfjorden and Kveithola trough-mouth fans (TMFs) in northwestern Barents Sea has been investigated within two coordinated Spanish Italian projects framework International Polar Year (IPY) Activity 367, NICE STREAMS. investigation conducted using a multidisciplinary approach to study sediment cores positioned on high-resolution multibeam bathymetry TOPAS/CHIRP sub-bottom profiles. Core correlation age model were based 27 AMS 14C samples, rock magnetic...
During the Eocene-Oligocene transition, Earth cooled significantly from a greenhouse to an icehouse climate. Nannofossil assemblages Southern Ocean sites enable evaluation of paleoceanographic changes and, hence, oceanic response Antarctic ice sheet evolution during Eocene and Oligocene. A combination environmental factors such as sea surface temperature nutrient availability is recorded by nannofossil can be interpreted responses following changes. cooling trend, started in Middle Eocene,...
Abstract Astronomical tuning of the Messinian pre‐salt succession in Levant Basin allows for first time reconstruction a detailed chronology salinity crisis ( MSC ) events deep setting and their correlation with marginal records that supports CIESM 3‐stage model. Our main conclusions are (1) were synchronous across basins, (2) onset basins occurred at 5.97 Ma, (3) only foraminifera‐barren, evaporite‐free shales accumulated settings between 5.60 (4) evaporites (anhydrite halite) deposition...
Abstract New magnetobiostratigraphic data for the late Oligocene through early Miocene at Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) Hole 516F provide a significantly revised age model, which permits reevaluation of developments that led to Mi‐1 glacial event Oligocene‐Miocene boundary. Our new high‐resolution paleomagnetic study, is supported by quantitative calcareous nannofossil and planktonic foraminiferal analyses, refines previous models sediments from DSDP 516F, with ages are systematically...
