Mantle processes control plate tectonics and exert an influence on biogeochemical cycles. However, the proportion of mantle sampled in-situ is minimal, as it buried beneath igneous crust sediments. Here we report lithological characteristics two sections from embryonic ocean drilled by International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) in Tyrrhenian Sea. Contrary to at Mid Ridges (MORs) hyperextended passive margins, our findings reveal exceptionally heterogeneous fertile lithologies, ranging...
Abstract At the Eocene–Oligocene transition (EOT), c . 34.44–33.65 Ma, Earth's climate shifted from ‘greenhouse’ to ‘icehouse’ conditions. This change coincides with first continental ice growth on Antarctica, global cooling, and widespread overturning of faunal floral assemblages. Studies have focused timing mechanism larger foraminiferal extinctions across EOT, but there has been little work surviving taxa. Reticulate Nummulites are a morphologically distinctive biostratigraphically...
