The base of the Rhaetian stage (Norian/Rhaetian boundary, NRB) is still awaiting formal designation by International Commission on Stratigraphy. At present, only 4.30-m-thick Steinbergkogel section (Austria) has been proposed as GSSP (Global Stratotype Section and Point) candidate for Rhaetian. Here we present data from 63-m-thick Pignola-Abriola (Southern Apennines, Italy) that consider an alternative GSSP. basinal section, represented hemipelagic–pelagic carbonate successions belonging to...

Abstract The latest Triassic was characterised by protracted biotic extinctions concluding in the End-Triassic Extinction (~ 200 Ma) and a global carbon cycle perturbation. onset of declining diversity is closely related to reducing conditions that spread globally from upper Sevatian (uppermost Norian) across Norian-Rhaetian boundary, likely triggered unusually high volcanic activity. We correlate significant organic perturbations an increase CO 2 ocean–atmosphere system, outgassed...
Abstract The onset of the Acheulean, marked by emergence large cutting tools (LCTs), is considered a major technological advance in Early Stone Age and key turning point human evolution. Acheulean originated East Africa at ~ 1.8–1.6 Ma reported South between 1.6 > 1.0 Ma. timing its appearance development North have been poorly known due to near-absence well-dated sites reliable contexts. 1 stone artefacts Tighennif (Algeria) Thomas Quarry I-Unit L (ThI-L) Casablanca (Morocco) are thus...
Abstract. We investigated the geochemical and rock magnetic properties of magnetostratigraphically calibrated Pignola–Abriola section (Italy) in order to understand climatic perturbations that characterize late Norian–early Rhaetian interval (Late Triassic). performed experiments on anhysteretic isothermal remanence (ARM IRM) susceptibility (χ) obtain parameters necessary for our paleoclimatic investigation. An episode increase relative quantity hematite, suggesting enhanced subaerial...
A global carbon-isotope curve for the Late Triassic has potential correlations and new insights on complex extreme environmental changes that took place in this time interval. We reconstruct δ13Corg profile late Norian, improving sparse published data from North American successions depict a "chaotic interval" with rapid oscillations. In context, we studied three sections outcropping Lagonegro Basin (southern Italy), originally located western Tethys. The profiles show four negative...
Background and scope: The late Villafranchian large mammal age (~2.0–1.2 Ma) of the Early Pleistocene is a crucial interval time for mammal/hominin migrations faunal turnovers in western Eurasia. However, an accurate chronological framework Balkans adjacent territories still missing, preventing pan-European biogeographic correlations schemes. In this article, we report first detailed scheme southeastern Europe through comprehensive multidisciplinary dating approach (biochronology,...
By applying advanced spatial statistical methods, taphonomy complements the traditional taphonomic approach and enhances our understanding of biostratinomic diagenetic processes. In this study, we elaborate on a specific aspect – anisotropy We aim to unravel history Early Pleistocene vertebrate assemblage Tsiotra Vryssi (Mygdonia Basin, Greece). Circular statistics are used for fabric analysis elongated elements; geostatistics (directional variograms), wavelet point pattern analyses applied...
