Journal ArticleDOI
Chronology, causes and progression of the Messinian salinity crisis
TL;DR: The authors presented an astronomically calibrated chronology for the Mediterranean Messinian age based on an integrated high-resolution stratigraphy and tuning of sedimentary cycle patterns to variations in the Earth's orbital parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid acidification of the ocean during the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum.
James C Zachos,Ursula Röhl,Stephen A. Schellenberg,Appy Sluijs,David A. Hodell,Daniel Clay Kelly,Ellen Thomas,Ellen Thomas,Micah J Nicolo,Isabella Raffi,Lucas Joost Lourens,Heather K McCarren,Dick Kroon +12 more
TL;DR: Geochemical data from five new South Atlantic deep-sea sections indicate that a large mass of carbon dissolved in the ocean at the Paleocene-Eocene boundary and that permanent sequestration of this carbon occurred through silicate weathering feedback.
Journal ArticleDOI
Astronomical pacing of late Palaeocene to early Eocene global warming events
Lucas Joost Lourens,Appy Sluijs,Dick Kroon,James C Zachos,Ellen Thomas,Ellen Thomas,Ursula Röhl,Julie Bowles,Isabella Raffi +8 more
TL;DR: A distinct carbonate-poor red clay layer in deep-sea cores from Walvis ridge is reported, which is term the Elmo horizon, which has similar geochemical and biotic characteristics as the Palaeocene–Eocene thermal maximum, but of smaller magnitude, suggesting that it represents a second global thermal maximum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Neogene chronology: New perspectives in high-resolution stratigraphy
William A. Berggren,Frederik J Hilgen,Cor G. Langereis,Dennis V. Kent,J. D. Obradovich,Isabella Raffi,Maureen E. Raymo,N. J. Shackleton +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated geochronology for late Neogene time (Pliocene, Pleistocene, and Holocene Epochs) is presented based on an analysis of data from stable isotopes, magnetostratigraphy, radiochronology, and calcareous plankton biostrigraphy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of calcareous nannofossil astrobiochronology encompassing the past 25 million years
Isabella Raffi,Jan Backman,Eliana Fornaciari,Heiko Pälike,Domenico Rio,Lucas Joost Lourens,Frits Hilgen +6 more
TL;DR: A review of recent to late Oligocene calcareous nannofossil datum events can be found in this article, where a taxonomy of the index taxa and their biostratigraphic usefulness is presented.
