Journal ArticleDOI

The Heartbeat of the Oligocene Climate System

TL;DR: A 13-million-year continuous record of Oligocene climate from the equatorial Pacific reveals a pronounced “heartbeat” in the global carbon cycle and periodicity of glaciations.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Cenozoic record of the equatorial Pacific carbonate compensation depth

Heiko Pälike, +70 more
- 30 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: A carbonate accumulation record that covers the past 53 million years from a depth transect in the equatorial Pacific Ocean is presented and large superimposed fluctuations in carbonate compensation depth are found during the middle and late Eocene.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-resolution carbon isotope records of the Aptian to Lower Albian from SE France and the Mazagan Plateau (DSDP Site 545): a stratigraphic tool for paleoceanographic and paleobiologic reconstruction

TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution carbon isotope stratigraphy is established for the Aptian to Lower Albian of the Vocontian Basin (SE France), and correlated to the carbon-isotope record of the Mazagan Plateau (DSDP Site 545).
Journal ArticleDOI

Forcing mechanisms for mid-Cretaceous black shale formation: evidence from the Upper Aptian and Lower Albian of the Vocontian Basin (SE France)

TL;DR: In this article, a model is proposed that explains the formation of mid-Cretaceous black shales through monsoonally driven changes in temperature and evaporation/precipitation patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI

Calibration of the random settling technique for calculation of absolute abundances of calcareous nannoplankton

TL;DR: In applying counting techniques with different equations for determining absolute abundances, it is discovered major anomalies in the calculated results that are interpreted as being due to the effect of convection currents within the device and the usage of elevated cover slides.
