History of the Mediterranean salinity crisis
Kenneth J. Hsü,Lucien Montadert,Daniel Bernoulli,Maria Bianca Cita,Albert Erickson,Robert E. Garrison,Robert B. Kidd,F. Melieres,Carla Müller,Ramil Wright +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a history of geodynamic evolution of the Mediterranean leading to the salinity crisis is outlined, based on the 'desiccated deep-basin model' and an accurate portrayal of the crisis is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology and genesis of nodular chalks and hardgrounds in the Upper Cretaceous of southern England
TL;DR: The Upper Cretaceous chalks of southern England are a thick sequence of rhythmically bedded, bioturbated coccolith micrites, deposited in an outer shelf environment in water depths which varied between 50 and 200-300 m as mentioned in this paper.

Diagenesis and interstitial-water chemistry at the Peruvian continental margin; major constituents and strontium isotopes
Miriam Kastner,Henry Elderfield,Jonathan B. Martin,Erwin Suess,Keith A. Kvenvolden,Robert E. Garrison +5 more
TL;DR: The most likely sources of these low-chloride fluids are gas hydrate dissociation and mineral (particularly clay) dehydration reactions as mentioned in this paper, which is consistent with the extent of dilution shown in the chloride profiles, the striking nonsteady-state depth profiles of chlorides at Sites 683 and 688 and of Sr/Sr ratios at Site 685, and the temperatures resulting from an average geothermal gradient of 50°C/km.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbonate Lithification on the Sea Floor
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that calcite can be precipitated chemically in seawater, and that carbonate sediments can become lithified on the sea floor, suggesting that such lithification occurs along profiles of sedimentational equilibrium.
