...…Roveri, M., et al., The Messinian Salinity Crisis: Pa (2014), http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.margeo.2014.02.002 clearly show obliquity controlled glacial cycles in the interval ranging from ~6.3 to 5.5Ma, and the onset of theMSC closely coincideswith glacial stage TG32 at 5.97 Ma (Manzi et al., 2013)....

...Monticino (Vena del Gesso basin, Italy) is another well-studied MSC section where a complete integratedstratigraphic study of the transition interval to the PLG unit was performed (Marabini and Poluzzi, 1977; Marabini and Vai, 1988; Krijgsman et al., 1999b)....

...The 5.96 0.02 Ma age for the MSC-onset is based on the lithological transition from pre-evaporitic sapropel-marl-diatomite successions to the base of the LE (Krijgsman et al., 1999a, 2004; Sierro et al., 2001)....

...The Monticino section was also studied for integrated stratigraphic purposes (Krijgsman et al., 1999b; Roveri et al., 2006), although major tectonic complications (e.g. shearplanes) in the pre-evaporitic succession hampered a detailed correlation to the astronomical target curve....
