Mesozoic calcareous nannoplankton biostratigraphy of marine sediments
TLDR
In this article, the effects of differential solution and diagenetic calcification reveal a considerable morphologic variability within numerous species and the available information is incorporated into a stratigraphic scale allowing correlation over wide distances and across paleoprovincial boundaries.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Chronology of fluctuating sea levels since the triassic.
TL;DR: An effort has been made to develop a realistic and accurate time scale and widely applicablechronostratigraphy and to integrate depositional sequences documented in public domain outcrop sections from various basins with this chronostratigraphic framework.
Book ChapterDOI
Stratigraphy, Geochemistry, and Paleoceanography of Organic Carbon-Rich Cretaceous Sequences
TL;DR: The Cretaceous is characterized by unusually widespread distribution of "black shales" as discussed by the authors, sequences of variable lithology containing numerous beds with organic-carbon (OC) contents in excess of 1 percent by weight.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nannofossils and superplumes: The Early Aptian “nannoconid crisis”
TL;DR: A group of calcareous nannoplankton named nannoconids experienced a crisis in the early Aptian and recovered only later in the late Aptians after a period of virtual absence as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Jurassic to Paleogene: Part 2 Paleogene geochronology and chronostratigraphy
TL;DR: In this article, a revised geochronology based upon a best fit to selected high temperature radiometric dates on a number of identified magnetic polarity chrons (within the late Cretaceous, Paleogene and Neogene) which minimizes apparent acceleration in sea-floor spreading is presented.
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.

The distribution of oceanic coccolithophorids in the Pacific
Hisatake Okada,Susumu Honjo +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the horizontal and vertical distribution of oceanic coccolithophorids along five traverses in the North and Central Pacific, and identified 90 species of the coccolitophoridae.

Modern coccolithophoridae of the atlantic ocean—I. Placoliths and cyrtoliths
Andrew McIntyre,Allan W. H. Bé +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that living species of Coccolithophoridae have slightly broader distributional ranges than those preserved in oceanic sediments, attributed to rapid warming of the Atlantic since the last glacial age.

World-Wide Correlation of Mesozoic Magnetic Anomalies, and Its Implications
Roger L. Larson,Walter C. Pitman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived a magnetic reversal model for the Hawaiian lineation set and used this model to correlate the entire Hawaiian and Keathley lineation sets to the entire North Atlantic.
Journal ArticleDOI
A revised time scale of magnetic reversals for the Early Cretaceous and Late Jurassic
TL;DR: In this paper, a magnetic reversal block model for the Early Cretaceous-Late Jurassic period was developed from four closely spaced profiles across the Hawaiian lineation pattern by Hilde et al.
