Cretaceous eustasy revisited
Bilal U. Haq,Bilal U. Haq +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new terminology for local/regional or relative sea-level changes ( eurybatic shifts) is proposed to distinguish them from global ( eustatic ) sea-Level changes, with the observation that all measures of sealevel change in any given location are euryBatic, even when they include a strong global signal.

Rudists and carbonate platforms in the Aptian: a case study on biotic interactions with ocean chemistry and climate
Peter W. Skelton,Eulàlia Gili +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the Aptian carbonate platform growth and associated turnover among rudists and synthesized the results with evidence for climate change to yield an explanatory model.

Salt tectonics on passive margins: examples from Santos, Campos and Kwanza basins
David G. Quirk,Niels H. Schødt,Birgitte Lassen,Steven J. Ings,Dan Hsu,Katja K. Hirsch,Christina Von Nicolai +6 more
TL;DR: In the Santos, Campos and Kwanza basins, this outer high is represented by an embryonic mid-Atlantic ridge, amplified in height by the differential weight of the inflating salt as mentioned in this paper.

Morphological patterns of Aptian Lithocodium–Bacinella geobodies: relation to environment and scale
TL;DR: In this paper, a platform-wide comparison of Lithocodium-Bacinella geobodies and morphotypes from the Sultanate of Oman is presented and placed in its environmental, bathymetric and physiographic context.
