Adercotryma kuhnti sp. nov., a Maastrichtian deep-water species from the Pacific Ocean, and evolution of the genus Adercotryma
Adercotryma glomeratum is one of the most geographically and bathymetrically widespread species of Recent deep-sea benthic foraminifera, but the evolutionary history of this distinct agglutinated species is poorly known. In addition to one or two Recent species probably closely related to A. glomeratum, the Eocene-Oligocene species Adercotryma agterbergi has been described, but we suggest that ...
متن کاملTectonic forcings of Maastrichtian ocean-climate evolution
A global compilation of deep-sea isotopic records suggests that Maastrichtian ocean-climate evolution was tectonically driven. During the early Maastrichtian the Atlantic intermediate-deep ocean was isolated from the Pacific, Indian, and Southern Oceans; deep water formed in the high-latitude North Atlantic and North Pacific. At the early/late Maastrichtian boundary a major reorganization of oc...
متن کاملCould the Late Permian deep ocean have been anoxic
Models ofocean circulation and biogeochemical cy les are used to speculate bout possible m chanisms of deep-sea anoxia across the Pertoo-Triassic boundary. Two modes of likely Late Permian ocean thermohaline circulation are identified: a vigorous "therm',d mode" driven by cooling in southern polar latitudes and aweaker "haline mode" driven by evaporation fromthe subtropics. We find that the the...
متن کاملDid Late Cretaceous cooling trigger the Campanian–Maastrichtian Boundary Event?
The Campanian–Maastrichtian (83–66 Ma) was a period of global climate cooling, featuring significant negative carbon-isotope (δ13C) anomalies, such as the Late Campanian Event (LCE) and the Campanian–Maastrichtian Boundary Event (CMBE). A variety of factors, including changes in temperature, oceanic circulation and gateway opening, have been invoked to explain these δ13C perturbations, but no p...
متن کاملA Late Cretaceous (maastrichtian) Avifauna from the Maevarano Formation, Madagascar
Recent field efforts in the Mahajanga Basin of northwestern Madagascar have recovered a diverse Late Cretaceous terrestrial and freshwater vertebrate fauna, including a growing diversity of avialans. Previous work on associated bird skeletons resulted in the description of two named avialans (Rahonavis, Vorona). Other materials, including two synsacra and numerous appendicular elements, represe...
