A multi-million-year decrease in global temperatures during the Eocene was accompanied by large reorganisations to ocean circulation, chemistry and biological productivity. These changes culminated rapid growth of grounded ice on Antarctica Eocene–Oligocene climate transition (EOT), ?34 million years ago. However, while it is likely that environmental perturbations this magnitude altered oceani...

Abstract The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is currently undertaking a feasibility study to build the next-generation particle accelerator, named Future Circular Collider (FCC), hosted in 90–100 km subsurface infrastructure Geneva Basin, extending across western Switzerland and adjacent France. This article represents preliminary, basin-scale stratigraphic lithotype analysis ...

Mesacanthus is a common and speciose genus of acanthodian fish from Lower Old Red Sandstone and Middle Old Red Sandstone assemblages (representing the Lower Devonian and Middle Devonian respectively) and is well represented in many palaeoichthyology collections in the UK. Based upon descriptions given during the 19th century, specimens of the genus Mesacanthus from the Orcadian Basin and Midlan...

A detailed integrated stratigraphic study was carried out on middle Miocene fluvial successions of the Upper Freshwater Molasse (OSM) from the North Alpine Foreland Basin, in eastern Bavaria, Germany. The biostratigraphic investigations yielded six new localities thereby refining the OSM biostratigraphy for units C to E (sensu; Heissig, Actes du Congres BiochroM’97.

Shales contain magnetic minerals generally at very low concentrations. In the early stages of diagenesis, inherited are altered, while nanominerals formed. this study, we proposed a study shales over stratigraphic thickness 1.3 km from borehole in Paris basin (Borehole EST 433, France), and same formation (Opalinus Clay) collected seven boreholes Jura molasse (Swiss). Magnetic measurements expe...
