Stratigraphy, paleoceanography, and evolution of Cretaceous Pacific guyots: Relics from a greenhouse earth
Many guyots in the north Pacific are built of drowned Cretaceous shallow-water carbonates that rest on edifice basalt Dating of these limestones, using strontium- and carbon-isotope stratigraphy, illustrates a number of events in the evolution of these carbonate platforms: local deposition of marine...
