A high-resolution stable isotopic record from the Junggar Basin (NW China) : implications for the paleotopographic evolution of the Tianshan Mountains by Charreau, Julien, Kent-Corson, Malinda Louise, Barrier, Laurie, Augier, Romain, Ritts, Bradley D., Chen, Yan, France-Lannord, Christian, Guilmette, Caroline

“…These sections expose remarkable outcrops of Junggar foreland basin sediments that have been previously dated by high-resolution magnetostratigraphy to between ∼23.6 and ∼1 Ma, and ∼10.5 and ∼3.1 Ma. …”

Assessing environmental change associated with early Eocene hyperthermals in the Atlantic Coastal Plain, USA by W. Rush, W. Rush, J. Self-Trail, Y. Zhang, A. Sluijs, H. Brinkhuis, H. Brinkhuis, J. Zachos, J. G. Ogg, J. G. Ogg, J. G. Ogg, M. Robinson

“…This study identifies two events, namely the Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 (ETM2 and H2), in shallow marine sediments of the Eocene-aged Salisbury Embayment of Maryland, based on magnetostratigraphy, calcareous nannofossil, and dinocyst biostratigraphy, as well as the recognition of negative stable carbon isotope excursions (CIEs) in biogenic calcite. …”

A comprehensive construction of the domain ontology for stratigraphy by Huiqing Xu, Yingying Zhao, Hao Huang, Shaochun Dong, Yukun Shi, Chunju Huang, Huaichun Wu, Zhiqi Qian, Qiang Fang, Huaguo Wen, Zhongtang Su, Shuang Dai, Ronghua Wang, Chao Li, Chao Sun, Junxuan Fan

“…Consequently, seven ontologies are constructed for major stratigraphic branches, i.e., Lithostratigraphy, Biostratigraphy, Chronostratigraphy, Chemostratigraphy, Magnetostratigraphy, Cyclostratigraphy and Sequence Stratigraphy. …”

Fluvio-deltaic record of increased sediment transport during the Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO), Southern Pyrenees, Spain by S. Peris Cabré, S. Peris Cabré, L. Valero, J. E. Spangenberg, A. Vinyoles, J. Verité, J. Verité, T. Adatte, M. Tremblin, S. Watkins, N. Sharma, M. Garcés, C. Puigdefàbregas, S. Castelltort

“…To test this hypothesis, we measured the stable-isotope composition of carbonates (<span class="inline-formula"><i>δ</i>¹³C</span><span class="inline-formula">_carb</span> and <span class="inline-formula"><i>δ</i>¹⁸O</span><span class="inline-formula">_carb</span>) and organic matter (<span class="inline-formula"><i>δ</i>¹³C</span><span class="inline-formula">_org</span>) of 257 samples in two sections of SPFB fluvial–deltaic successions covering the different phases of the MECO and already dated with magnetostratigraphy. We find a negative shift in <span class="inline-formula"><i>δ</i>¹⁸O</span><span class="inline-formula">_carb</span> and an unclear signal in <span class="inline-formula"><i>δ</i>¹³C</span><span class="inline-formula">_carb</span> around the transition from magnetic chron C18r to chron C17r (middle Bartonian). …”

“…Multiple complementary studies are currently underway and preliminary results promise an astronomically calibrated biostratigraphy, magnetostratigraphy, and chemostratigraphy for the combined Prees and Mochras successions as well as insights into the dynamics of background processes and major palaeo-environmental changes.…”
