Re-assessment of ammonoid specimens from the Early Carboniferous Protocanites Beds of the Badenweiler-Lenzkirch Zone (Schwarzwald, Central Variscan Belt): Age constraints for a lithostratigraphic key bed (2021)
Journal Article
Montenari, Korn, D., & Montenari, M. (2023). Re-assessment of ammonoid specimens from the Early Carboniferous Protocanites Beds of the Badenweiler-Lenzkirch Zone (Schwarzwald, Central Variscan Belt): Age constraints for a lithostratigraphic key bed. Paläontologische Zeitschrift, 97(4), 761-768. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12542-021-00577-4

Abstract The Protocanites Beds of the Black Forest Massif (Germany) form an important lithostratigraphic key bed, as the index fossils contained in this formation enable correlation within large areas of the internal Zone of the central Variscan Belt...

Southern Ocean carbon sink enhanced by sea-ice feedbacks at the Antarctic Cold Reversal (2020)
Journal Article
Weber, M., Ellis, B., Thomas, Z., Montenari, M., Cage, A., Harris, M., …Rivera, A. (2020). Southern Ocean carbon sink enhanced by sea-ice feedbacks at the Antarctic Cold Reversal. Nature Geoscience, 489-497. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41561-020-0587-0

The Southern Ocean occupies some 14% of the planet’s surface and plays a fundamental role in the global carbon cycle and climate. It provides a direct connection to the deep ocean carbon reservoir through biogeochemical processes that include surface...

Computer modeling of Zircon (ZrSiO4)—Coffinite (USiO4) solid solutions and lead incorporation: Geological implications (2019)
Journal Article
Jackson, & Montenari. (2019). Computer modeling of Zircon (ZrSiO4)—Coffinite (USiO4) solid solutions and lead incorporation: Geological implications. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2019.08.005

The structure of zircon, ZrSiO4 is modeled using interatomic potentials. The uranium end-member, coffinite (USiO4) and intermediate solid solutions of zircon and coffinite (UxZr1–xSiO4) are then modeled, allowing the prediction of lattice parameters...
