The Quaternary vertebrate fauna of cave deposits of the Podillia-Bukovynian Karst-Speleological Area (Western Ukraine) (2022)
Book Chapter
Ridush, B. (2022). The Quaternary vertebrate fauna of cave deposits of the Podillia-Bukovynian Karst-Speleological Area (Western Ukraine). In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (157-219). Elsevier

The Podillia-Bukovinian Karst-Speleological Area is rich in numerous caves of karst, suffosion, and weathering origin. The gypsum karst is the most widespread in the area. It is famous for the World's largest maze-caves in gypsum. Some of these caves...

An overview of the geology of paleoanthropological and archaeological sites of South Africa (2022)
Book Chapter
Makhubela, T. V., & Mavuso, S. S. (2022). An overview of the geology of paleoanthropological and archaeological sites of South Africa. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (221-268). Elsevier

Paleoanthropological and archaeological remains in South Africa are found in various sites formed in diverse environments of caves, rock shelters and open-air settings. These sites contain deposits dating back mainly to the Quaternary, but also exten... Read More about An overview of the geology of paleoanthropological and archaeological sites of South Africa.

An outline of geochemical proxies used on marine sediments deposited during the Quaternary Period (2022)
Book Chapter
Banerji, U. S., Batuk Joshi, K., Pandey, L., & Prakash Dubey, C. (2022). An outline of geochemical proxies used on marine sediments deposited during the Quaternary Period. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (1-35). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2022.09.002

The sediments have been a ubiquitous archive for paleoclimate reconstruction while the marine sediments are considered to be serene and mostly undisturbed from anthropogenic encroachments. Unlike continental records, the deep-sea sediments elucidated... Read More about An outline of geochemical proxies used on marine sediments deposited during the Quaternary Period.

The latest European record of Chasmaporthetes lunensis lunensis (Del Campana, 1914) from Schernfeld (Bavaria, Germany) in terms of the changes in the European carnivore paleoguilds (2022)
Book Chapter
Marciszak a, A., Gornig a, W., Kropczyk a, A., & Rössner, G. E. (2022). The latest European record of Chasmaporthetes lunensis lunensis (Del Campana, 1914) from Schernfeld (Bavaria, Germany) in terms of the changes in the European carnivore paleoguilds. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (137-156). Elsevier

The hyaena Chasmaporthetes lunensis lacks the robust and hyper-robust dentition of its bone-cracking relatives. Its gracile skeleton reflects an adaption to fast running and chasing down prey. The species was widespread on the northern hemisphere thr...

Book Chapter
Sabine-Lamoureux, M. E., Eynaud, F., Zaragosi, S., Giraudeau, J., Debret, M., Rossignol-Malaize, L., …Garlan, T. (2022). Stratigraphy in the Greenland/Iceland/Norwegian (GIN) seas: A multiproxy approach on Pleistocene sediments. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (37-80). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2022.09.004

A multiproxy sedimentological study was conducted on five sediment cores retrieved between 67 and 79°N in the Greenland/Iceland/Norwegian seas in order to infer a common chronostratigraphic model for the selected cores. This model is based on the use... Read More about Stratigraphy in the Greenland/Iceland/Norwegian (GIN) seas: A multiproxy approach on Pleistocene sediments.

New lithostratigraphic nomenclature of Neogene rock units in As-Sahabi area, Sirt Basin, northeast Libya (2022)
Book Chapter

This paper reviews the lithostratigraphic nomenclature of Neogene formal and informal rock units in the As-Sahabi area of northeast Libya. Formally-named lithostratigraphic units are modified whereas informal units are re-designated and given new nam...

Quaternary Palynostratigraphy of Germany with special emphasis on the Late Pleistocene (2022)
Book Chapter
Stojakowits, P., & Mayr, C. (2022). Quaternary Palynostratigraphy of Germany with special emphasis on the Late Pleistocene. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (81-136). Elsevier

Here, we summarize and review the current state of knowledge on Quaternary palynostratigraphy in Germany. Our focus is especially on the Pleistocene and a comparison between northern and southern Germany, while we consider the Holocene only marginall...
