Cyclostratigraphy and Astrochronology in 2018 (2018)
Book Chapter
Hinnov, L. A. (2018). Cyclostratigraphy and Astrochronology in 2018. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (1-80). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.004

After more than a century of doubt and equivocation, cyclostratigraphy – the stratigraphic record of astronomically forced paleoclimatic change – has come to be widely accepted in the geosciences. Cyclostratigraphy depicts a paleoclimate system that... Read More about Cyclostratigraphy and Astrochronology in 2018.

Astronomical Time Scale for the Mesozoic (2018)
Book Chapter
Huang, C. (2018). Astronomical Time Scale for the Mesozoic. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (81-150). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.005

The astronomical theory and its application to sediment cyclostratigraphy have been widely studied over the past thirty years. Especially during the past decade, these have been successfully applied for a continuous high-resolution calibration of por... Read More about Astronomical Time Scale for the Mesozoic.

Muschelkalk Ramp Cycles Revisited (2018)
Book Chapter
Götz, A. E., & Török, Á. (2018). Muschelkalk Ramp Cycles Revisited. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (265-284). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.003

Anisian Muschelkalk ramp cycles are well documented from the northwestern Tethys shelf and its northern Peri-Tethys Basin by detailed studies in Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, and Hungary. High-resolution correlation based on cyclostratigraphy has... Read More about Muschelkalk Ramp Cycles Revisited.

Paleocene-Eocene Calcareous Nannofossil Biostratigraphy and Cyclostratigraphy From the Neo-Tethys, Pabdeh Formation of the Zagros Basin (Iran) (2018)
Book Chapter
Azami, S. H., Wolfgring, E., Wagreich, M., & Mahmudy Gharaie, M. H. (2018). Paleocene-Eocene Calcareous Nannofossil Biostratigraphy and Cyclostratigraphy From the Neo-Tethys, Pabdeh Formation of the Zagros Basin (Iran). In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (357-383). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.006

The Pabdeh Formation in the Zagros Basin, Iran, records cyclic pelagic sedimentation from the middle Paleocene to the middle Eocene in a Tethyan setting. The cyclic successions consist of deeper-water pelagic to hemipelagic shale, marl (stone) and li...

Mechanisms of Preservation of the Eccentricity and Longer-term Milankovitch Cycles in Detrital Supply and Carbonate Production in Hemipelagic Marl-Limestone Alternations (2018)
Book Chapter
Martinez, M. (2018). Mechanisms of Preservation of the Eccentricity and Longer-term Milankovitch Cycles in Detrital Supply and Carbonate Production in Hemipelagic Marl-Limestone Alternations. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (189-218). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.002

Eccentricity cycles often exert a strong influence on sedimentary series, while they only have weak powers in the insolation series. Three case studies previously published in Early Cretaceous hemipelagic marl-limestone alternations of the Tethyan ar...

Arabian Orbital Sequences (2018)
Book Chapter
Al-Husseini, M. (2018). Arabian Orbital Sequences. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (219-264). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.001

The orbital scale of glacio-eustasy adopts stratons as the fundamental time-rock units of sequence stratigraphy, numbers them as consecutive integers and approximates their duration as 405 kyr (Matthews and Al-Husseini, 2010). It predicts 12 stratons... Read More about Arabian Orbital Sequences.

The Down-dip Preferential Sequence Record of Orbital Cycles in Greenhouse Carbonate Ramps (2018)
Book Chapter
Bádenas, B., & Aurell, M. (2018). The Down-dip Preferential Sequence Record of Orbital Cycles in Greenhouse Carbonate Ramps. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (285-325). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.07.002

High-frequency sequences of different scales were recorded in the distinct carbonate ramps developed in the Iberian Basin (Spain) in the Jurassic times. This work reviews and compares the sedimentary record of these sequences in four Iberian carbonat...

Cyclostratigraphy of Shallow-Marine Carbonates – Limitations and Opportunities (2018)
Book Chapter
Strasser, A. (2018). Cyclostratigraphy of Shallow-Marine Carbonates – Limitations and Opportunities. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (151-187). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.07.001

The sedimentary record of ancient shallow-marine carbonate platforms commonly displays a stacking of different facies, which reflects repetitive changes of depositional environments through time. These changes can be induced by external factors such... Read More about Cyclostratigraphy of Shallow-Marine Carbonates – Limitations and Opportunities.
