A peat core from a raised bog in southern Sweden was examined (plant macrofossils, pollen/non-pollen microfossils, colorimetric humification, carbon/nitrogen ratios, bulk densities, loss on ignition) to investigate the ...

Fossil diatom assemblages in a sediment core from a small lake in Central Kamchatka (Russia) were used to reconstruct palaeoenvironmental conditions of the late Holocene. The waterbody may be a kettle lake that formed on ...

Primnoa resedaeformis is a deep-sea gorgonian coral with a two-part skeleton of calcite and gorgonin (a fibrillar protein), potentially containing long-term records of valuable paleo-environmental information. For various ...

The Sorachi Group, composed of Upper Jurassic ophiolite and Lower Cretaceous island-arc volcano-sedimentary cover, provides a record of Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous sedimentation and volcanism in an island-arc setting ...

Carbonatites in the western Transbaikalia rift area have a mid-Early Cretaceous age (130-120 Ma) and comprise lavas, tuffs, dikes, and veins, which are commonly associated with alkaline and subalkaline gabbroids and syenites. ...

Geotectonic reconstructions and the Rb-Hf-Ta relationship data on granitoids suggest that granitoids of the upper Amur region are products of the collision of the Amur Superterrane with the Siberian Craton. Late Jurassic-Early ...

Magmatic activity occurred in the Dzhida sector of the Western Transbaikalia rift zone from the Late Jurassic throughout the Early Cretaceous. The time interval of 159-100 Ma was marked by at least six pulses of magmatic ...
