This statement can be applied to many features of the Alpine region – to rivers, biodiversity, mountain forests, glaciers, the clean mountain air, air pollutants and also to the transport routes that run right across the Alps. Each project under the Alpine Space Programme addresses this fact by means of transboundary cooperation with as many partners as possible across the Alpine countries and thus makes a concrete contribution to transnational decision-making in line with national regulations. Silvia Reppe In my opinion, this mirrors the core principle of the Alpine Convention, Focal Point namely the joint contribution of all Alpine countries to protecting and Alpine Convention sustainably developing the region using a comprehensive policy. Germany We have placed this comprehensive approach at the heart of the program- Federal Ministry for me for the German presidency of the Alpine Convention for 2015–2016. the Environment, Concrete joint projects of the Alpine countries, in particular those falling Nature Conservation, under the Alpine Space Programme, are, for Germany, a valuable means Building and Nuclear of demonstrating the practical implementation of the Alpine Convention and Safety are important for awareness of the convention at local level. Therefore, our objective is to sustainably support the distribution and application of project results from the 2007–2013 funding period and to intensively use the possi- bilities of the INTERREG V B Alpine Space Programme 2014–2020 funding period for new projects. The good results achieved by projects such as GeoMol have impressively highlighted what the Alpine countries can achieve together. The conclusion I personally draw from this is that the Alpine Convention, contrary to the criticism often voiced, represents the solid foundations and well-functioning structures of this Alpine-wide cooperation. 4 The GeoMol Team (2015) Preface Preface from EuroGeoSurveys Among the most important challenges towards the further development of European society that the European Commission has prioritised are securing access to energy, water and natural resources, and the mitigation of natural hazards and climate change. In these domains the use of geological know- ledge and spatial information on the subsurface is crucial to assist stake- holders from policy, research and industry in implementing sustainable solutions. The long-term management of geological data and information systems is the core responsibility of any Geological Survey Organisation as the legal custodians of the subsurface, at national or regional levels. Since all GSOs a have a national rather than an overarching mandate, knowledge reposito- Koen Verbruggen ries and investigation activities are following separating political boundaries rather than connecting geological settings. Cross-border collaboration is not President yet common unless stimulated by European funding or legislation. EuroGeoSurveys Owing to EU cohesion policy, recently there are a number of cross-border projects geared towards interoperable, harmonised geoscientific informati-

Deep-water benthic foraminifera appear in lower Tithonian abyssal deposits lying above a barren interval of radiolarites in the Magura Basin (Western Carpathians). The analysis of morphogroups shows that the as- semblage is represented by increased globular chambered morphogroups of both agglutinated and calcareous benthic foraminifera and planoconvex calcareous benthic foraminifera. The composition of the benthic foraminiferal as- semblage points to a stressed setting particularly occurring in environments with increased organic flux and depleted oxygen in bottom and pore waters, as indicated by the scarcity of strictly epifaunal agglutinated foraminifera and

  • First Record of the Mediterranean Zonal Index Mesosimoceras Cavouri
    VOLUMINA JURASSICA, 2016, XIV: 145–154 DOI: First record of the Mediterranean zonal index Mesosimoceras cavouri (Gemmellaro, 1872) in the Upper Jurassic (Pseudomutabilis Zone, semicostatum γ horizon) of SW Germany and its stratigraphical significance Armin SCHERZINGER1, Günter SCHWEIGERT2, István FŐZY3 Key words: ammonites, Late Kimmeridgian, biostratigraphy, correlation, Germany, Spain. Abstract. The ammonite species Mesosimoceras cavouri (Gemmellaro), the index of the Mediterranean Cavouri Zone, is recorded for the first time from the Submediterranean Upper Jurassic of SW Germany. It occurs in the Untere-Felsenkalke Formation, within a rich am- monite association of the late Pseudomutabilis Zone characterized by fine-ribbed variants ofAulacostephanus pseudomutabilis (de Loriol) and a still undescribed flexuous-ribbed variant of Aulacostephanus eudoxus (d’Orbigny). This ammonite association represents the here newly introduced Lingulaticeras semicostatum γ horizon. The record of Mesosimoceras cavouri (Gemmellaro) confirms at least a partial correlation of the Mediterranean Cavouri Zone with the Submediterranen Pseudomutabilis Zone and the Subboreal Eudoxus Zone. INTRODUCTION the type locality of this taxon is situated at the eastern mar- gin of the Miocene Ries impact crater. According to Schneid Although the Upper Kimmeridgian of the Untere- (1914) the monotypic holotype was associated with Pseud­ Felsenkalke Formation (=Weißjura Delta) of Swabia has himalayites uhlandi (Oppel), hence the type horizon of Me­ been discussed in numerous publications (Aldinger, 1945; sosimoceras risgoviensis (Schneid) lies within the Early Ziegler, 1955a, b, 1957, 1958a, b, c, 1959a, b, 1962; Seeger, Kimmeridgian Divisum Zone. Wegele (1929, p. 38) discussed 1958, 1961), our present knowledge of the ammonites and this taxon in his monograph on the Oxfordian and the succession of ammonite faunas within this formation is Kimmeridgian ammonite fauna of Middle Franconia and still very incomplete.

  • Implications of the Ammonite Succession at the Turn of the Bimammatum and Planula Zones in the Wielun Upland, Central Poland
    acta geologica polonica Vol. 47, No. 1-2, pp. 77-105 Warszawa 1997 BRONISLAW ANDRZEJ MATYJA & ANDRZEJ WIERZBOWSKI The quest for a unified OxfordianlKimmeridgian boundary: implications of the ammonite succession at the turn of the Bimammatum and Planula Zones in the Wielun Upland, Central Poland ABSTRACT: The detailed biostratigraphic succession at the turn of the Bimammatum Zone and the Planula Zone in the WieluiJ. Upland, Central Poland, displays the five ammonite hori­ zons, viz. the litocerum horizon and the broilii horizon in the Hauffianum Subzone of the Bimammatum Zone, and the minutum horizon, the proteron horizon, and the planula horizon, in the Planula Zone. The stratigraphic position of the Amoeboceras Layer (MAlYJA & WIFRZBOWSKI 1988) has been partly revised: it lies in the litocerum horizon of the Hauffianum Subzone of the Bimammatum Zone. The layer marks a short-time invasion of the BorealISubboreal ammonites into the Submediterranean Province, including such fonns described previously as Amoeboceras (Plasmatites) bauhini (OPPEL), A. (P.) praebauhini (SALFElD), and A. (P.) lineatum (QUENSTEDT), as well as the recently discovered Pictonia den­ sicostata Bu~ and Prorasenia bowerbanki SPATII. The presence of these ammonites, and especially of P. densicostata, shows that the lower boundary of the Subboreal Kimm.eridgian corresponding to the base of the Baylei Zone, lies not higher than the litocerum horizon of the Hauffianum Subzone in the Submediterranean Succession; in fact, it may lie still lower, some­ where between an upper Bimammatum Subzone and a lower Hauffianum Subzone of the Bimammatum Zone. Precise location of the lower boundary of the Submediterranean Kimm.eridgian, corresponding to the base of the Platynota Zone, is not possible in the Subboreal Succession; that boundary in the Boreal Succession lies at the base of the Kitchini Zone.
