  • Available Generic Names for Trilobites
    AVAILABLE GENERIC NAMES FOR TRILOBITES P.A. JELL AND J.M. ADRAIN Jell, P.A. & Adrain, J.M. 30 8 2002: Available generic names for trilobites. Memoirs of the Queensland Museum 48(2): 331-553. Brisbane. ISSN0079-8835. Aconsolidated list of available generic names introduced since the beginning of the binomial nomenclature system for trilobites is presented for the first time. Each entry is accompanied by the author and date of availability, by the name of the type species, by a lithostratigraphic or biostratigraphic and geographic reference for the type species, by a family assignment and by an age indication of the type species at the Period level (e.g. MCAM, LDEV). A second listing of these names is taxonomically arranged in families with the families listed alphabetically, higher level classification being outside the scope of this work. We also provide a list of names that have apparently been applied to trilobites but which remain nomina nuda within the ICZN definition. Peter A.

  • Volume 144 Index
    Index to Volume 144 INDEX TO VOLUME 144 This index provides coverage for both the Initial Reports and Scientific Results portions of Volume 144 of the Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program. Refer- ences to page numbers in the Initial Reports are preceded by “A” with a colon (A:), and to those in the Scientific Results (this book), by “B” with a colon (B:). In addi- tion, reference to material on CD-ROM is shown as “bp:CD-ROM.” The index was prepared by Earth Systems, under subcontract to the Ocean Drill- ing Program. The index contains two hierarchies of entries: (1) a main entry, defined as a keyword or concept followed by a reference to the page on which that word or concept appears, and (2) a subentry, defined as an elaboration on the main entry fol- lowed by a page reference. The index is presented in two parts: (1) a Subject Index and (2) a Taxonomic Index. Both parts cover text, figures, and tables but not core-description forms (“barrel sheets”), core photographs, smear-slide data, or thin-section descriptions; these are given in the Initial Reports. Also excluded from the index are biblio- graphic references, names of individuals, and routine front and back matter. The Subject Index follows a standard format. Geographic, geologic, and other terms are referenced only if they are subjects of discussion. This index also includes broad fossil groups such as nannofossils and radiolarians. A site chapter in the Ini- tial Reports is considered the principal reference for that site and is indicated on the first line of the site’s listing in the index.

  • Cenozoic-Mesozoic-Paleozoic Integrated Stratigraphy and User- Generated Time Scale Graphics and Charts
    GeoArabia, Vol. 11, No. 3, 2006 Gulf PetroLink, Bahrain LETTER TO THE EDITOR hank you again for another outstanding issue of GeoArabia (vol. 11, no. 1, 2006). There is Tabsolutely no doubt that GeoArabia is the best stratigraphic journal in the world. This is for the simple reason that the geoscience described in this journal directly uses and directly refers to Stratigraphy in all its aspects and in a very comprehensive manner. The published papers are outstanding and serve the upstream industry, as well as scientific research and educational institutions. The International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) is presently working on improving the highly popular program Time Scale Creator (TS-Creator©) that can be downloaded freely from the ICS website. This data base is coordinated by Jim Ogg and the program was developed by Adam Lugowski. It provides large bio-, magneto-, chemo- and chrono-sequence stratigraphic charts for specific basins and specific time intervals. The ICS would like to extend this work to the Middle East basins by working closely with geoscientists from your region. In this regard we thank GeoArabia for explaining the studies conducted by the ICS to the Middle East geoscience community by publishing the feature on the ICS (vol. 11, no. 1, p. 159–160) and the following article. We look forward to hearing back from interested Middle East stratigraphers. Felix Gradstein Chair, International Commission on Stratigraphy TS-Creator© - Chronostratigraphic data base and visualisation: Cenozoic-Mesozoic-Paleozoic integrated stratigraphy and user- generated time scale graphics and charts Felix Gradstein and James Ogg Summary The International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) has produced an electronic version of the international standard Cenozoic-Mesozoic-Paleozoic bio-magneto-sequence, time-scale charts.

  • 4. Calibration of Miocene Nannofossil Events to Orbitally Tuned Cyclostratigraphies from Ceara Rise1
    Shackleton, N.J., Curry, W.B., Richter, C., and Bralower, T.J. (Eds.), 1997 Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program, Scientific Results, Vol. 154 4. CALIBRATION OF MIOCENE NANNOFOSSIL EVENTS TO ORBITALLY TUNED CYCLOSTRATIGRAPHIES FROM CEARA RISE1 Jan Backman2 and Isabella RafÞ3 ABSTRACT Ocean Drilling Program Site 926 sediments are well suited to serve as a reference section for calcareous nannofossil bio- stratigraphy from the low-latitude Atlantic Ocean in the 0- to 14-Ma time interval. Reasons include completeness in deposition and recovery, superbly resolved orbitally tuned chronologic control, generally good carbonate preservation, and the fact that this site represents a location where much evolution evidently occurred. Thirty-four nannofossil events, from the top of Cera- tolithus acutus to the top of Sphenolithus heteromorphus, have been investigated at 10-cm sample resolution (averaging 6 k.y.) in over 1400 samples from the earliest Pliocene (5.046 Ma) to the middle Miocene (13.523 Ma). These 34 events have been determined with an average chronological precision of ±7 k.y. This study emphasizes (1) the importance of quantitative approaches to determine time-dependent abundance variation of species to improve the understanding of paleoecologic responses of biostratigraphically useful species to variable and changing paleoenvironmental conditions; and (2) the importance of determining the smallest meaningful sampling interval to capture the Þnest details of the records of evolutionary emergence or extinction of species that are preserved in cores.

[email protected] 2 Institute of Biological Sciences, University of Tsukuba, 1-1-1 Tennodai, Tsukuba, 305- 8572 Ibaraki, Japan. [email protected] Summary Knowledge of the biology of coccolithophores has progressed considerably in re- cent years thanks to culture studies and meticulous observations of coccospheres in wild samples. It has been confirmed that holococcolithophores and other "anomalous" coccolithophores are not autonomous but stages in the life cycle of oceanic heterococcolithophores. The existence of such heteromorphic life cycles linking former "species" has far reaching consequences on the taxonomy and no- menclature of coccolithophores and should foster research on the environmental factors triggering phase changes. The cytological characteristics of coccolithopho- res are reviewed in detail with special attention to the cell covering, coccolitho- genesis and the specificity of appendages in this group.

  • Microfossils and Biostratigraphy
    Chapter 3 Microfossils and Biostratigraphy FIGURE 3.1. Four species of planktic foraminifers from the tropical western Atlantic: upper left: Globigerinoides ruber, upper right: Globigerinoides sacculifer, lower left: Globorotalia menardii, lower right: Neogloboquadrina dutertrei. Scale bar = 100 µm (100 µm = 0.1 mm). Photo courtesy of Mark Leckie. SUMMARY Microfossils are important, and in places the dominant constituents of deep sea sediments (see Chapter 2). The shells/hard parts of calcareous microfos- sils can be geochemically analyzed, for example by stable isotopes of oxygen and carbon, which are powerful proxies (indirect evidence) in paleocea- nography and climate change studies (see Chapter 6). Microfossil evolution Reconstructing Earth’s Climate History: Inquiry-Based Exercises for Lab and Class, First Edition. Kristen St John, R Mark Leckie, Kate Pound, Megan Jones and Lawrence Krissek. © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Published 2012 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. NAME has provided a rich archive for establishing relative time in marine sedi- mentary sequences. In this chapter you will gain experience using micro- fossil distributions in deep-sea cores to apply a biostratigraphic zonation and interpret relative age, correlate from one region of the world ocean to another, and calculate rates of sediment accumulation. In Part 3.1, you will learn about the major types of marine microfossils and their habitats; you will consider their role in primary productivity in the world oceans, their geologic record and diversity through time, as well as the relationship between microfossil diversity and sea level changes through time. In Part 3.2, you will explore microfossil distribution in a deep-sea core and consider microfossils as age indicators.
