Palaeoclimatic Events
(Elsevier, 2009)
Neoproterozoic palaeoclimate in the Río de la Plata Craton (RPC) can be understood in terms of a warm, possibly tropical, “background” climate punctuated by several cold or even glacial events. Evidences of a dominantly ...
Palaeoecological context for the extinction of the Neanderthals: A small mammal study of Stratigraphic Unit V of the El Salt site, Alcoi, eastern Spain
(Elsevier Science, 2021-04)
El Salt is an important reference site for understanding the extinction of Neanderthal populations in the eastern Iberian Peninsula during MIS 3. In this paper, we describe the small mammal assemblage from Stratigraphic ...
Structure of a corystosperm fossil forest from the Late Triassic of Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2007-01)
A palaeoecological study of a standing Late Triassic forest containing 150 silicified stumps from the Río Blanco Formation of Mendoza province, Argentina is described. A mapped portion of the forest floor provides quantitative ...
Crayfish burrows from Late Jurassic-Late Cretaceous continental deposits of Patagonia: Argentina. Their palaeoecological, palaeoclimatic and palaeobiogeographical significance
(Elsevier Science, 2008-01)
The trace fossil, Loloichnus baqueroensis igen. and isp. nov., from Late Jurassic-Late Cretaceous continental deposits of Patagonia, Argentina, includes thickly lined, mostly passively-filled, and Y-branched burrows. Other ...
Palaeoecological context for the extinction of the Neanderthals: A small mammal study of Stratigraphic Unit V of the El Salt site, Alcoi, eastern Spain
(Elsevier Science, 2019-09)
El Salt is emerging as a reference site for the study of the extinction of Neanderthal populations in the Eastern Iberian Peninsula during MIS 3. The small vertebrate assemblage analysed in this work is framed within this ...
Paleoenvironmental reconstruction of the semi-arid Chaco region of Argentina based on multiproxy lake records over the last six hundred years
(Elsevier, 2019-06)
In this paper, we analyze the paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental evolution of Laguna Yema in semi-arid Chaco region of Argentina over the past six hundred years. High resolution multiproxy studies of lake sediments utilize ...
Tempskya in the Valanginian of South America (Mulichinco Formation, Neuquén Basin, Argentina) - Systematics, palaeoclimatology and palaeoecology
(Elsevier Science, 2015-08)
New specimens of the tree fern Tempskya are described from the Mulichinco Formation (Valanginian), Neuquén Basin, Argentina. Tempskya is a genus for permineralized false fern trunks. This extinct genus had a wide distribution ...
Palaeoenvironmental and climatic significance of the Puesto Almada Member (Upper Jurassic, Cañadón Asfalto Formation), at the Fossati sub-basin, Patagonia Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2013-08)
Six facies associations are described for the Puesto Almada Member at the Cerro Bandera locality (Fossati subbasin). They correspond to lacustrine, palustrine, and pedogenic deposits (limestones); and subordinated alluvial ...
Global connections between aeolian dust, climate and ocean biogeochemistry at the present day and at the last glacial maximum
(Elsevier Science, 2010-06)
Palaeo-dust records in sediments and ice cores show that wind-borne mineral aerosol ('dust') is strongly linked with climate state. During glacial climate stages, for example, the world was much dustier, with dust fluxes ...
