Insights into pre-reversal paleosecular variation from stochastic models
To provide insights on the paleosecular variation of the geomagnetic field and the mechanism of reversals, long time series of the dipolar magnetic moment are generated by two different stochastic models, known as the “domino” model and the inhomogeneous Lebovitz disk dynamo model, with initial values taken from the paleomagnetic data. The former model considers mutual interactions of N macrosp...
متن کاملAnthracobunids from the Middle Eocene of India and Pakistan Are Stem Perissodactyls
Anthracobunidae is an Eocene family of large mammals from south Asia that is commonly considered to be part of the radiation that gave rise to elephants (proboscideans) and sea cows (sirenians). We describe a new collection of anthracobunid fossils from Middle Eocene rocks of Indo-Pakistan that more than doubles the number of known anthracobunid fossils and challenges their putative relationshi...
متن کاملA middle Eocene carbon cycle conundrum
1 The global carbon cycle The global carbon cycle encompasses the sum of processes that determine the amount of carbon within, and fluxes between, different carbon reservoirs on Earth (Fig. 1). These processes are quantitatively important on a range of timescales and can induce both short-term fluctuations and changes in steady-state conditions1–3. On timescales of up to centuries and thousands...
متن کاملLarger benthic foraminifera from the Middle Eocene
Larger benthic foraminifera (LBF) are common and diverse throughout the Paleogene sediments of southern Tanzania, but have previously been little studied. A recent programme of onshore drilling known as the Tanzania Drilling Project has recovered large proportion of this succession for palaeoclimatic and palaeontological study. The sediment is largely a hemipelagic clay with secondary gravity s...
متن کاملVariation in diversity among Laurales, Early Cretaceous to Present
Species accumulation and extinction both take time, and the asymmetry between the two processes has long been recognized (Darwin 1859). Darwin argued that complete extinction would take longer than species accumulation, except in the case of catastrophic mass extinctions. “There is reason to believe that the complete extinction of the species of a group is generally a slower process than their ...
