Calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy and carbon-isotope stratigraphy on bulk organics of the middle-upper Eocene Souar Formation (Tunisia) allow for a refined this interval in southwestern Neo-Tethys margin. The represents deepest sedimentary deposits central northern Tunisian Basin was only dated previously by coarse data planktonic foraminifera. Together with our new data, correlation is pr...

Abstract During the Tertiary evolution of Western Mediterranean subduction system, a migrating foreland basin system developed between Maghrebian orogenic belt and adjacent African Craton. However, comprehensive reconstruction systems Rif Chain is still missing. By integrating field observations with quantitative biostratigraphic data from calcareous nannofossil assemblages, sandstone compositi...

The Faxe limestone quarry in eastern Denmark exposes Danian (Lower Paleocene) cool-water carbonate deposits. They constitute remnants of an apparent build-up that covers about 12 km2 today. deposits at are conspicuous due to their pronounced thickness coral relative the regional system. In quarry, scleractinian corals uniquely exposed up 30 m high mounds. rapid accumulation scleractinians combi...
