in this research, biostratigraphy and paleo-ecological reconstruction of the qom formation deposits in bijegan village, northeast ofdelijan, are discussed. the studied section is situated in the western margin of the urumieh-dokhtar magmatic arc (the intra-arc basin).the qom formation deposits at the studied area are rupelian-chattian in age. larger benthic foraminifers are used for biostratigr...

A broad compilation of modern carbon isotope compositions in all C3 plant types shows a monotonic increase in δ(13)C with decreasing mean annual precipitation (MAP) that differs from previous models. Corrections for temperature, altitude, or latitude are smaller than previously estimated. As corrected for altitude, latitude, and the δ(13)C of atmospheric CO(2), these data permit refined interpr...

The taxonomy, paleo-ecology and biogeography of the highly diverse "Cabarruyan" fauna are explored further. Eight species of three vetigastropod families are discussed here, one of which is described as new: Zeidora geigeri nov. spec. The other seven species were previously described from Recent material and three of these are also known from other fossil deposits. Most of the species still occ...

Original scientific paper Studies on the evolution of paleo-channels in coastal areas are important for submarine engineering construction and to reveal changes in the global paleoenvironment. Thus, to explore the characteristics of paleo-channels during the late Last Glaciation in the western South Yellow Sea, digital terrain analysis method and ArcGis river extraction function were employed, ...
