  1. 1. The Greenhouse - Icehouse Transition : a dinoflagellate perspective

    Author : Caroline A. van Mourik; Henk Brinkhuis; Malgorzata Moczydlowska-Vidal; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : Eocene - Oligocene; dinoflagellate cysts; biostratigraphy; paleoecology; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Through the analysis of the stratigraphic and spatial distribution of organic walled dinoflagellate cysts (dinocysts) from climatologically and oceanographically key sites, this project aims to contribute to a better understanding of the Eocene-Oligocene (E/O) environmental changes and their timing. A central issue is to identify the global environmental changes which are responsible for the Eocene cooling and its underlying mechanisms with the focus on the Oligocene isotope-1 (Oi-1) event, thought to mark the onset of major Antarctic glaciation.

  2. 2. The Ediacaran Diversification of Organic-walled Microbiota : Ocean Life 600 Million Years Ago

    Author : Sebastian Willman; Małgorzata Moczydłowska-Vidal; John Peel; Shuhai Xiao; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Earth sciences; acritarchs; Ediacaran; Australia; biostratigraphy; microfossils; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : The only direct evidence of past life is provided by fossils. Fossils tell us about the evolution of life on Earth and they give us clues concerning ancient environments. The Ediacaran Period (roughly 635-542 million years ago) is characterised by the appearance and diversification of various microbiota and also the diversification of metazoans. READ MORE
