Neodymium and oxygen isotopic constraints on upper Ordovician paleoceanographic evolution across the Dubuque/Maquoketa contact in NE Iowa and SE Minnesota
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
brachiopods and authigenic phosphate were analyzed in selected samples to increase the number of temperature estimates and to assess the direction and possible magnitude of diagenetic overprinting. To determine if circulation fluctuated over the formational...
Temperature trends of the Late Cambrian through the Middle Ordovician : implications for Ordovician climate and biodiversification
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The Ordovician Period includes both the largest and longest period of sustained biodiversification--the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (GOBE)--and the second...
Late cretaceous ocean circulation in the south Atlantic and Pacific oceans
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Cooling during the last 15 million years of the Cretaceous is widely believed to have resulted in a reorganization of ocean circulation, with cooler periods being associated...
