Deep and ancient strata are significant successor fields for future oil and gas exploration.
Recently, a unit of thick high-quality interglacial black rock series was discovered between …

When Milankovitch cycles are preserved in the geologic record they provide a direct link
between chronometer and climate change, and thus a remarkable opportunity to constrain …

The Mesoproterozoic Eon [1,600–1,000 million years ago (Ma)] is emerging as a key interval
in Earth history, with a unique geochemical history that might have influenced the course of …

The mid-Proterozoic, spanning 1.8 to 0.8 billion years ago, is recognized as a phase of
marine anoxia, low marine primary productivity (MPP), and constrained eukaryotic …

The long-term history of the Earth–Moon system as reconstructed from the geological record
remains unclear when based on fossil growth bands and tidal laminations. A possibly more …

Cyclostratigraphy is an important observational window into the history of the Earth-Moon
system. However, there is limited information from the Mesoproterozoic era (1.0 to 1.6 billion …

Earth has a prolonged history characterized by substantial cycling of matter and energy
between multiple spheres. The production of organic carbon can be traced back to as early …

The geologic record of Milankovitch climate cycles provides a rich conceptual and temporal
framework for evaluating Earth system evolution, bestowing a sharp lens through which to …

We present statistical analysis of a compilation of observational constraints on the
Precambrian length of day and find that the day length stalled at about 19 h for about 1 …

The Earth's geologic record of Milankovitch cycles closely tracks Solar System solutions for
the past 50 million years. Prior to 50 million years ago (Ma), however, the solutions lose …
