Annual Report Priabonian – 2006

Annual Report 2006 of the Bartonian/Priabonian Boundary Stratotype Working Group Studies in 2006 focused on the Alano di Piave section (Veneto region, NE Italy), the potential candidate for defining the GSSP of Middle/Upper Eocene, equated to the base of the Priabonian Stage. The Alano section, continuously exposed along the banks of the Calcino Creek, consists […]

Annual Report Priabonian – 2007

Annual Report 2007 of the Bartonian/Priabonian Boundary Stratotype Working Group Tasks of the Italian scientific community were to search for GSSPs of the Middle-Upper Eocene Transition. Investigations on both transitions have been undertaken by a number of researchers from several Italian Universities (i.e. Padua, Ferrara, Urbino, Milan) and CNR Institutes as well as from some […]

Annual Report Priabonian – 2008

Annual Report 2008 of the Bartonian/Priabonian Boundary Stratotype Working Group Tasks of the Italian scientific community were to search for GSSPs of the Middle-Upper Eocene and Lower-Upper Oligocene Transitions. Investigations on both transitions have been undertaken by a number of researchers from several Italian Universities (i.e. Padua, Ferrara, Florence, Urbino, Milan) and CNR Institutes as […]

Annual Report Priabonian – 2010

Annual Report 2010 of the Bartonian/Priabonian Boundary Stratotype Working Group The Italian scientific community was very active in 2010. Investigations on GSSPs of the Middle-Upper Eocene transition have been completed by a number of researchers from several Italian Universities (i.e. Padua, Ferrara, Florence, Urbino, Milan) and CNR Institutes as well as from some European and […]

Annual Report Priabonian – 2011

Annual Report 2011 of the Bartonian/Priabonian Boundary Stratotype Working Group The multidisciplinary studies on the Alano di Piave section (Veneto region, NE Italy), the potential candidate for defining the GSSP of the Middle/Upper Eocene, equated to the base of the Priabonian Stage, have been presented in an article entitled “Integrated bio-magnetostratigraphy of the Alano section […]

Annual Report Chattian – 2004

Annual Report 2004 of the Rupelian/Chattian Boundary Stratotype Working Group Investigations on the Lower-Upper Oligocene Transition are the subject of a paper, submitted to the Geological Society of American Bulletin, on “Integrated stratigraphy of the Oligocene pelagic sequence in the Umbria-Marche basin (Northeastern Apennines, Italy): A potential GSSP for the Rupelian/Chattian boundary” by Coccioni and […]

Annual Report Chattian – 2005

Annual Report 2005 of the Rupelian/Chattian Boundary Stratotype Working Group The paper on “Integrated stratigraphy of the Oligocene pelagic sequence in the Umbria-Marche basin (Northeastern Apennines, Italy): A potential GSSP for the Rupelian/Chattian boundary” by Coccioni and others, submitted to the Geological Society of American Bulletin for publication, was peer-reviewed. The first author and few […]
