Analisi biostratifrafiche e paleoecologiche delle associazioni a nannofossili calcarei del Paleocene superiore-Eocene inferiore (Site U1409 Newfoundland Ridge, NW Atlantico).
This Master thesis aims to carry out biostratigraphic studies and analyse calcareous nannofossil assemblages from late Paleocene to early Eocene sediments recovered during IODP Expedition 342. In particular, the study material comes from Site 1409 (Hole A, B, C). During the preliminary phase of this...
