Astrochronology of the Early Turonian–Early Campanian terrestrial succession in the Songliao Basin, northeastern China and its implication for long-period behavior of the Solar System (2013, background): “Recently, Husson et al. (2011) estimated the ages and durations of each magnetochron from C32r.2r to C29n through cyclostratigraphic study of Late Campanian–Maastrichtian sedimentary successions from four ODP (Ocean Drilling Program) and DSDP (Deep Sea Drilling Program) holes.”
Time scale controversy: Accurate orbital calibration of the early Paleogene (2012, background): “…frameworks for the Paleocene and earliest Eocene [Dinarès-Turell et al., 2003; Lourens et al., 2005; Westerhold et al., 2008;Westerhold and Röhl, 2009] (65 to 52 Ma), as well as the Cretaceous [Sprovieri et al., 2006; Husson et al., 2011] are therefore based on the recognition of the 405-kyr cycle.”
Cyclostratigraphy and its revolutionizing applications in the earth and planetary sciences (2013, background): “For example, other extended signals from the Cretaceous include the following: CampanianMaastrichtian (Husson et al., 2011; Batenburg et al., 2012; Thibault et al., 2012); ConiacianSantonian (Locklair and Sageman, 2008); and Cenomanian-Santonian (Sprovieri et al., 2013).”
