R. 1991. Paleoceanography and Rotational Block Faultinf in<br />

the Jurassic Carbonate Series of the Chiemgau Alps (Bavaria).<br />

Facies, 24, 1-24.<br />

The Jurassic carbonate series of the Lechtal and Allgau Nappes<br />

in the central part of the Northern Calcareous Alps reflect formation<br />

of orogen-parallel structures with swells and basins. Regional facies<br />

patterns display the morphologies of the various depositional<br />

environments.<br />

During the Middle Jurassic, an elongated swell evolved parallel<br />

to the overall structural strike in the central part of Lechtal Nappe,<br />

while in the southern part a basin started to subside. This<br />

configuration reflects the initial stage of rotational block faulting on<br />

the southern continental margin of the Tethys. Similar structural and<br />

facies settings were also established in the northern part of the<br />

Lechtal Nappe and in the southern Allgau Nappe. Synsedimentary<br />

tectonics induced a variety of downslope sediment mass movements<br />

and increased facies differentiation on the slopes. In the upper<br />

section of the middle Jurassic sequences red nodular limestones<br />

with frequent intercalations of intraformational breccias and<br />

conglomerates indicate downslope sediment movements.<br />

During the Oxfordian, the Tethyan-wide deposition of<br />

radiolarites also covered the basin in the southern Lechtal Nappe.<br />

Contemporaneous deposition of pelagic <strong>radiolaria</strong>n bearing<br />

limestones dominated on the slope of the surrounding northern swell,<br />

while its peak was covered by a shallow water carbonate facies, e.g.<br />

a specific pseudopeloid and oolithic facies, which was also injected<br />

downslope into the pelagic facies.<br />

The Oxfordian to Tithonian section reveals a characteristic<br />

pelagic carbonate facies succession, e.g. with Protoglobigerina<br />

facies at the base, followed by a Saccocoma facies and a<br />

calpionellids facies on top. In the northern Lechtal Nappe and in the<br />

Allgau Nappe various similar radiolarite basins with intersected<br />

swells were discovered.<br />

the composition of particulate organic matter in the Weddell-<br />

Scotia Sea during spring 1988. Marine Chem., 35, 435-447.<br />

During EPOS 2 (European Polarstern Study, leg 2, 26 November<br />

1988-5 January 1989 the distribution of biogenic silica (BSi) was<br />

determined from the surface to 600 m along two transects (49 o W<br />

and 47 o W) spanning the Scotia Sea; the Weddell-Scotia Confluence<br />

(WSC) and the marginal ice zone (MIZ) of the Weddell Sea.<br />

Parliculate organic carbon (POC), particulate organic nilrogen (PON)<br />

and chlorophyll a concentrations were determined in parallel in<br />

surface ( 10 m ) samples.<br />

In the 0-100 m layer, the distribution of particulate biogenic<br />

silica (BSi) showed little correlation with the meltwater field in late<br />

November. High BSi concentrations were measured at the end of<br />

November in the Weddell-Scotia Confluence ( maximum 4.8 µmol l -<br />

1<br />

), and early in January in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (<br />

maximum at 8.2 µmol l -1 ) where the wind-mixed layer was only 35 m,<br />

creating favourable conditions for phytoplankton growth. However,<br />

maximum and mean biogenic silica values remained fairly low as<br />

compared with those reported for the Ross Sea. This relatively low<br />

silica content of the 0-100 m layer appears to be mainly due to<br />

intense grazing which resulted in rapid exportation of particulate<br />

material towards the deeper layers.<br />

The mean POC/PON molar ratio was 5.5, i.e. significantly lower<br />

than the usual Redfield ratio. BSi/POC molar ratios ranged from 0.01<br />

to 0.61, the highest values being found in the Scotia Sea, where<br />

siliceous phytoplankton was dominant. The high BSi/POC ratios<br />

confirm that diatoms in Antarctic Ocean are able to incorporate<br />

unusually high amounts of Si relative to carbon, as compared with<br />

other ecosystems.<br />

(Frasnian) <strong>radiolaria</strong>n fauna from the Liukiang Formation,<br />

eastern and southeastern Guangxi. Acta micropalaeont.<br />

sinica, 8/4, 395-404. (in Chinese)<br />

The siliceous rocks of the Upper Devonian Liukiang Formation<br />

are widely distributed, in eastern and southeastern Guangxi.<br />

Abundant fossil <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns and tentaculitids are found in these<br />

rocks, with 4 genera and 14 species including 1 new genus and 2<br />

new species of the <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns described in this paper.<br />

- 67 -<br />

The tentaculitid faunas are dominated by the genera<br />

Homoctenus, Costulatostyliolina and Styliolina, with Styliolina<br />

philippovae and S. domanicensis regarded as important members of<br />

the Upper Devonian Frasnian Stage in the Russian Platform and<br />

Germany. The <strong>radiolaria</strong>n faunas are characterized by a great<br />

number of species and individuals of the genus Entactinosphaera<br />

such as Entactinosphaera assidera, E. egindyensis, E. aitpaiensis, E.<br />

vetusta, together with Entactinia dissora and Palaeoscenidium<br />

cladophorum, which were already discovered in the Frasnian<br />

Egindinsk Formation of the South Urals (Nazarov, 1975) and<br />

Australia (Hinde, 1899; Nazarov et al., 1982; Nazarov & Ormiston,<br />

1983), indicating that the age of the Liukiang Formation is Late<br />

Devonian (Frasnian).<br />

The occurrence of tripylean <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns is reported for the first<br />

time from subsurface sediments of the subantarctic Atlantic Ocean.<br />

Although their occurrence is rare as well as sporadic, seven species<br />

belonging to four genera are recognized from Upper Cenozoic<br />

sediments drilled at Sites 699, 700, and 701 of ODP Leg 114 in<br />

1987.<br />

Y. et al., Eds.), vol. 114. College Station, TX (Ocean<br />

Drilling Program), pp. 317-324.<br />

Cretaceous <strong>radiolaria</strong>ns were recovered from subantarctic<br />

Atlantic calcareous submarine deposits from two of the seven sites<br />

drilled during ODP Leg 114 in 1987. Fairly well-preserved<br />

<strong>radiolaria</strong>n assemblages were found in Hole 698A samples from the<br />

Northeast Georgia Rise, whereas assemblages with fair to good<br />

preservation were observed from Hole 700B in the East Georgia<br />

Basin. The assemblage compositions from both sites are rather low<br />

in diversity and are characterized by the dominance of<br />

Protoamphipyndax, Dictyomitra, and Stichomitra species, but lack<br />

zonal markers recognized from the midlatitude to low-latitude<br />

region. Assignment of a Maestrichtian age is based on co-occurring<br />

calcareous microfossils. This report constitutes the second such<br />

occurrence from the Atlantic sector of the Antarctic Ocean<br />

subsequent to the analysis of ODP Leg 113 materials from the<br />

Weddell Sea.<br />

Radiolarian-bearing siliceous deposits are a common<br />

occurrence in the Mesozoic successions of the Northern and Central<br />

Apennines. These deposits belong to the following stratigraphic<br />

units: 1) Monte Alpe Cherts. Early Callovian to Late Tithonian or<br />

Early Berriasian. 2) Tuscan Cherts. Latest Bajocian(?)-Early<br />

Bathonian to Late Tithonian or Early Berriasian. 3) "Calcari<br />

Diasprigni". Late Bajocian(?)-Bathonian to Tithonian. 4) Fucoid Marls<br />
