		Gaemers, P.A.M. Refined correlations by means of lithostratigraphy and gadid otolith zonation of the Rupelian of the North Sea basin: a progress report.
		The frequency of otoliths in Rupelian sediments is usually low due to poor conditions in most marine environments.
		A high abundance of otoliths is often remarkable in horizons within the septaria clay with the highest concentrations of calcium carbonate in calcareous intervals and in calcareous beds intercalated in lime-free intervals.

	ULB Bonn ::: Dissertation - Nickel-Abstract
		At the beginning of the Rupelian period the North Sea transgressed onto the southern foreland filling up the existing topography.
		During Rupelian and Chattian times the Lower Rhine Embayment and its adjacent areas were forced by the alpine compressional tectonic regime as well as by an increasing extensional tectonic influence due to the Cenozoic Central European rift system.
		At the beginning of the Rupelian the subsidence at the northern margin of the variscan fold belt was very consistent from Belgium to Saxony-Anhalt.

	3-D Fault-Related Folds in a Rift Setting, Dannemarie Basin, Upper Rhine Graben, France
		The seismic data indicate that these folds were active during Early and Middle Rupelian, a period during which the Rhine Graben was under extension.
		From Priabonian to Middle Rupelian, Tertiary deposits were syn-tectonically deformed, in parallel with an upward advance of the faults.
		The data suggests that the Illfurth fault zone acted as a normal fault with associated folds during the Rupelian, with a possible sinistral strike-slip component due to a post-Miocene NW-SE compressive regional stress field.

		ABSTRACT: Sedimentation in the Lower Inn Valley area began in the Priabonian on the previously folded and deeply eroded rocks of the Northern Calcareous Alps.
		The transgression is strongly overprinted by tectonic subsidence of the basin due to transtension along the sinistral Inntal Fault.
		Strong periods of erosion from Rupelian to Egerian and from Pliocene to present were interrupted by slower rates in the intervening period, when several generations of ancient land surfaces (e.g.

		The oldest known occurrence is 31.50 Ma (within the Rupelian), according to Stover and Hardenbol (1993).
		The last occurrence of Areoligera semicirculata in Section 162-985A-51X-2 upholds our interpretation of a Rupelian age for the interval from Core 162-985A-62X through Section 51X-2 because this species is restricted to the Rupelian (Williams et al., in press).
		The correlation also indicates a much thicker Rupelian section at Site 985, which is reasonable considering that it was much closer to a continental sediment source in the Oligocene.

	Carcharias cuspidata, Oligocene Boom Clay
		In Belgium, Carcharias cuspidata is rarely found in the early Oligocene: at the phosphoritic base of the Boom Clay (early Rupelian) and in the Boom Clay itself (late Rupelian).
		The tooth Agassiz figured as n°47 is still accessible in the collection of the museum in Neufchatel, Switzerland, and appears to be composed of pieces from different specimens (pers.
		At the base of the Rupelian in Belgium a large set of cuspidata teeth was collected in this limited faunal assemblage; this homogeneous set shows both Agassiz' cuspidata and denticulata types.

		Lower Oligocene (Rupelian) age strata are missing at the CCC # 1 because it lies in the Gulf Trough channel, an area swept by strong currents that inhibited deposition during the Rupelian.

		Our results prove that glacio-eustatic sea level oscillations in the early Oligocene were dominantly obliquity controlled with additional influence of the ∼100- and 405-kyr eccentricity cycles.
		This was derived from spectral analysis of resistivity records from an extended downhole section of the Boom Clay succession in Belgium, that reveals a prevailing obliquity control on the laterally persistent metre-scale alternations of shallow marine silt- and claystones in the Rupelian historical stratotype succession.
		These direct measurements of sea level variations in a shallow marine setting corroborate that variations with similar frequencies in benthonic oxygen isotope records from the open ocean indeed reflect, at least partly, ice volume change.

	The EUCOR-URGENT Project - Paper and Color figs of IJES Paleogeography paper by J.-P. Berger et al
		Following a first lacustrine-continental sedimentation during the Middle Eocene, two and locally three Rupelian transgressive events have been identified with the first corresponding with the Early Rupelian Middle Pechelbronn beds and the second and third with the Late Rupelian « Serie Grise » (Fischschiefer and equivalents).
		During the Early Rupelian (Middle Pechelbronn beds), a connection between North Sea and URG is clearly demonstrated, but a general connection between North Sea, URG and Paratethys, via the Alpine sea, is proposed, but not prooved, during the late Rupelian only.
		Whereas in the southern URG a major hiatus spans Early Aquitanian to Pliocene times, Early and Middle Miocene marine, brackish and freshwater facies occur in the northern URG and in the Molasse Basin (OMM, OSM); however, no marine connections between these basins could be demonstrated during this time.

		The parasequences have been interpreted, mapped and tied to high frequency eustatic events and then be used to find and exploit these reservoirs (Reistroeffer, 2001).
		Interestingly the Rupelian aged section of the exercises has more stratigraphic sequences (Vail et al., 1977) than have been recorded on the eustatic charts of Haq, et.
		This is explained to be the product of high frequency variations in one or more of the principal variables that controlled the dimensions of the accommodation space.

		A variety of geochemical analyses such as pyrolysis, stable isotope and trace metal analysis, and bulk composition shows significant variation in depositional conditions during the Oligo-Miocene within the Southern Caspian Basin.
		While these large trends are seen, it is obvious that there is a fair amount of source rock variation on a smaller scale, both vertically and laterally, with TOC values ranging from 0.25 to 5.62, and large variations in other geochemical parameters.
		A possible stratigraphic division between the Rupelian and Chattian sections of the Maikop Series is suggested by the data, and this idea will be reinforced or refuted by ongoing research in the area.

		Despite the dry tone and frequent scientific conditionals, the tale told by Dr. Graham is spellbinding:
		[The Late Rupelian] event essentially eliminated most [oceanic] holdovers from the warmer Late Eocene and transitional early Oligocene as marked by the extinction of many cool-water foraminifera and nanoplankton, oxygen isotope records, and a fall in sea level.
		From ~32 mya through 30 mya … the largest sea-level drop in Tertiary history is recorded, and it likely was the result of the beginning of full continental glaciation on Antarctica.
