The Paleogene section of the Il’pinskii Peninsula in northeastern Kamchatka is a reference section for the North Pacific rim. The marine sedimentary succession, 2500m-thick and ranging from the Paleocene to Oligocene, forms one of the northernmost Paleogene sections in the Pacific to yield Paleogene calcareous plankton. Several studies have been dedicated to the study of […]

Report on activities of the WG on North Pacific Paleogene in 2003-2004: 1. A field work was organizied to enable Russian and Japanese geologists (paleontologists and lithologists) to examine the key Paleogene sections of northeastern Kamchatka and North Japan (Hokkaido). The sections were sampled for microfaunal (foraminifers and diatoms) analyses. The samples are under study […]
Annual Report 2005 of the Working Group on Paleogene Stratigraphy of the North Pacific In summer 2005 the Working Group on North Pacific Paleogene conducted fieldworks in Sakhalin to study a) Cretaceous-Paleogene transitional beds and b) marine Oligocene sequences. We collected extensive paleontological and litological material for future investigations. A large collective monograph describing stratigraphy, […]

The works include particularly a part of a special project on geological evolution of the North Pacific […]
Annual Report 2010 of the Working Group on Paleogene Stratigraphy of the North Pacific A working meeting on Paleogene stratigraphy was held in Sakhalin, August 2010. It considered a new model of the Paleogene correlation scheme for the shelf basins of Japan and the Sakhalin-Kamchatka region. Special attention was given to the Early-Middle Eocene geological […]
Annual Report 2011 of the Working Group on Paleogene Stratigraphy of the North Pacific 1. In April 2011 a workshop on Paleogene stratigraphy of the Sakhalin, Kamchatka and Japan region was held in Saint-Petersburg. Special attention was attracted to absolutely new data on Ypresian foraminifers and mollusks (sharp appearance of abundant warm-water assemblages in North […]
