The postcollisional magmatism in the Ribeira Belt, a collisional Orogen developed through several episodes during the convergence of the Pan-African/Brasiliano Orogeny, was marked in the Eastern Terrane (Rio de Janeiro, SE Brazil) by intense granitic magmatism of Cambro-Ordovician age. This magmatism was previously divided into the Suruí and Nova Friburgo suites, both interpreted as I-type granites generated by...
This study compares living (LA) and dead (DA) benthic foraminiferal assemblages and identifies different factors that possibly cause differences in the distribution of both assemblages in the Aveiro Continental Shelf (Portugal). A total of 44 sediment samples was collected during summers of 1994 and 1995 along transects (east-west direction) and between 10 and 200 m water depth. Complex statistical analyses all...
