Compilation of recent studies on carbon-isotope stratigraphy for this region revealed that the δ13C event, is located in the middle of gradual ∼1.5‰ negative shift above the prominent Cenornanian/Turonian boundary δ513C "spike". Limited occurrences of cosmopolitan age-indicative ammonoid species, Collignoniceras woollgari revealed that the range of this species encompasses the δ13C event horizon confirming its utility as an international chemostratigraphic keybed, whereas the common occurrence of Inoceramus hobetsensis across the δ13C event benefits identifying this important marker horizon., 金沢大学理工研究域理工研究域地球社会基盤学系}, pages = {141--144}, title = {A global carbon-isotope event in the Middle Turonian (Cretaceous) sequences in Japan and Russian Far East}, volume = {79}, year = {2003} }
