A rare late Mississippian flora from Northwestern Europe (Maine-et-Loire Coalfield, Pays de la Loire, France)

C. Strullu-Derrien et al.

Summary: Diverse adpression floras from the Calymmotheca stangeti Zone in the Maine-et-Loire coalfield of northwestern France indicate an early Namurian age with floristic affinities to the South European Palaeoprovince. These early coal swamp vegetation examples show a higher proportion of lycopsid species and a lower proportion of medullosaleans compared to Pennsylvanian-aged coal swamps, suggesting different ecological conditions.

Late Carboniferous paleoelevation of the Variscan Belt of Western Europe

Camille Dusseaux et al.

Summary: The study presents the first stable isotope paleoaltimetry estimates for the hinterland of the eroded Variscan Belt of Western Europe based on hydrogen isotope ratios of muscovite from syntectonic leucogranites. The significant difference in hydrogen isotope values between the Millevaches massif and the Bourbon l'Archambault foreland basin supports paleoaltimetry estimates, indicating that the Variscan belt of western Europe acted as a barrier to moisture transport and induced an orographic rain shadow effect.
