Abstract

The Paleocene‐Eocene transition is one of the most interesting and intensively investigated time intervals because of the significant changes in global climate and in oceanic circulation that occurred and due to unresolved controversies related to the search for a Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the P/E boundary. In order to characterize and understand these changes, numerous sections have been studied in the former Tethys region, an area characterized by sedimentary sequences with fairly continuous sedimentation and rich microfossil contents. The integrated stratigraphy obtained has provided a high-resolution biostratigraphy and important data for paleoenvironmental reconstructions of this time interval. Many of the studied sections are located in Spain (Zumaya, Alamedilla, Caravaca, and Tra
