The applicability of the portfolio balance model of exchange rate determination to the Australian dollar
Creators: name: Hopkins, S
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Two issues represent a substantial and continuing challenge to the central bank of a small open economy. The first relates to the correct identification of the 'mix of domestic and external influences on the exchange rate. Correct identification is a first step toward the formulation of a coherent domestic commercial policy: one which provides desired domestic and external policy outcomes. The second requires a clear understanding of the mechanisms of control; the channels of influence open to the central bank if they are able to meet policy targets. In order to address these two issues, the analysis develops a portfolio balance model of exchange rate determination incorporating the role of central bank foreign exchange market intervention behavior. The portfolio balance model is a short term one, restricted to periods of less than one year where the exchange rate is viewed as an asset price influenced by changes in the demand and supply of domestic money, domestic and foreign currency denominated financial assets. Incorporation of central bank behaviour into the model expands a private sector driven view of exchange rate determination into one where there is a role for both private and public sector foreign exchange market behaviour. A further issue, which builds on the first mentioned above, is the impact of public sector behaviour on private sector participants in the exchange rate determination process. The relationship between the two sets of participants in the foreign exchange market - public and private - is reflected in the effects of central bank intervention on the decisions made by private sector investors. The risk premium required by for example, foreign investors holding a domestically denominated asset may alter with central bank action in the foreign exchange market The influence of intervention activity is not confined to the relationship between central bank intervention and the foreign exchange risk premium but also to the more fundamental issue of whether there is a risk premium or not.

description: Evolved low-mass stars of a wide range of metallicity bear signatures of a non-standard mixing event in their surface abundances of Li, C, and N, and in their 12C/13C ratio. A Na overabundance has also been reported in some giants of open clusters but remains controversial. The cause of the extra-mixing has been attributed to thermohaline convection that should take place after the RGB bump for low-mass stars and on the early-AGB for more massive objects. To track the occurrence of this process over a wide mass range, we derive in a homogeneous way the abundances of C, N, O, and Na, as well as the 12C/13C ratio in a sample of 31 giants of 10 open clusters with turn-off masses from 1.7 to 3.1 Msun. A group of first ascent red giants with M/Msun \leq 2.5 exhibits lower [N/C] ratios than those measured in clump giants of the same mass range, suggesting an additional increase in the [N/C] ratio after the first dredge-up. The sodium abundances corrected from NLTE are found to be about solar. [Na/Fe] shows a slight increase of 0.10 dex as a function of stellar mass in the 1.8 to 3.2 Msun range covered by our sample, in agreement with standard first dredge-up predictions. Our results do not support previous claims of sodium overabundances as high as +0.60 dex. An anti-correlation between 12C/13C and turn-off mass is identified and interpreted as being caused by a post-bump thermohaline mixing. Moreover, we find low 12C/13C ratios in a few intermediate-mass early-AGB stars, confirming that an extra-mixing process also operates in stars that do not experienced the RGB bump. In this case, the extra-mixing possibly acts on the early-AGB, in agreement with theoretical expectations for thermohaline mixing. [abridged]

description: Harvard University President Lawrence Summers triggered an avalanche of media coverage and debate about the status of women in science in a 14 January 2005 speech. When Summers posited that the persistent absence of women in science could be due to a lack of "intrinsic aptitude" and an unwillingness to pursue high-intensity academic careers, he placed the blame on women and minorities. Summers also made reference to economist Gary Becker, who developed the theory that market forces will eventually address any persistent discrimination because discrimination is costly and inefficient in a competitive market. These arguments are not supported by current research on implicit bias and organizational behavior.
Symmetry principles in quantized systems
Creators: name: Jarvis, Peter
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This thesis presents contributions to theoretical physics in the domain of quantum field theory and quantum Mechanics from work over the last fifteen years. A common thread running through the collection is the importance placed on symmetry principles in elucidating theoretical structures and constrainink physical predictions. Although the early work involves studies with conventional continuous symmetries (Lie groups), a predominant theme is supersymmetry, whose origins in relativistic field theory also date back about fifteen years. A major achievement of the present opus is perhaps the demonstration of the applicability of supersymmetry in contexts other than that of a relativistic spin symmetry. The papers exploring supersymmetric quantum mechanics, supersymmetry in nuclear and solid state physics, Becchi-RouetStora-Tyutin quantization supersymmetry, and internal supergroup gauging, all testify to this. The papers have been divided for review purposes onto five (overlapping) streams:- ¬¨vüS: spacetime (fermi-bose) supersymmetry; ¬¨vüM: physical models; ¬¨vüA: algebras and superalgebras; ¬¨vüQ: quantization and BRST supersymmetry; and ¬¨vüI: infinitedimensional symmetries. The collection, which forms the main body of the thesis, is preceded by a review covering each of these streams in turn. The main achievements and Most important papers are discussed, accompanied by a listing of the papers making up each stream. (Comments on relative contributions are also included for some co-authored works). Papers which overlap different streams are listed under each, and generally cross-referenced if they merit mentioning more than once. Within each review heading, papers are listed in chronological order of completion. The paper numbers refer to the main collection (also in chronological order of completion, but not disaggregated into streams). For ease of reference, a listing of the main collection is included as an index, together with the paper number and alphabetical stream identifier(s).
title: Rapid Effects of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 on Calcium Uptake in Isolated Chick Enterocytes
Creators: name: Phadnis, Ruta
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2003

description: 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3[25(OH)D3] is a metabolite of vitamin D3 that has long been considered to be an inactive precursor of the hormonally active metabolite 1,25- dihydroxyvitamin D3[l,25(OH)2D3]; consequently very few studies have addressed the potential biological activity of 25(OH)2D3. However, it is known that 100 nM 25(OH)2D3 increases calcium transport in the perfused duodenal loop of the chicken to 200% of controls within 20 minutes. The hypothesis of the current study is that 25(OH)2D3 may be a hormonally active metabolite and its effects can be studied in isolated chick enterocytes. To begin testing this postulate, time course studies of 45Ca uptake were undertaken in isolated intestinal cells (from 7 wk chicks). After establishing the basal uptake of 45Ca for 5 minutes, cells were treated with vehicle(< 0.01% v/v ethanol, final concentration) or 25 nM, 50 nM, 100 nM, or 300 nM 25(OH)2D3 and samples were taken at T = 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 min. With increasing concentrations of steroid, the enterocyte 45Ca decreased. The optimal concentration of 100 nM 25(OH)2D3 induced the most rapid response: within 1 min 45Ca decreased to 54% of controls (P < 0.001) and 70% of the controls at T= 3, 5, and 7 min (P < 0.01 to < 0.05, relative to controls). Comparison of the 7- min time points for 25 nM, 50 nM, 100 nM, and 300 nM 25(OH)2D3 appeared to yield a biphasic dose response curve with values of 45Ca observed at 99% (NS, not significant), 75% (P < 0.05), 70%(P < 0.01%), and 80% (NS) of corresponding controls, respectively. Physiological levels of 24,25(OH)2D3 (6.5 nM) inhibited the action of 100 nM 25(OH)2D3 in isolated chick enterocytes. Time course studies with isolated enterocytes from 14 wk and 28 wk chickens treated with 100 nM 25(OH)2D3 also showed decreased responsiveness: at T= 1 min 45Ca levels in 7 wk, 14 wk, and 28 wk were 54% (P < 0.01), 83% (NS), and 80% (NS) of corresponding controls, respectively. Experiments with the calcium channel activator BAY K8644 (2 μM) and protein kinase A (PKA) activator forskolin (20 μM) revealed enhanced levels of 45Ca at T= 10 min that were 132% and 140% of corresponding controls, respectively (each, P < 0.05). Phorbol ester treatment of the cells resulted in significant increases in the levels of 45Ca between the treated cells and corresponding controls at T=7 and 10 min. Cells treated with 100 nM 25(OH)2D3 revealed 89.8% and 78.4% increases above controls in PKA activity at T =1 min (P < 0.05) and T=3 min, relative to corresponding controls. However, there was no evidence for the activation of PKC by 25(OH)2D3 during the time period studied.

description: This article provides a review of recent developments in the formulation and execution of optimal control strategies for the dynamics of quantum systems. A brief introduction to the concept of optimal control, the dynamics of of open quantum systems, and quantum information processing is followed by a presentation of recent developments regarding the two main tasks in this context: state-specific and state-independent optimal control. For the former, we present an extension of conventional theory (Pontryagin's principle) to quantum systems which undergo a non-Markovian time-evolution. Owing to its importance for the realization of quantum information processing, the main body of the review, however, is devoted to state-independent optimal control. Here, we address three different approaches: an approach which treats dissipative effects from the environment in lowest-order perturbation theory, a general method based on the time--evolution superoperator concept, as well as one based on the Kraus representation of the time-evolution superoperator. Applications which illustrate these new methods focus on single and double qubits (quantum gates) whereby the environment is modeled either within the Lindblad equation or a bath of bosons (spin-boson model). While these approaches are widely applicable, we shall focus our attention to solid-state based physical realizations, such as semiconductor- and superconductor-based systems. While an attempt is made to reference relevant and representative work throughout the community, the exposition will focus mainly on work which has emerged from our own group.

description: Since the violent relaxation in hierarchical merging is incomplete, elliptical galaxies retain a wealth of information about their formation pathways in their present-day orbital structure. A variety of evidence indicates that gas-rich major mergers play an important role in the formation of elliptical galaxies. We simulate 1:1 disk mergers at seven different initial gas fractions ranging from 0 to 40%, using the TreeSPH code Gadget-2. We classify the stellar orbits in each remnant and construct radial profiles of the orbital content, intrinsic shape, and orientation. The dissipationless remnants are typically prolate-triaxial, dominated by box orbits within r_c ~ 1.5Reff, and by tube orbits in their outer parts. As the gas fraction increases, the box orbits within r_c are increasingly replaced by a population of short axis tubes (z-tubes) with near zero net rotation, and the remnants become progressively more oblate and round. The long axis tube (x-tube) orbits are highly streaming and relatively insensitive to the gas fraction, implying that their angular momentum is retained from the dynamically cold initial conditions. Outside r_c, the orbital structure is essentially unchanged by the gas. The 15-20% gas remnants often display disk-like kinematically distinct cores (KDCs). These remnants show an interesting resemblance, in both their velocity maps and intrinsic orbital structure, to the KDC galaxy NGC4365 (van den Bosch et al. 2008). At 30-40% gas, the remnants are rapidly rotating, with sharp embedded disks on ~ 1Reff scales. We predict a characteristic, physically intuitive orbital structure for 1:1 disk merger remnants, with a distinct transition between 1 and 3Reff that will be readily observable with combined data from the 2D kinematics surveys SAURON and SMEAGOL.

description: Twelve years ago, reading a passage from the submarine novel The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy was as dose as any exploration geophysicist got to gravity gradiometry. This early technique in Gulf Coast exploration, which faded from use with the development of modern gravity instrumentation in the 1930s, had been relegated to brief historical sections of introductory texts. In the 1970s, driven by both navigation and missile launching requirements, the U.S. Navy spent hundreds of millions of dollars developing a system to measure gravity gradients; this system was somewhat more complex than the fictional one Clancy installed on the Red October. The end of the Cold War triggered the introduction of classified military technology to exploration geophysics and other fields. Three years ago the U.S. Navy began to explore civilian applications for submarine gravity gradient technology. This article describes gravity gradients, the developing uses of gravity gradiometry in exploration, and future possibilities for the technique.

Laurentian Provenance of Archean Mantle Fragments in the Proterozoic Baltic Crust of the Norwegian Caledonides

description: The Proterozoic gneisses of the Western Gneiss Region (WGR) of western Norway experienced HP-UHP metamorphism during the 435-390 Ma Caledonian (Scandian) orogeny, and locally enclose numerous large bodies of Archean peridotite. Competing models for the emplacement of these peridotites into the gneisses involve either (1) upthrusting of subcontinental mantle into overlying gneisses or (2) 'sinking emplacement' of peridotites from the Laurentian mantle wedge into the upper surface of the subducting Baltica plate. The first model implies the existence of Archean lower crust below the outcropping gneisses. To evaluate these models we have carried out a regional survey of the U-Pb age, Hf isotope composition and trace-element compositions of detrital zircon grains collected from drainages in the northern half of the WGR. The zircon data indicate that the gneisses that make up the crust of the WGR were originally generated during the 1·7-1·5 Ga Gothian orogeny. The Hf isotope signatures of these zircons indicate a juvenile (i.e. mantle) origin; there is no evidence, from either inherited zircons or the Hf isotope data, that Archean crustal materials were involved in the genesis of these gneisses. The Sveconorwegian orogeny (1·3 to < 1·0 Ga) that overprinted the Gothian gneisses involved both juvenile magmatic additions to the crust and remelting of the Gothian basement; these Sveconorwegian-age magmas also show no evidence of Archean contributions. A population of zircons collected from a drainage area containing large mantle-derived peridotite bodies includes anhedral to rounded grains with distinctive trace-element patterns consistent with derivation from depleted rocks; these are inferred to be derived from the peridotites and/or their enclosed eclogites and pyroxenites. These zircons give Archean Hf model ages, but 207Pb/206Pb ages ranging from Archean to Caledonian, suggesting that the younger ages reflect resetting during later thermal events. The Archean zircon ages are consistent with Archean Re-Os model ages previously obtained on the peridotites. In the absence of any evidence for Archean crust (and hence Archean mantle) beneath southern Baltica, we infer that the peridotite massifs represent fragments of the subcontinental lithosphere beneath Laurentia, and were introduced tectonically into the gneisses during the Caledonian subduction of Baltica beneath Laurentia.

description: PKS J2310-437 is an AGN with bright X-ray emission relative to its weak radio emission and optical continuum. It is believed that its jet lies far enough from the line of sight that it is not highly relativistically beamed. It thus provides an extreme test of AGN models. We present new observations aimed at refining the measurement of the source's properties. In optical photometry with the NTT we measure a central excess with relatively steep spectrum lying above the bright elliptical galaxy emission, and we associate the excess wholly or in part with the AGN. A new full-track radio observation with the ATCA finds that the core 8.64GHz emission has varied by about 20 per cent over 38 months, and improves the mapping of the weak jet. With Chandra we measure a well-constrained power-law spectral index for the X-ray core, uncontaminated by extended emission from the cluster environment, with a negligible level of intrinsic absorption. Weak X-ray emission from the resolved radio jet is also measured. Our analysis suggests that the optical continuum in this radio galaxy has varied by at least a factor of four over a timescale of about two years, something that should be testable with further observations. We conclude that the most likely explanation for the bright central X-ray emission is synchrotron radiation from high-energy electrons.

A new method to measure the attenuation of hadrons in extensive air showers
Creators: name: Apel, W. D.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Extensive air showers are generated through interactions of high-energy cosmic rays impinging the Earth's atmosphere. A new method is described to infer the attenuation of hadrons in air showers. The numbers of electrons and muons, registered with the scintillator array of the KASCADE experiment are used to estimate the energy of the shower inducing primary particle. A large hadron calorimeter is used to measure the hadronic energy reaching observation level. The ratio of energy reaching ground level to the energy of the primary particle is used to derive an attenuation length of hadrons in air showers. In the energy range from $10^6$ GeV to $3\cdot10^7$ GeV the attenuation length obtained increases from 170 \gcm2 to 210 \gcm2. The experimental results are compared to predictions of simulations based on contemporary high energy interaction models.

Jamming transitions in amorphous packings of frictionless spheres occur over a continuous range of volume fractions

description: We numerically produce fully amorphous assemblies of frictionless spheres in three dimensions and study the jamming transition these packings undergo at large volume fractions. We specify four protocols yielding a critical value for the jamming volume fraction which is sharply defined in the limit of large system size, but is different for each protocol. Thus, we directly establish the existence of a continuous range of volume fraction where nonequilibrium jamming transitions occur. However, these jamming transitions share the same critical behaviour. Our results suggest that, even in the absence of partial crystalline ordering, a unique location of a random close packing does not exist, and that volume fraction alone is not sufficient to describe the properties of jammed states.

Australian marine protected area policy : towards a national system of marine biosphere reserves
Creators: name: Kriwoken, L
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: International support for national systems of representative marine protected areas have been set in place by the World Conservation Strategy (WCS) and the National Conservation Strategy of Australia (NCSA). Australia has adopted the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) objectives for marine protected areas through the Commonwealth and State intergovernmental Council of Nature Conservation Ministers (CONCOM). The thesis examines international marine protected area developments and then proceeds to an assessment of existing Commonwealth and State legislative and institutional arrangements for Australian marine protected areas. It argues that existing Commonwealth and State legislative and institutional arrangements for marine protected areas are incapable of meeting WCS/NCSA objectives. The thesis examines how the inherent difficulties of Australian federalism in relation to offshore jurisdictional disputes have influenced marine protected area legislation and have shaped institutional arrangements for meeting these international objectives. An open system of conservation is distinguished from a closed system of conservation by the way it explicitly recognizes that outside activities may compromise the ecological integrity of the marine protected area. Australia's Great Barrier Reef Marine Park in Queensland is taken as a case study to illustrate the evolution of Commonwealth and State intergovernmental legislative and institutional arrangements, and as a potential model for an open system of conservation meeting WCS/NCSA objectives for marine protected areas. Three options are canvassed for the future operation of an Australian marine protected area system: (1) the status quo; (2) incremental change of existing Commonwealth and State legislative and institutional arrangments; and (3) the introduction of cooperative Commonwealth and State legislative and institutional arrangements in accordance with the United Nations Environment, Scientific, and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO) Man and The Biosphere (MAB) biosphere reserve programs. Cooperative intergovernmental Commonwealth and State legislative and institutional reform, based on the ecological principles of protected area planning and management of MAB, is advocated as an appropriate framework for a representative Australian system of marine protected areas. A legislative and institutional framework supporting an Australian marine biosphere reserve system is outlined and implications discussed, as are constraints in realizing such a system.

description: We report the discovery of diffuse hard (1-5 keV) X-ray emission around Jupiter in a deep 160 ks Suzaku XIS data. The emission is distributed over ~16x8 Jovian radius and spatially associated with the radiation belts and the Io Plasma Torus. It shows a flat power-law spectrum with a photon index of 1.4+/-0.2 with the 1-5 keV X-ray luminosity of (3.3+/-0.5)x10^15 erg/s. We discussed its origin and concluded that it seems to be truly diffuse, although a possibility of multiple background point sources can not be completely rejected with a limited angular resolution. If it is diffuse, the flat continuum indicates that X-rays arise by the non-thermal electrons in the radiation belts and/or the Io Plasma Torus. The synchrotron and bremsstrahlung models can be rejected from the necessary electron energy and X-ray spectral shape, respectively. The inverse-Compton scattering off solar photons by ultra-relativistic (several tens MeV) electrons can explain the energy and the spectrum but the necessary electron density is >~10 times larger than the value estimated from the empirical model of Jovian charge particles.

Mesoscale biogeochemical responses to iron fertilization in the upper layers of the Southern Ocean Iron Experiment areas

Subjects: Biogeochemistry

description: During the Southern Ocean Iron Experiment (SOFeX), January-February 2002, two iron fertilization experiments were conducted at the south (66.45°S, 171.8°W) and north (56.23°S, 172°W) patches. The south patch was replete with all macronutrients, whereas the north patch was nearly depleted of silicate. Using a towed water sampling/measurement system, high resolution three-dimensional observations of temperature, salinity, CO_2 partial pressure (pCO_2) and the concentrations of total CO_2 (TCO_2), nitrate, phosphate and silicate in the upper 100 m were obtained 10 and 28 days after initial iron additions in the south and north patches, respectively. TCO_2 and nutrient drawdowns observed in the south patch were small due to wind events that limited biological response in the early postfertilization period. At the north patch, drawdown signals were stronger, resulting from the longer time since fertilization. The north patch was dispersed along a frontal zone between two distinct waters, with the denser subducted under the lighter. Subduction limited CO_2 uptake from the air, but provided alternative mechanisms for vertical carbon export. Based on the biogeochemical drawdowns and published estimates of the rate of the entrainment of nonfertilized waters into the patch, the mean net community productivity over 28 days was estimated to be 94 ±12 mmol carbon m^-2 day^-1, to which the air-to-sea flux contributed only 2%. Despite low silicate concentrations and potential limitation of growth of silicifying plankton in the north patch, our estimates of the enhanced carbon uptake are similar to estimates from higher silicate environments.
Effects of dieldrin on reproduction in the rat
Creators: name: Virgo, Bruce Barton
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The effects of chronic ingestion of technical dieldrin on reproduction in the rat were studied by determining the number of litters, the number and the viability of young born to animals exposed to dietary concentrations of 0, 13, 25, 37 and 53 ppm. Dieldrin had no effect on the reproductive success of the males. In the females dieldrin had no effect on fertility and did not significantly reduce litter sizes but evidence is presented which suggests the litter size reduction is real. Exposure of the dam during lactation reduces the survival of suckling young. It is suggested that the major cause of this mortality is acute poisoning from dieldrin secreted in the milk, although the growth responses of the young indicate that starvation resulting from decreased lactation may also be involved. None of the mortality is caused by increases in maternal aggression or neglect. Exposure during gestation alone also reduces the post-partum survival of young. The probable physiological mechanisms involved in the various effects are discussed.

Relations Between Closed String Amplitudes at Higher-order Tree Level and Open String Amplitudes

description: KLT relations almost factorize closed string amplitudes on $S_2$ by two open string tree amplitudes which correspond to the left- and the right- moving sectors. In this paper, we investigate string amplitudes on $D_2$ and $RP_2$. We find that KLT factorization relations do not hold in these two cases. The relations between closed and open string amplitudes have new forms. On $D_2$ and $RP_2$, the left- and the right- moving sectors are connected into a single sector. Then an amplitude with closed strings on $D_2$ or $RP_2$ can be given by one open string tree amplitude except for a phase factor. The relations depends on the topologies of the world-sheets.Under T-duality, the relations on $D_2$ and $RP_2$ give the amplitudes between closed strings scattering from D-brane and O-plane respectively by open string partial amplitudes.In the low energy limits of these two cases, the factorization relations for graviton amplitudes do not hold. The amplitudes for gravitons must be given by the new relations instead.

Field, Experimental, and Modeling Study of Arsenic Partitioning across a Redox Transition in a Bangladesh Aquifer

description: To understand redox-dependent arsenic partitioning, we performed batch sorption and desorption experiments using aquifer sands subjected to chemical and mineralogical characterization. Sands collected from the redox transition zone between reducing groundwater and oxic river water at the Meghna riverbank with HCl extractable Fe(III)/Fe ratio ranging from 0.32 to 0.74 are representative of the redox conditions of aquifers common in nature. One brown suboxic sediment displayed a partitioning coefficient (K_d) of 7-8 L kg^-1 at equilibrium with 100 μg L^-1 As(III), while two gray reducing sediments showed K_d of 1-2 L kg^-1. Lactate amendment to aquifer sands containing 91 mg kg^-1 P-extractable As resulted in the reduction of As and Fe with sediment Fe(III)/Fe decreasing from 0.54 to 0.44, and mobilized an equivalent of 64 mg kg^-1 As over a month. Desorption of As from nonlactate-amended sediment was negligible with little change in sediment Fe(III)/Fe. This release of As is consistent with microbial reduction of Fe(III) oxyhydroxides and the resulting decrease in the number of surface sites on Fe(III) oxyhydroxides. Arsenic partitioning (K_d) in iron-rich, sulfur-poor aquifers with circumneutral pH is redox-dependent and can be estimated by HCl leachable sediment Fe(III)/Fe ratio with typical Fe concentrations.
Late Paleocene event chronology: unconformities, not diachrony

description: The chronology of the events associated with the late Paleocene thermal maximum (LPTM, Chron C24r) has been established through the construction of a composite reference section that involved chemomagnetobiostratigraphic correlations and assumed minimum diachrony of biostratigraphic events. On this basis, discrepancies between correlations in different sections were explained by inferred unconformities. However, diachrony between distant sections cannot be ruled out. We report here on two geographically close sections drilled onshore New Jersey that yield different records of chemomagnetobiostratigraphic correlations in the interval representing Chron C24r. Because of their proximity (approximately 40 km apart), diachrony of biostratigraphic events between the two sections can be ruled out. In contrast, the marked lithologic disconformities in the sections explain well the different records of events. We thus conclude that the current relative chronology for Chron C24r is firmly based and that the upper Paleocene-lower Eocene stratigraphic record yields multiple unconformities, with Subzone NP9b rarely sampled. We examine the implications that undeciphered unconformities may have on the identification of proxies for paleoceanographic reconstruction, in particular with regard to the identification of the carbon isotope excursion (CIE) that reflects a dramatic latest Paleocene disturbance of the carbon cycle. We propose biostratigraphic means (short-lived calcareous nannoplankton and planktonic foraminifera taxa) that permit the unequivocal identification of the CIE not only in the oceanic realm but also in neritic settings.
