Rudists as gregarious sediment-dwellers, not reef-builders, on cretaceous carbonate platforms
- E. Gili, J. Massé, P. Skelton
- Geology
- 1 November 1995
Abstract It has sometimes been claimed that rudist bivalves competitively displaced corals from reef frameworks during the Cretaceous. This hypothesis combines two assertions: (1) that the autecology… Expand
Rudists and carbonate platforms in the Aptian: a case study on biotic interactions with ocean chemistry and climate
- P. Skelton, E. Gili
- Geology
- 2012
Variations in Aptian carbonate platform growth and associated turnover among rudists are reviewed and the results synthesized with evidence for climate change to yield an explanatory model. Extensive… Expand

- Geology
- 1 December 1995
Abstract Corals and rudist bivalves commonly coexisted on the shallow carbonate platforms of the Cretaceous Tethyan Realm. Usually, the carbonate platforms show lateral and vertical biotic zonations.… Expand
