It spans the transition from the warm Mid Miocene Climatic Optimum, associated with the major Monterey Carbon Isotope Excursion, to the cooler Pliocene, characterized by a bipolar glaciation. Within this climatic transition, during the early Tortonian,...
A mixed carbonate–siliciclastic succession developed on the southern margin of the Bonifacio Basin (Cala di Labra, SE Corsica) during the Burdigalian, in the margin of a back-arc setting which had formed during the Sardinia-Corsica block rotation.
