Jean-Georges Casier

continues to work on Devonian ostracods in collaboration with Ewa Olempska of the Polish Academy of Sciences. We have finished a preliminary study on ostracods during the Early-Middle Frasnian crisis in the Wietrznia quarry (Holy Cross Mountains, Poland). We have also begun the study of ostracods present in several classic Belgian reference sections, taking advantage of the recently re-examined lithostratigraphy of the Frasnian and Famennian in the type locality, by the Belgian Subcommission on Devonian Stratigraphy. A first paper showing the distribution of ostracods in the famous Frasnes railway section will be submitted soon. Jean-Georges Casier has also finished a study on Devonian ostracods from Bolivia collected by Patrick Racheboeuf (University of Brest), and a study on ostracods from the Middle/Upper Devonian boundary stratotype (Puech de la Suque, Montagne Noire, France). This paper will be published in the next issue of the Bulletin de la Societé géologique de France. Ostracods indicate that the Puech de la Suque section is far from being an ideal stratotype for the Givetian / Frasnian boundary.

Robert Speijer

Research in the Biogeology research group of the K.U.Leuven focuses on improving the understanding of bio-geosphere interactions during the early Paleogene with a particular focus on the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum (PETM) and the Danian/Selandian transition. Three of us are contributing through ostracod studies in this endeavor. Jimmy Van Itterbeeck (now Shell Rijswijk) studied assemblages from the marine Sidi Nasseur section in Tunisia and observed a modest faunal change across the Danian/Selandian boundary (Van Itterbeeck et al. 2007). Andre Bornemann (now Leipzig University) who briefly succeeded Jimmy in our lab continued Jimmy’s work by unraveling stable isotopic (O, C) signatures on some of the marine taxa of Sidi Nasseur. Mohsen Morsi of Ain Shams University, Cairo is our Egyptian expert colleague who has been dealing with ostracoda from the Paleocene of Egypt and of the PETM in Tunisia. With respect to the latter we are assessing the role of climatic and paleoceanographic changes on the evolution and migration of Tethyan assemblages. Earlier results from Egypt indicated a gradual but distinct change across the Paleocene/Eocene boundary (Speijer and Morsi, 2002, Morsi and Speijer, 2003).

 

Karel Wouters

Is continuing research on marine and brackish Cypridacea, mostly from the Indian and Pacific oceans, on Ypresian ostracods from an outcrop in Marke (Belgium), on the the taxonomy and zoogeography of the family Saididae, and on the Cyprideis species flock of Lake Tanganyika (together with K. Martens).

Recently started a new research projects on the Yucatan Peninsula, a contribution to the Lago Peten Itza Scientific Drilling Project (PISDP), and in southern Tibet, both collaborative research initiatives funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.

 

Students:

·        Liseth Perez (PhD student, co-advisor Burkhard Scharf) is carrying out a limnological survey across the Yucatan Peninsula in order to build a training set from ecological, aquatic geochemical and limnological data.  She will apply transfer functions and interference statistics to species assemblages of ostracodes from long cores recovered from Lake Peten Itza in February-March 2006, in order to help decode the late Quaternary climate history of the Neotropics.

·        Claudia Wrozyna (Diploma student) is working with ostracode species assemblages from surface sediments and outcrops in the Lake Nam Co catchment (southern Tibet) and the Zada Basin (southwest Tibet) in order to get a first overview on Late Quaternary lake level changes (in cooperation with Steffen Mischke and Peter Frenzel).

This project AS A WHOLE runs for 4 years (2004-2008) and employs 6 Early Stage Researchers and 4 postdocs in 9 European laboratories (see below).  The topic covers molecular biology, genomics, ecology, phylogeny and phylogeography, modelling, etc., and deals with geographic parthenogenesis, relevance of parasitic load, functionality of rare males and so on.

·        Continuing  studies on taxonomy, phylogeny and ecology of non-marine ostracods from the world, presently with focus on Africa, Thailand (Sukonthip Savatenalinton), Mongolia (Thijs Van der Meeren), Italy (Valentina Pieri), and South America (Janet Higuti and Ricardo Pinto).

Ongoing research:

 

1) Holocene ostracodes from different cores of coastal lagoons and estuaries in  Portugal.

2) Recent ostracodes from salt-marshes from Portuguese estuaries (Mira and Lima rivers, if possible Tagus and Sado too).

3) Jurassic ostracodes from the Lusitanian Basin, Portugal: marine Sinemurian, Pliensbachian and Toarcian ostracodes; non-marine Oxfordian ostracodes.

4) Pleistocene non-marine ostracodes from Algarve, South Portugal (with J.P. Colin and P. Carbonel).
