Difference between Geologic time scale and Langhian

Geologic time scale vs. Langhian

The geologic time scale (GTS) is a system of chronological dating that relates geological strata (stratigraphy) to time. The Langhian is, in the ICS geologic timescale, an age or stage in the middle Miocene epoch/series.

Similarities between Geologic time scale and Langhian

Geologic time scale and Langhian have 13 things in common (in Unionpedia): Age (geology), Burdigalian, Epoch (geology), Foraminifera, Geologic time scale, Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point, International Commission on Stratigraphy, Middle Miocene disruption, Miocene, Plankton, Series (stratigraphy), Serravallian, Stage (stratigraphy).

Age (geology)

A geologic age is a subdivision of geologic time that divides an epoch into smaller parts.

Burdigalian

The Burdigalian is, in the geologic timescale, an age or stage in the early Miocene.

Epoch (geology)

In geochronology, an epoch is a subdivision of the geologic timescale that is longer than an age but shorter than a period.

Foraminifera

Foraminifera (Latin for "hole bearers"; informally called "forams") are members of a phylum or class of amoeboid protists characterized by streaming granular ectoplasm for catching food and other uses; and commonly an external shell (called a "test") of diverse forms and materials.

Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point

A Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point, abbreviated GSSP, is an internationally agreed upon reference point on a stratigraphic section which defines the lower boundary of a stage on the geologic time scale.

International Commission on Stratigraphy

The International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS), sometimes referred to by the unofficial name "International Stratigraphic Commission" is a daughter or major subcommittee grade scientific daughter organization that concerns itself with stratigraphy, geological, and geochronological matters on a global scale.

Middle Miocene disruption

The term Middle Miocene disruption, alternatively the Middle Miocene extinction or Middle Miocene extinction peak, refers to a wave of extinctions of terrestrial and aquatic life forms that occurred around the middle of the Miocene, roughly 14 million years ago, during the Langhian stage of the Miocene.

Miocene

The Miocene is the first geological epoch of the Neogene Period and extends from about (Ma).

Plankton

Plankton (singular plankter) are the diverse collection of organisms that live in large bodies of water and are unable to swim against a current.

Series (stratigraphy)

Series are subdivisions of rock layers based on the age of the rock and formally defined by international conventions of the geological timescale.

Serravallian

The Serravallian is in the geologic timescale an age or a stage in the middle Miocene epoch/series, that spans the time between 13.65 ± 0.05 Ma and 11.608 ± 0.005 Ma (million years ago).

Stage (stratigraphy)

In chronostratigraphy, a stage is a succession of rock strata laid down in a single age on the geologic timescale, which usually represents millions of years of deposition.

Geologic time scale and Langhian Comparison

Geologic time scale has 602 relations, while Langhian has 48. As they have in common 13, the Jaccard index is 2.00% = 13 / (602 + 48).
