The Miocene ignimbrite flare-up in the Pannonian Basin, which is located along a complex convergent plate boundary between Europe and Africa, provides a superb example of this interaction. In North Hungary, the famous Ipolytarnoc Fossil Site, often referred to as "ancient Pompeii", records a snapshot of rich Early Miocene life buried under thick ignimbrite cover. Here, we use a multi-technique approach to constrain the successive phases of a catastrophic silicic eruption (VEI >= 7) dated at 17.2 Ma. An event-scale reconstruction shows that the initial PDC phase was phreatomagmatic, affecting >= 1500 km(2) and causing the destruction of an interfingering terrestrial-intertidal environment at Ipolytarnoc. This was followed by pumice fall, and finally the emplacement of up to 40 m-thick ignimbrite that completely buried the site. However, unlike the seemingly similar AD 79 Vesuvius eruption that buried Pompeii by hot pyroclastic density currents, the presence of fallen but uncharred tree trunks, branches, and intact leaves in the basal pyroclastic deposits at Ipolytarnoc as well as rock paleomagnetic properties indicate a low-temperature pyroclastic event, that superbly preserved the coastal habitat, including unique fossil tracks.}, year = {2022}, eissn = {2045-2322}, orcid-numbers = {Karátson, Dávid/0000-0003-0386-1239; Biró, Tamás/0000-0001-5198-7210; Kiss, Balázs/0000-0003-0040-0656; Hencz, Mátyás/0000-0001-9716-5714; Márton Péterné Szalay, Emőke/0000-0002-2135-8867; Józsa, Sándor/0000-0001-8219-0044} } @article{MTMT:2728718, title = {Dynamics of the Terrestrial Mammals of Ipolytarnóc (Northern Hungary)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2728718}, author = {Hágen, András and Horváth, Dóra and Stromp, Márk}, doi = {10.1080/10420940.2014.934450}, journal-iso = {ICHNOS}, journal = {ICHNOS: AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PLANT AND ANIMAL TRACES}, volume = {21}, unique-id = {2728718}, issn = {1042-0940}, year = {2014}, eissn = {1563-5236}, pages = {205-210} } @article{MTMT:3189094, title = {Constraints on Miocene oceanography and climate in the Western and Central Paratethys: O-, Sr-, and Nd-isotope compositions of marine fish and mammal remains}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/3189094}, author = {Kocsis, László and Vennemann, TW and Hegner, E and Fontignie, D and Tütken, T}, doi = {10.1016/j.palaeo.2008.10.003}, journal-iso = {PALAEOGEOGR PALAEOCL}, journal = {PALAEOGEOGRAPHY PALAEOCLIMATOLOGY PALAEOECOLOGY}, volume = {271}, unique-id = {3189094}, issn = {0031-0182}, abstract = {The Paratethys evolved as a marginal sea during the Alpine-Himalayan orogeny in the Oligo-Miocene. Sediments from the northern Alpine Molasse Basin, the Vienna, and the Pannonian Basins located in the western and central part of the Paratethys thus provide unique information on regional changes in climate and oceanography during a period of active Alpine uplift. Oxygen isotope compositions of well-preserved phosphatic fossils recovered from the sediments support deposition under sub-tropical to warm-temperate climate with water temperatures of 14 to 28 °C for the Miocene. δ18O values of fossil shark teeth are similar to those reported for other Miocene marine sections and, using the best available estimates of their biostratigraphic age, show a variation until the end of the Badenian similar to that reported for composite global record. The 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios of the fossils follow the global Miocene seawater trend, albeit with a much larger scatter. The deviations of 87Sr/86Sr in the samples from the well-constrained seawater curve are interpreted as due to local input of terrestrially-derived Sr. Contribution of local sources is also reflected in the εNd values, consistent with input from ancient crystalline rocks (e.g., Bohemian Massif) and/or Mesozoic sediments with εNd < - 9. On the other hand, there is evidence for input from areas with Neogene volcanism as suggested by samples with elevated εNd values > - 7. Excluding samples showing local influence on the water column, an average εNd value of - 7.9 ± 0.5 may be inferred for the Miocene Paratethys. This value is indistinguishable from the εNd value of the contemporaneous Indian Ocean, supporting a dominant role of this ocean in the Western and Central Paratethys. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.

From the paleomagnetic point of view, the three complexes are significantly different in the area which comprises North Hungary and South Slovakia, since the oldest is characterized by about 80º, the middle by about 30º counterclockwise, while the youngest about 10º clockwise rotation with respect to the present North. The significant differences in declinations are attributed to block rotations, which affected the area in the time intervals of 18.5–17.5 Ma and 16–14.5 Ma. Earlier, a pilot study on three ignimbrite sites from Ipolytarnóc indicated only 30º of counterclockwise rotation, which suggested that the volcanism was younger than assumed, while the underlying Eggenburgian sediments showed the expected large rotation. Following up indications, we carried out a detailed paleomagnetic study at this locality on a large number of samples from the terrestrial sequence which covers the Eggenburgian sandstone. These were the “footprint sandstone” and the overlying unaltered, ignimbrites which represent three volcanic cycles separated by clastic sediments. Ignimbrites from the surrounding area were also tested. The results obtained are of high quality, statistically well defined on the site level and are highly consistent on the between-site level. The polarity is normal for the first two cycles and reversed for the youngest. The rotation angle indicated is about 30º. Thus, we conclude that the ignimbrites at the Ipolytarnóc area are indeed younger than 17.5 Ma, so they belong to the “Middle Tuff Complex” of the Pannonian Basin.}, year = {2007}, eissn = {1336-8052}, pages = {531-540}, orcid-numbers = {Márton Péterné Szalay, Emőke/0000-0002-2135-8867} } @article{MTMT:1855089, title = {Neogene to Quaternary Volcanism of the Carpathian-Pannonian Region - a review.}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1855089}, author = {Harangi, Szabolcs}, journal-iso = {ACTA GEOL HUNG}, journal = {ACTA GEOLOGICA HUNGARICA: A QUARTERLY OF THE HUNGARIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES}, volume = {44}, unique-id = {1855089}, issn = {0236-5278}, year = {2001}, pages = {223-258}, orcid-numbers = {Harangi, Szabolcs/0000-0003-2372-4581} } @book{MTMT:1902529, title = {The tide-influenced Pétervására Sandstone, early Miocene, northern Hungary.
