Abstract
The revolution of the paleotemperatures of the Russian Platform over t he Late Jurassic are inferred from stable isotope measurements on bele mnite rostra. The delta(18)O data indicate temperature variations rang ing from 7 to 18 degrees C during the Oxfordian and a stable temperatu re ca 17 degrees over Kimmeridgian and Volgian. The results are compar ed to data from the literature in the frame of the paleogeographic rec onstruction of Europe for the Late Jurassic. (C) Academie des sciences /Elsevier, Paris.
