Alkenones have been widely used as proxies for the reconstruction of sea surface temperatures and of partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) in ancient periods. In modern oceans, these long-chain ketones are mainly produced by the coccolithophores Emiliania huxleyi and Gephyrocapsa oceanica. However, there is a huge gap between the first record of alkenonesin the Cretaceous (~120 Ma) and the first occurrence of the modern alkenone producers (< 2Ma). Thus, it seems crucial to identify ancient alkenone producers to ensure the applicability of environmental proxies based on these biomarkers in pre-Quaternary sediments. In this PhD thesis, three case studies are considered corresponding to key periods in the evolution history of the Noelaerhabdaceae fam...
