The Paleogene is notable in the context of offshore oil drilling, and especially in Gulf of Mexico oil exploration, where it is usually referred to as the " Lower Tertiary ".

Tertiary structure is generally stabilized by nonlocal interactions, most commonly the formation of a hydrophobic core, but also through salt bridges, hydrogen bonds, disulfide bonds, and even posttranslational modifications.

Tertiary is an officially deprecated but still widely used term for a geologic period from 65 million to 2. 6 million years ago, a time span that lies between the superseded Secondary period and the Quaternary.

Tertiary structure is considered to be largely determined by the protein's primary structure-the sequence of amino acids of which it is composed.

Tertiary education, also referred to as third stage, third level, and post-secondary education, is the educational level following the completion of a school providing a secondary education.

Tertiary education levels are higher, while the population is younger.

A large part of Kenya is underlain by Precambrian basement, while the Kenya rift basin ( a typical extensional basin ) hosts Tertiary volcanics that cover Mesozoic sediments ( Recently these sediments have been considered for oil exploration ).

Genetic divergence of mangrove lineages from terrestrial relatives, in combination with fossil evidence, suggests mangrove diversity is limited by evolutionary transition into the stressful marine environment, and the number of mangrove lineages has increased steadily over the Tertiary with little global extinction.

Tertiary alkanol reacts with hydrochloric acid directly to produce tertiary chloroalkane, but if primary or secondary alkanol is used, an activator such as zinc chloride is needed.

There were 2 vocational upper Secondary classes and were 5 upper Secondary classes, with 40 upper Secondary students and 3 vocational upper Secondary students The municipality had no non-university Tertiary classes, but there were 3 specialized Tertiary students who attended classes in another municipality.

Little of the soil continuum dates back beyond the Tertiary period and most soils and land surfaces are no older than the Pleistocene Epoch.

Like most other epizoic species, there is no fossil record, but they are probably no older than late Tertiary.

Originating in the Tertiary ( Neogene ) and Quaternary ( Pleistocene ) Periods, the llanos ( plains ) of Apure are formed by sediments of little or no consolidation, with sandy and clayey deposits built up by floods in recent times.

Tertiary characters of no rank wear simple clothing without embroidery.

" Tertiary " being no longer recognized as a formal time or rock unit by the International Commission on Stratigraphy, the K-T event is now called the Cretaceous — Paleogene ( or K-Pg ) extinction event by many researchers.

The Quaternary Period was officially recognized by the International Commission on Stratigraphy in June 2009, and the former Tertiary Period was officially disused in 2004.

The family is recognized in Antarctic fossils from Cretaceous to Tertiary lower ( about 88 Ma ).

The terms Neogene System ( formal ) and upper Tertiary System ( informal ) describe the rocks deposited during the Neogene Period.

The terms ' Paleogene System ' ( formal ) and ' lower Tertiary System ' ( informal ) are applied to the rocks deposited during the ' Paleogene Period '.

* STAT, Special Tertiary Admissions Test, a set of tests aimed at assessing the critical reasoning abilities of university applicants who lack other formal qualifications

In 1955, Garald G. Parker noted the hydrologic and lithologic similarities of the Tertiary carbonate formations in southeast Florida, concluded that they represented a single hydrologic unit, and named that unit the " Floridan aquifer.

Additionally, all six turtle families in existence at the end of the Cretaceous survived into the Tertiary and are represented by current species.

Tertiary explosives, also called blasting agents, are so insensitive to shock that they cannot be reliably detonated by practical quantities of primary explosive, and instead require an intermediate explosive booster of secondary explosive.

The 19th century discoveries of a vast and previously unexpected extinct Tertiary fauna of North America, as interpreted by paleontologists Leidy, Cope, and Marsh, aided understanding of the early history of this family.

In 2006 ICS and INQUA reached a compromise that made Quaternary a subera, subdividing Cenozoic into the old classical Tertiary and Quaternary, a compromise that was rejected by International Union of Geological Sciences because it split both Neogene and Pliocene in two.

For example, the discovery by Luis Alvarez and Walter Alvarez of an iridium-rich layer at the Cretaceous – Tertiary boundary made asteroid impact and volcanism the most favored explanations for the Cretaceous – Paleogene extinction event.

It was introduced by Jules Desnoyers in 1829 for sediments of France's Seine Basin that seemed clearly to be younger than Tertiary Period rocks.

Once seriously questioned, the intermediates did not wait for the next Pan African Congress two years hence, but were officially rejected in 1965 ( again on an advisory basis ) by Burg Wartenstein Conference # 29, Systematic Investigation of the African Later Tertiary and Quarternary, a prestigious conference in anthropology held by the Wenner-Gren Foundation, at Burg Wartenstein Castle, which it then owned in Austria, attended by the same key scholars that attended the Pan African Congress, including Louis Leakey and Mary Leakey, who was delivering a pilot presentation of her typological analysis of Early Stone Age tools, to be included in her 1971 contribution to Olduvai Gorge, " Excavations in Beds I and II, 1960-1963.

During the Cenozoic ( Tertiary about 65 to 1. 6 million years ) folding, faulting and uplifting, accompanied by volcanic activity and intrusion of igneous rocks was related to major continental collision between the larger Arabian and Eurasian plates ( e. g. Robertson & Dixon, 1984 ).

The term Tertiary was first used by Giovanni Arduino during the mid-18th century.

Historically, all fossil Onychophora and lobopods were lumped into the taxon Xenusia, further subdivided by some authors to the Paleozoic Udeonychophora and the Mesozoic / Tertiary Ontonychophora ; living Onychophora were termed Euonychophora.
