Abstract: This document is a research article focused on Yap Island in the Philippine Sea, covering the geological age constraints on the obduction of ophiolitic rocks. The time period discussed is not explicitly stated but relates to the geological history of the region. The work primarily examines nannofossils as a method for dating these geological formations. Specific taxa of nannofossils are identified, contributing to the understanding of the geological timeline. The ecological systems involved are related to the marine geology of Yap Island, with implications for the broader geological context of the Philippine Sea. The document does not reference any legal frameworks or specific agencies. The structural focus includes a detailed analysis of the geological processes involved in the obduction of ophiolitic rocks, with an emphasis on the stratigraphic and paleontological evidence derived from nannofossil studies.
