The palaeobiological significance of clustering in acritarchs: a case study from the early Cambrian of North Greenland

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 67, Issue 5, September/October 2024.
Abstract Aggregated clusters of acritarchs are relatively common among assemblages of organic‐walled microfossils, yet such associations have received relatively little attention. Here we report a new diversity of acritarch clusters from the early Cambrian Buen Formation of North Greenland.

Marcasite at the Permian‐Triassic Transition

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 377-399., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Acritarchs from the Duolbagáisá Formation (Cambrian Series 2–Miaolingian) on the Digermulen Peninsula, Finnmark, Arctic Norway: towards a high-resolution Cambrian chronostratigraphy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
New information on acritarchs from the Duolbagáisá Formation, Digermulen Peninsula, Arctic Norway, enable recognition of the three Cambrian Series 2 acritarch-based zones: the Skiagia ornata–Fimbriaglomerella membranacea, Heliosphaeridium dissimilare ...

The evolution of reproduction in Ediacaran-Cambrian metazoans. [PDF]

open access: yesBiol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT The evolution of reproductive style is a fundamental aspect of metazoan life history but has not been explored holistically through the Ediacaran–Cambrian rise of metazoans. Recent molecular clock analyses based on only unequivocal metazoan fossil calibrations suggest that Porifera were present by at least 590 million years ago (Ma), all major

Acritarchs: a review

open access: yes, 1993
1. Acritarchs are a polyphyletic group of unicellular organisms, essentially marine and fossil, with a very resistant organic membrane; the majority probably represent the cysts of microscopic, extinct eukaryote algae. This review gives a general account

Microbially Mediated Intracellular Barite Mineralization: Evidence From an Early Ediacaran Microfossil in the Doushantuo Formation of South China

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Barite serves as a key proxy for reconstructing paleo‐oceanic productivity and chemistry in modern and ancient marine sediments. Although contemporary barite precipitation involves biological mediation, the mechanisms responsible for ancient barite formation remain unclear.

Lower Ordovican acritarchs from successions in England and North Wales. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
One hundred and thirty eight acritarch taxa are described from the organic residues of samples collected in North Wales, Shropshire, and the Lake District. The species occur in one or more of 16 microfloral assemblages, selected from 88 prepared samples.
