Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 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.

Lethaia, EarlyView., 2021 Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

2200 million years of crustal evolution: The Baltic Shield [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1986 The crustal history of the Baltic shield is interpreted in the light of the plate tectonic concept. Five tectonic cycles, each characterized by special lithological and structural features, are distinguished: The Early Archean (> 2900 Ma), the Late ...
