Early Triassic marine biotic recovery: the predators' perspective. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Examining the geological past of our planet allows us to study periods of severe climatic and biological crises and recoveries, biotic and abiotic ecosystem fluctuations, and faunal and floral turnovers through time. Furthermore, the recovery dynamics of

A Highly Diverse Olenekian Brachiopod Fauna from the Nanpanjiang Basin, South China, and Its Implications for the Early Triassic Biotic Recovery [PDF]
Biology, 2023 As one of the predominant benthic organisms in the Palaeozoic, brachiopod was largely eliminated in the Permian–Triassic boundary mass extinction, and then highly diversified in the Middle Triassic.

Mercury anomalies and the timing of biotic recovery following the end-Triassic mass extinction [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 The association between Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP) eruption volatiles and the end-Triassic mass extinction remains ambiguous. Here, the authors present mercury and palaeontological evidence from the same archive and show that significant ...

Recurrent and Long-Term Oceanic Anoxia Contributed to Aborted Biotic Recovery Following the Permian–Triassic Crisis [PDF]
BiologyThe influence of ocean chemistry on Early Triassic biotic recovery is poorly understood in the Chaohu Area. Here, we evaluate the influence of ocean chemistry following the Permian–Triassic crisis using pyrite content, δ13Corg, and S isotopic composition

Subsequent biotic crises delayed marine recovery following the late Permian mass extinction event in northern Italy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The late Permian mass extinction event was the largest biotic crisis of the Phanerozoic and has the longest recovery interval of any extinction event.

Clay minerals evidences for cold-warm fluctuations in the Early Silurian. [PDF]
PLoS ONEThe Late Ordovician and Early Silurian transition is an important period of geological evolution, attracting increasing attentions. However, the cause for the biotic recovery from the end-Ordovician mass extinction has remained controversial.

A new perleidid neopterygian fish from the Early Triassic (Dienerian, Induan) of South China, with a reassessment of the relationships of Perleidiformes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Neopterygii is the largest clade of ray-finned fishes, including Teleostei, Holostei, and their closely related fossil taxa. This clade was first documented in the Early Carboniferous and underwent rapid evolutionary radiation during the Early to Middle ...

A large marine eosauropterygian reptile with affinities to nothosauroid diapsids from the Early Triassic of British Columbia, Canada [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2019 Sauropterygia, one of the main clades of Mesozoic marine reptiles, diversified shortly after the Permo-Triassic biotic crisis and afterwards remained one of the major components of Early Triassic and later Mesozoic marine ecosystems.
