Disentangling Continental Weathering During the Late Paleozoic Ice Age
Abstract The consumption of atmospheric CO2 through continental weathering played a critical role in shaping the evolution of the late Paleozoic Ice Age (LPIA), presumably driven by the Hercynian orogeny and the evolution of terrestrial plants. However, the relative impacts of these two major drivers to continental weathering remain poorly constrained.

Toarcian oceanic anoxic event: An assessment of global causes using belemnite C isotope records [PDF]
Two hypotheses have been proposed to explain simultaneous large negative excursions (up to 7% PeeDee belemnite) in bulk carbonate (delta(13)C(carb)) and organic carbon isotope records (delta(13)C(org)) from black shales marking the Toarcian oceanic ...
