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.

A revised northern European Turonian (Upper Cretaceous) dinoflagellate cyst biostratigraphy: Integrating palynology and carbon isotope events [PDF]
Organic walled dinoflagellate cyst (dinocyst) assemblage data are presented for a new Turonian regional reference core (Bch-1) drilled at Běchary in the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin, east-central Czech Republic.

ABSTRACT Detailed analysis of Lutetian–Bartonian deposits in the Paris Basin (‘Marnes et Caillasses’ Formation) provides new evidence of concomitant magnesian fibrous clays (palygorskite and sepiolite) and early microcrystalline dolomite. Although relatively uncommon in sedimentary archives, palygorskite and sepiolite are found in a wide range of ...

Ultra-shallow-marine anoxia in an Early Triassic shallow-marine clastic ramp (Spitsbergen) and the suppression of benthic radiation [PDF]
Lower Triassic marine strata in Spitsbergen accumulated on a mid-to-high latitude ramp in which high-energy foreshore and shoreface facies passed offshore into sheet sandstones of probable hyperpycnite origin.

The Bisperode section is one of the most expanded and complete sections with shallow‐marine Oxfordian strata in the LSB. This study provides a reference record for shallow‐marine settings and allows for the correlation of the strata from the LSB with Oxfordian deposits distributed elsewhere in the world.

Earthquake slip surfaces identified by biomarker thermal maturity within the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake fault zone. [PDF]
Extreme slip at shallow depths on subduction zone faults is a primary contributor to tsunami generation by earthquakes. Improving earthquake and tsunami risk assessment requires understanding the material and structural conditions that favor earthquake ...

Abstract The Australian Cambrian stratigraphic record is one of the most complete for any continent. However, there is a general division, with older Cambrian rocks in South Australia (predominantly Terreneuvian, Stage 2 to Miaolingian, Wuliuan) and younger rocks in northern Australia (mostly latest Series 2, Stage 4 and younger), with minimal ...

The Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) is marked by a prominent negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE) of 3–5‰ that has a characteristic rapid onset, stable body, and recovery to near pre‐CIE isotopic composition.
