Timing and pacing of the Late Devonian mass extinction event regulated by eccentricity and obliquity
The Late Devonian envelops one of Earth’s big five mass extinction events at the Frasnian–Famennian boundary (374 Ma). Environmental change across the extinction severely affected Devonian reef-builders, besides many other forms of marine life.

The Early Devonian (Emsian) acrotretid microbrachiopod Opsiconidion minor Popov, 1981, from the Alaska/Yukon Territory border and Novaya Zemlya [PDF]
New records of the poorly known acrotretid (Biernatidae) microbrachiopod Opsiconidion minor Popov are described from middle Emsian strata of the Ogilvie Formation in east-central Alaska and the adjacent Yukon Territory, Canada, and compared with new ...

The role of conodonts in the global stratigraphic correlation on example of southern Siberia (Russia) and eastern Serbia [PDF]
Conodonts are very precise tools for global stratigraphic correlation of Devonian deposits. They can be correlated at the level of standard conodont zones even for basins having very different geological structure.

Early Cenozoic Eurekan strain partitioning and decoupling in central Spitsbergen, Svalbard [PDF]
The present study of field, petrological, exploration well, and seismic data describes backward-dipping duplexes comprised of phyllitic coal and bedding-parallel décollements and thrusts localized along lithological transitions in tectonically thickened ...

Devonian climate, sea level and evolutionary events: an introduction
The face of Planet Earth has changed significantly through geological time. Dynamic processes active today, such as plate tectonics and climate change, have shaped the Earth’s surface and impacted biodiversity patterns from the beginning.

Devonian in Turkey — a reviewThe Devonian Period is represented in Turkey by almost complete non-metamorphic sections of more than 1000 meters, which exhibit varying lithofacial associations. They are parts of thick Paleozoic sedimentary successions in the Pontides, Taurides and Arabian Plate.
