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.

Chemical, Mineralogical and Isotopic Studies of Diagenesis of Carbonate and Clastic Sediments [PDF]
Diagenesis of carbonates and clastic sediments encompasses the biochemical, mechanical, and chemical changes that occur in sediments subsequent to deposition and prior to low-grade metamorphism.

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)

Controls of depositional facies and diagenetic alterations on reservoir quality of the Fahliyan Formation in the Central Zagros area [PDF]
The Fahliyan Formation is a member of the Khami Group with Neocomian–Barremian age. In two surface sections in the Izeh Zone and two wells of the southern Dezful Embayment, it includes 12 microfacies deposited on four facies belts as tidal flat, inner ...

Testing the impact of diagenesis on the delta O-18 and delta C-13 of benthic foraminiferal calcite from a sediment burial depth transect in the equatorial Pacific [PDF]
Stable oxygen and carbon isotope (O-18 and C-13) values measured in foraminiferal calcite are one of the primary tools used in paleoceanography. Diagenetic recrystallization of foraminiferal calcite can act to reset primary isotopic values, but its ...
