Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021

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.

Landslide hazards in eastern Himalayas

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Geological Society, 2000
The Himalayas, with extreme variations in relief, are characterised by very steep slopes, harsh (i.e. cold and humid) climate and a dynamic geotectonic setting. These characteristics appear responsible for widespread slope failures and mass movements, which are often accentuated by various human activities.

Arthrobotrys blastospora sp. nov. (Orbiliomycetes): A Living Fossil Displaying Morphological Traits of Mesozoic Carnivorous Fungi

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
The evolution of carnivorous fungi in deep time is still poorly understood as their fossil record is scarce. The approximately 100-million-year-old Cretaceous Palaeoanellus dimorphus is the earliest fossil of carnivorous fungi ever discovered.
