Redox-Controlled Ammonium Storage and Overturn in Ediacaran Oceans

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
As a key nutrient, nitrogen can limit primary productivity and carbon cycle dynamics, but also evolutionary progress. Given strong redox-dependency of its molecular speciation, environmental conditions can control nitrogen localization and ...

C- AND Sr-ISOTOPE CHEMOSTRATIGRAPHY OF THE UPPER PROTEROZOIC – LOWER CAMBRIAN TRANSITIONAL DEPOSITS IN THE LENA-ANABAR TROUGH (NORTHEASTERN SIBERIAN PLATFORM)

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2023
Studies have been made of the carbon and strontium isotope composition in carbonate sediments of the Khorbusuonka group and Kessyusa formation corresponding to the Upper Vendian in deep Khastakhskaya-930 and Burskaya-341-0 boreholes at the northeastern ...

Stratigraphy of the Khuvsgul Group, Mongolia

open access: yesMongolian Geoscientist, 2021
The Khuvsgul Group (Khuvsgul Province, Mongolia) is a Late Neoproterozoic to Cambrian carbonate-dominated succession that includes minor glacial diamictite and one of the largest known ore-grade phosphate deposits in the world.

Increase in metazoan ecosystem engineering prior to the Ediacaran–Cambrian boundary in the Nama Group, Namibia [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
The disappearance of the soft-bodied Ediacara biota at the Ediacaran–Cambrian boundary potentially represents the earliest mass extinction of complex life, although the precise driver(s) of this extinction remain unresolved.

Mineralogy, petrography, geochemistry of magnetite ore and sulfide minerals and the possible model of mineralization at Anomaly#3, Gol-e-Gohar, iron mine, Sirjan, Kerman [PDF]

open access: yesپترولوژی, 2019
The Gol-e-Gohar anomaly#3 of Sirjan was initially formed by synchronous submarine basaltic volcanism and sedimentary rocks (basalt, shale, carbonates, sandstone, marl, chert-iron hydroxide-oxides) during Neoproterozoic (Ediacaran) and subsequently ...

Combined Magnetostratigraphy From Three Localities of the Rainstorm Member of the Johnnie Formation in California and Nevada, United States Calibrated by Cyclostratigraphy: A 13 R/Ma Reversal Frequency for the Ediacaran

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
A combined magnetostratigraphy for the Rainstorm Member of the Ediacaran Johnnie Formation was constructed using the sediment accumulation rates determined by rock magnetic cyclostratigraphy for three localities of the Rainstorm Member to provide a high ...

Enduring evolutionary embellishment of cloudinids in the Cambrian

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
The Ediacaran–Cambrian transition and the following Cambrian Explosion are among the most fundamental events in the evolutionary history of animals. Understanding these events is enhanced when phylogenetic linkages can be established among animal fossils

Engineering the Cambrian explosion: the earliest bioturbators as ecosystem engineers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
By applying modern biological criteria to trace fossil types and assessing burrow morphology, complexity, depth, potential burrow function and the likelihood of bioirrigation, we assign ecosystem engineering impact (EEI) values to the key ichnotaxa in ...

Causes and consequences of end-Ediacaran extinction: An update

open access: yesCambridge Prisms: Extinction, 2023
Since the 1980s, the existence of one or more extinction events in the late Ediacaran has been the subject of debate. Discussion surrounding these events has intensified in the last decade, in concert with efforts to understand drivers of global change ...
