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.

Segmented prediction of TOC based on lithology: a case study of the lower sub-member of the third member of the Eocene Shahejie Formation, Dongying Sag, Bohai Bay Basin

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi, 2021
The continental mud shale has a strong heterogeneity, and the prediction of its mineral composition, TOC (total organic carbon content) and other parameters is critical for the evaluation and optimization of continental shale oil and gas abundance.

Antarctic climate, Southern Ocean circulation patterns, and deep water formation during the Eocene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We assess early-to-middle Eocene seawater neodymium (Nd) isotope records from seven Southern Ocean deep-sea drill sites to evaluate the role of Southern Ocean circulation in long-term Cenozoic climate change.

Petrology and geochemistry of Eocene volcanic rocks from southeast of Khur (Isfahan province, Central Iran)

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology, 2022
Introduction Subduction-related magmas are characterized by enrichment of large ion lithophile elements (LILEs), light rare earth elements (LREEs) and depletion in high field strength elements (HFSEs) (Harangi et al., 2007). These geochemical signatures
