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.

LATE DEVONIAN CONODONTS FROM THE HOJEDK SECTION, KERMAN PROVINCE, SOUTHEASTERN IRAN
Conodonts (34 species and subspecies) from the Hojedk section north of Kerman span the late Givetian to early Famennian. The new data suggest that Devonian biostromes in central and eastern Iran were deposited on differing levels, and that the currently ...

Paleomagnetic studies of the Middle-Upper Devonian section of the Voronezh anteclise (Pavlov quarry) [PDF]
New paleomagnetic determinations are presented for a collection of rocks of the Middle-Upper Devonian (Givetian and Frasnian stages), sampled from an outcrop on the southwestern slope of the Pavlov granite quarry.

Palynology and geochemistry of the Frasnian global transgression in the Parnaíba Basin, Brazil [PDF]
Abstract An integrated palynological and geochemical approach has been initiated to date and to precise the geochemical events of the Pimenteiras Formation, in the Late Devonian from the Parnaiba Basin, Brazil. Based on good biostratigraphic markers and presence of index species among miospores, acritarchs and chitinozoa, the investigated sequences ...

Dolocretes in the Amata Formation of Latvia as indicators of climate aridification during the Givetian–Frasnian transition [PDF]
This study focuses on the description and interpretation of the origin of dolocretes and their siliciclastic host rocks in the upper part of the Amata Formation (Fm) in four exposures in Latvia. The dolocretes occur in at least four intervals.
