The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 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.

High-precision U-Pb ages in the early Tithonian to early Berriasian and implications for the numerical age of the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The numerical age of the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary has been controversial and difficult to determine. In this study, we present high-precision U-Pb geochronological data around the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary in two distinct sections from different ...
