Abstract Most of the global climate changes are closely associated with volcanic activity. However, the link between global cooling during the Ordovician‐Silurian (O‐S) transition and volcanism remains unclear due to limited constraints on large volcanic events before, during, and after the peak of the Hirnantian glaciation (PHG). Here, we present high‐

High‐Resolution Tracking of Baltica's Northward Drift in the Ordovician
Abstract We investigated the paleogeography of Baltica via a paleomagnetic study of 471‐454 Ma limestones from the Siljan (Sweden) impact structure. Stepwise thermal demagnetization isolated a well‐defined magnetization component that unblocks up to the Curie temperature of magnetite and passes fold and reversal tests, indicative of a primary ...

Clostridium difficile and gut health: Bacteria, the gut microbiome, and diet
This review explores the mechanisms underlying Clostridium difficile infection (CDI), focusing on the pathogen's life cycle and its pathogenicity within the host. It further explores the interactions between the gut microbiome, gut metabolites, and CDI. Additionally, the review highlights dietary modulation as a promising strategy to restore gut health,

Exceptional outcrop exposures of the Cloridorme Formation, Quebec, Canada, offer a rare opportunity to quantify the lateral continuity of event beds and elements of a basin‐plain depositional environment. Eighty‐two per cent of the mapped event beds are present across a 530 m outcrop transect parallel to depositional dip. However, even in this overall ‘

Late Ordovician ironstone and its relation to ocean redox instability, climate and glaciation
Abstract The Upper Ordovician (Katian) Neda Formation, a phosphatic ironstone, records a widespread but short‐lived shift to ferruginous waters across a vast epicontinental area. Lithofacies and stratigraphic reappraisal indicate that Neda ironstone deposition occurred on a storm‐dominated ramp when coastal upwelling emplaced eutrophic ferruginous ...

ABSTRACT An ostracod assemblage from the Late Ordovician (Katian) Phu Ngu Formation of northern Vietnam, South China paleoplate, yields typical Baltic and Laurentian‐affinity genera together with some endemic forms. Detailed paleontological and sedimentary analysis of the Phu Ngu Formation suggests it was deposited in a deeper marine forearc setting ...

Black Shale Lithofacies of the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation in the Southeast Margin of Chongqing, China
China’s shale gas has undergone nearly 20 years of exploration; unconventional oil and gas geological evaluation theories and research methods have been greatly enriched, but how to quickly, conveniently, and accurately identify the sweet spots of shale gas is still puzzling many researchers. This study focuses on the black shale of the Wufeng–Longmaxi

Revisión de las localidades fosilíferas del departamento de Antioquia, Colombia
Aunque solamente el 11.5% del área de Antioquia tiene afloramientos de rocas sedimentarias, la revisión bibliográfica y elaboración de un mapa digital de las localidades fosilíferas (27), permite concluir que esta región tiene un gran potencial ...

Unconventional tight/shale gas reservoirs have gained significant attention in the energy sector. The importance of temperature and pressure in shale imbibition lies in their profound influence on the kinetics, rate, and ultimate amount of water uptake, which directly impacts the efficiency of gas production.
