The Llandovery (Silurian) conodont species diversity on the Upper Yangtze Platform, South China [PDF]
Conodonts are one of the stratigraphically most important fossil groups in the Silurian Period. We examine the regional diversity dynamics of the Llandovery condonts on the Upper Yangtze Platform.

Tectonics, geology and origins of Te Riu‐a‐Māui / Zealandia
ABSTRACT Te Riu‐a‐Māui / Zealandia is a 95% submerged, five million square km southern hemisphere continent that includes the islands of New Zealand and New Caledonia. For the last 45 million years (Ma) Zealandia has been cut by the Pacific‐Australian plate boundary which today changes character from a west‐dipping subduction zone in the north to ...

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 ...
