Discovery of trimerellide brachiopod Gasconsia from the Ordovician of Estonia [PDF]
In this study, the first trimerellide brachiopods from Estonia are described. They occur in the uppermost Katian (Upper Ordovician) shallow shelf environments and represent some of the largest Ordovician brachiopods.

Late Ordovician (Hirnantian) shelly fossils from New Zealand and their significance [PDF]
Abstract A poorly preserved fauna of brachiopods, trilobites, corals, molluscs, bryozoans, echinoderms, and ostracods is described from Wangapeka Valley, northwest South Island. It can be dated to the latest Ordovician Hirnantian Stage, equivalent to Bolindian Bo4‐Bo5, by immediately underlying graptolite faunas ...

Abstract Widespread organic‐rich shales are associated with perturbations in productivity or preservation conditions; however, the major controlling factors, especially the phosphorus (P) and iron (Fe) interactions and their impacts on organic carbon burial in the paleolake ecosystem remain poorly understood.

Hirnantian glacial and deglacial record in SW Djado Basin (NE Niger). [PDF]
Pluridisciplinary fieldwork highlights features generated by an extended ice-sheet in the Djado Basin during the Hirnantian. Two glacial palaeovalley systems associated with glacial pavements and separated by thin glaciomarine interstadial series are revealed.

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‐

The Hirnantian is an important time in Earth history as it includes one of the major episodes of continental glaciation and marine mass extinction (e.g. Brenchley et alii, 1994).
