Modelling the Late Devonian Climate: Implications for evolution and extinction

open access: yes, 2021
The Devonian period (419.2 - 358.9 Ma) was characterised by a warm greenhouse climate which transitioned towards glaciation throughout the Late Devonian. This period in Earth’s history was punctuated by repeated environmental and biotic crises.

Stages of development of the Middle-Late Devonian ICHTHYOFAUNA (Placodermi: Antiarchi) from the northern Eurasia

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка, 2019
Three stages, namely Middle Devonian (I), Early Late Devonian (II) and Late Late Devonian (III), are distin-guished in the evolution of antiarchs (Placodermi, Antiarchi) in the Middle-Late Devonian of Northern Eurasia.

The Early Devonian (Emsian) acrotretid microbrachiopod Opsiconidion minor Popov, 1981, from the Alaska/Yukon Territory border and Novaya Zemlya [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2020
New records of the poorly known acrotretid (Biernatidae) microbrachiopod Opsiconidion minor Popov are described from middle Emsian strata of the Ogilvie Formation in east-central Alaska and the adjacent Yukon Territory, Canada, and compared with new ...

A large Middle Devonian eubrachythoracid ‘placoderm’ (Arthrodira) jaw from northern Gondwana

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2021
For the understanding of the evolution of jawed vertebrates and jaws and teeth, ‘placoderms’ are crucial as they exhibit an impressive morphological disparity associated with the early stages of this process.

Correction of two Upper Paleozoic stratigraphic units in the Tianshan Mountains region, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and implications on the Late Paleozoic evolution of Tianshan tectonic complex, Northwest China

open access: yesJournal of Palaeogeography, 2015
The present paper addresses two tectonostratigraphic concerns on the Late Paleozoic Tianshan tectonic complex (TTC), Xinjiang, Northwest (NW) China: (1) stratigraphic succession and age constraint of the Bayingou ophiolite mélange, eastern Tianshan ...

DataSheet1_High-Resolution Late Devonian Magnetostratigraphy From the Canning Basin, Western Australia: A Re-Evaluation.pdf

open access: yes, 2021
Late Devonian time was a period of rapid upheaval in the Earth system, including climate change, sea level changes, widespread ocean anoxia, and the Frasnian-Famennian mass extinction; the cause(s) of these changes remain(s) uncertain.

Functional consequences of Palaeozoic reef collapse

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Biogenic reefs have been hotspots of biodiversity and evolutionary novelty throughout the Phanerozoic. The largest reef systems in Earth’s history occurred in the Devonian period, but collapsed during the Late Devonian Mass Extinction.

Biostratigraphy of the Upper Devonian-Lower Carboniferous deposits in Mighan section, northeast Shahrood, Eastern Alborz [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2019
The Devonian/Carboniferous (DC) transition is characterized by several transgressive/regressive cycles which led to a widespread ocean anoxia known as the Hangenberg Black Shale Event (HBS), close to the D/C boundary a major sea-level fall (Hangenberg ...

Broad snouted cladoselachian with sensory specialization at the base of modern chondrichthyans

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2023
Throughout the Silurian and Devonian, cartilaginous fish successively evolved their specialized skeletal and dental characteristics, and increasingly refined their sensory systems. The Late Devonian shark taxon Maghriboselache mohamezanei gen. et sp.
