ASYNCHRONOUS DEVELOPMENT OF REEFS AND REEF-BUILDING BIOTA. PALEOZOIC
Известия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка, 2020 This work analyses the development of reefs, which represent thick morphologically expressed carbonate massifs created by the activity of frame-forming organisms. Major stages in the development of reefs include the periods of Early Cambrian, Ordovician,

Extent and duration of marine anoxia during the Frasnian– Famennian (Late Devonian) mass extinction in Poland, Germany, Austria and France [PDF]
, 2004 – The intensity and extent of anoxia during the two Kellwasser anoxic events has been investigated in a range of European localities using amultidisciplinary approach (pyrite framboid assay, gamma-ray spectrometry and sediment fabric analysis).

The fossil record of early tetrapods: worker effort and the end-Permian mass extinction [PDF]
, 2010 It is important to understand the quality of the fossil record of early tetrapods (Tetrapoda, minus Lissamphibia and Amniota) because of their key role in the transition of vertebrates from water to land, their dominance of terrestrial faunas for over ...

Phylogenetic Clustering of Origination and Extinction across the Late Ordovician Mass Extinction.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Mass extinctions can have dramatic effects on the trajectory of life, but in some cases the effects can be relatively small even when extinction rates are high.

Shared patterns in body size declines among crinoids during the Palaeozoic extinction events
Scientific Reports, 2021 Crinoids were among the most abundant marine benthic animals throughout the Palaeozoic, but their body size evolution has received little attention. Here, we compiled a comprehensive database on crinoid calyx biovolumes throughout the Palaeozoic. A model

Euxinic ocean during the Late Devonian mass extinction inferred from organic compounds [PDF]
Journal of Earth Science, 2010 There were five mass extinctions of Earth life during the past 500 million years. The second crisis of the “big five” mass extinctions occurred near the Frasnian/Famennian (F/F) boundary in the Late Devonian. This extinction impacted mainly oceanic regime and resulted in 21% of families and 50% of genera among oceanic life being wiped out (Sepkoski ...

Insight into tube-building behaviour and palaeoecology of some agglutinating worms from the Upper Devonian of Nevada, USA [PDF]
, 2015 Agglutinated worm tubes from the Upper Devonian of the Devils Gate section in Nevada, USA are reported for the first time, filling a major gap in their Palaeozoic fossil record.
