Permo-Triassic Buildups and Late Triassic Ecologic Reefs

1975
The Permian Reef Complex, surrounding the Delaware basin of West Texas and New Mexico, and the Middle Triassic (Ladinian) of the Dolomites of the South Alps are two of the worlds greatest and best known ancient carbonate buildups. They are closely related in age and organic content.

Climatic and biotic change in the late Triassic

Journal of the Geological Society, 1990
Generally arid conditions that pervaded much of Europe and North America during the late Triassic were interrupted by a wet monsoonal climatic phase during Middle and Late Carnian times. Extensive fluviatile sandstones deposited at this time throughout the region, occur within a thick sequence of playa-lake mudstones.

Late Permian to Early Triassic magnetostratigraphy

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1991
A Late Permian to Early Triassic magnetostratigraphic reference section is presented. The Lower Triassic part is based on results from marine limestone sections in South China published earlier [1,2]. Reliable new Permian data are added here which have been collected in the Nammal gorge (Salt Range, Northwest Pakistan) where marine sediments have been ...

Late Triassic Global Plate Tectonics

2017
The Late Triassic was the time of the Early Cimmerian and Indosinian orogenies that closed the Paleotethys Ocean, which occurred earlier in the Alpine-Carpathian-Mediterranean area, later in the Eastern Europe-Central Asia and latest in the South-East Asia. The Indochina Southeastern Asian and Qiangtang plates were sutured to South China.

The Late Triassic Mass Extinction Event

2016
The Late Triassic extinction event is recognized as one of the five largest such events of the Phanerozoic and is now generally believed to have been caused by global warming and concomitant environmental changes triggered by emplacement of the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province.

Late Triassic radiolarians of southern Cyprus

Paleontological Journal, 2007
Radiolarians from the Upper Triassic of the allochthonous Mamonia Assemblage of southern Cyprus are considered. The Phasoula Formation, composed of basic volcanics, with lenses and interbeds of micritic limestones and cherts, contains (1) a Lower Norian assemblage with Capnodoce crystallina-Trialatus robustus, which also includes Capnodoce anapetes De ...

Late Triassic-Late Cretaceous Paleogeography of Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico

2016
Abstract Most plate tectonic models for the opening of the Gulf of Mexico focus on the fit of different crustal blocks, regional faults, the areal extent of abnormal oceanic crust, transitional crust, and continental crust, as well as on today's geophysical data, but only a few include paleogeographic data.

A Late Triassic Trove of Fossil Plants

Science, 2001
Although it could be assumed from Erik Stokstad's News Focus article “Utah's fossil trove beckons, and tests, researchers” (5 Oct., p. [41][1]) that the only fossils found in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in southern Utah are the remains of dinosaurs, mammals, and ...

Late Triassic volcanism of the Ipswich Basin

2011
The Ipswich Basin, an extensive Late Triassic basin that straddles the Queensland-New South Wales border in eastern Australia, contains a basal sequence of felsic and mafic volcanic rocks, which, together with the Agnes Water Volcanics, Aranbanga Beds, Mount Byron Volcanics, Muncon Volcanics, North Arm Volcanics, and numerous plutons, form a major ...
