Interglacial dust, ocean fertilisation and Neoproterozoic earth oxygenation

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 654-674, April 2025.
Mineral dust is an integral part of modern ocean nutrient supply. It is originated mainly in deserts and by glacial processes. Given the global scale of the Neoproterozoic glaciations, we suggest that mineral dust formed during snowball events were blown to oceans, sustaining life, promoting CO2 sequestration and contributing to the oxygenation of ...

The role of wild palms in agroforestry systems in the Neotropics: A review

People and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 2200-2227, December 2024.
Abstract Wild palms are among the most important plants in the Neotropics due to their wide distribution, species richness and cultural relevance for humans. In addition to their presence in forests, these plants also occur in anthropogenic systems throughout their range of distribution, but their role in these systems is often overlooked.

Clay Minerals and Continental‐Scale Remagnetization: A Case Study of South American Neoproterozoic Carbonates

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 129, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract The Neoproterozoic carbonate rocks of the Araras Group (Amazon Craton) and the Sete‐Lagoas and Salitre Formations (São Francisco Craton) share a statistically indistinguishable single‐polarity (reversed) characteristic direction. This direction is associated with paleomagnetic poles that do not align with the expected directions for primary ...
