Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

“Tiny Wiggles” in the Late Miocene Red Clay Deposits in the North‐East of the Tibetan Plateau
Small amplitude or short period geomagnetic anomalies known as “tiny wiggles” (TWs) are often hard to identify because of magnetic signal smoothing in the marine record of geomagnetic reversals.

Magnetostratigraphy of the Lower Triassic beds from Chaohu(China) and its implications for the Induan–Olenekian stage boundary. [PDF]
A magnetostratigraphic study was performed on the lower 44 m of the West Pingdingshan section near Chaohu city, (Anhui province, China) in order to provide a magnetic polarity scale for the early Triassic.

Intercalibration of Boreal and Tethyan timescales: the magneto-biostratigraphy of the Middle Triassic and the latest Early Triassic from Spitsbergen, Arctic Norway [PDF]
An integrated bio-magnetostratigraphic study of the latest Early Triassic to the upper parts of the Middle Triassic, at Milne Edwardsfjellet in central Spitsbergen, Svalbard, allows a detailed correlation of Boreal and Tethyan biostratigraphies.

Magnetostratigraphy concepts, definitions, and applications [PDF]
The most characteristic feature of the Earth's magnetic field is that it reverses polarity at irregu- lar intervals, producing a 'bar code' of alternating normal (north directed) and reverse (south directed) polar- ity chrons with characteristic durations.

The calcareous nannofossils and magnetostratigraphic results from the Upper Tithonian-Berriasian of Feodosiya region (Eastern Crimea) [PDF]
This article is concerned with nannofossil study of Tithonian-Berriasian sediments of Eastern Crimea. The NJT 16, NJT 17a, NJT 17b, NKT, and NK 1 nannofossil zones were determined. The occurrence of Nannoconus kamptneri minor, one of the potential marker-
