Trends in Ocean S‐Isotopes May Be Influenced by Major LIP Events
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 341-376., 2021 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.

Uncovering the Neoproterozoic carbon cycle [PDF]
Nature, 2012 Interpretations of major climatic and biological events in Earth history are, in large part, derived from the stable carbon isotope records of carbonate rocks and sedimentary organic matter. Neoproterozoic carbonate records contain unusual and large negative isotopic anomalies within long periods (10-100 million years) characterized by δ(13)C in ...

Dynamics of the Neoproterozoic carbon cycle [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003 The existence of unusually large fluctuations in the Neoproterozoic (1,000–543 million years ago) carbon-isotopic record implies strong perturbations to the Earth's carbon cycle. To analyze these fluctuations, we examine records of both the isotopic content of carbonate carbon and the fractionation between carbonate and marine organic carbon ...

Current Biology, 2015 The Neoproterozoic era was arguably the most revolutionary in Earth history. Extending from 1000 to 541 million years ago, it stands at the intersection of the two great tracts of evolutionary time: on the one side, some three billion years of pervasively microbial 'Precambrian' life, and on the other the modern 'Phanerozoic' biosphere with its ...

Early Neoproterozoic limestones from the Gwna Group, Anglesey [PDF]
, 1998 Limestone megaclasts up to hundreds of metres in size are present within the Gwna Group mélange, North Wales, UK. The mélange has been interpreted as part of a Peri-Gondwanan fore-arc accretionary complex although the age of deposition remains ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The Ediacaran is a period characterized by the diversification of early animals and extensive neritic carbonate deposits. These deposits are still not well understood in terms of facies and carbon isotope composition (δ13C). In this study we focus on the

Chemostratigraphy of Neoproterozoic carbonates: implications for 'blind dating' [PDF]
, 2001 The delta C-13(carb) and Sr-87/Sr-86 secular variations in Neoproteozoic seawater have been used for the purpose of 'isotope stratigraphy' but there are a number of problems that can preclude its routine use.

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2019 Eastern part of the Central Taimyr belt is composed of Precambrian rocks penetrated by granites of the Snezhnaya complex (845–825 million years) and later overlain by mid‐Neoproterozoic sin‐ postorogenic sedimentary deposits of the Stanovaya‐Kolosova ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The Cambrian source rock is a key indicator that will guide future hydrocarbon explorations in ultra-deep strata. Despite its importance, the characteristics of paleotopography on the Precambrian basement and the distribution of source rocks above it ...

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018 The Sierra de Pie de Palo (Western Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina) in the Andean foreland is mainly formed by a Mesoproterozoic basement and an Ediacaran metasedimentary cover referred to as the Difunta Correa metasedimentary sequence.
