Neoproterozoic of Laurentia

2023
ABSTRACT Neoproterozoic to Cambrian isolation of Laurentia during the breakup of Rodinia was associated with multiple large igneous provinces, protracted multiphase rifting, and variable subsidence histories along different margin segments. In this contribution, we develop a paleogeographic model for the Neoproterozoic tectonic evolution

Neoproterozoic magmatism in the western and northern margins of the Yangtze Block (South China) controlled by slab subduction and subduction-transform-edge-propagator

Earth-Science Reviews, 2018
The South China Craton consists of the Yangtze and Cathaysia blocks that were welded together along the Jiangnan Fold Belt in the Neoproterozoic. The Neoproterozoic magmatism in the western and northern margins of the Yangtze Block is characterized by ...

Neoproterozoic postglacial paleoenvironment and hydrocarbon potential: A review and new insights from the Doushantuo Formation Sichuan Basin, China

, 2021
The Neoproterozoic provides an important record of glacial–postglacial paleoenvironments, organic carbon cycling, and hydrocarbon accumulation. Here, to better understand the environmental, sedimentary, and petroleum geological potential of the ...

Climate of the Neoproterozoic

Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2011
The Neoproterozoic is a time of transition between the ancient microbial world and the Phanerozoic, marked by a resumption of extreme carbon isotope fluctuations and glaciation after a billion-year absence. The carbon cycle disruptions are probably accompanied by changes in the stock of oxidants and connect to glaciations via changes in the ...

Geochronology of Neoproterozoic syn-rift magmatism in the Yangtze Craton, South China and correlations with other continents: evidence for a mantle superplume that broke up Rodinia

open access: yesPrecambrian Research, 2003
Neoproterozoic granitic intrusions in South China have traditionally been interpreted as related to orogenesis, marking thecratonisation of the Yangtze Block. However, a number of ca.

Global Meso-Neoproterozoic plate reconstruction and formation mechanism for Precambrian basins: Constraints from three cratons in China

Earth-Science Reviews, 2019
The Meso-Neoproterozoic period, sometimes referred to as the ‘boring billion’ or ‘Earth's middle age’, spans the interval between the formation of the Columbia and Rodina supercontinents. It is regarded as a stable era of the Earth.

Early Neoproterozoic tectonic evolution of the Erguna Terrane (NE China) and its paleogeographic location in Rodinia supercontinent: Insights from magmatic and sedimentary record

Gondwana Research, 2020
Owing to the lack of early Neoproterozoic geological and geochronological data, most Rodinia supercontinent reconstruction models do not include the Amuria Block in the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), and the Amuria Block were varying attributed to ...

U-Pb detrital zircon geochronology and provenance of Neoproterozoic sedimentary rocks in southern Siberia: New insights into breakup of Rodinia and opening of Paleo-Asian Ocean

Gondwana Research, 2019
We present the synthesis of new data on detrital zircon geochronology of the Neoproterozoic strata of the southern part of the Siberian craton as well as a comprehensive analysis of previously published stratigraphic, sedimentological and ...

Learning to tell Neoproterozoic time

Precambrian Research, 2000
In 1989, the International Commission on Stratigraphy established a Working Group on the Terminal Proterozoic Period. Nine years of intensive, multidisciplinary research by scientists from some two dozen countries have markedly improved the framework for the correlation and calibration of latest Proterozoic events.

Early Neoproterozoic magmatic imprints in the Altun-Qilian-Kunlun region of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: Response to the assembly and breakup of Rodinia supercontinent

, 2019
The Altun-Qilian-Kunlun Mountain (AQK), located on the northeastern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, experienced multiple Neoproterozoic magmatic and metamorphic events which are correlated to the Rodinia supercontinent history.
