I. Glaciagenic and Related Strata of the Neoproterozoic Kingston Peak Formation in the Panamint Range, Death Valley Region, California. II. The Basal Ediacaran Noonday Formation, Eastern California, and Implications for Laurentian Equivalents. III. Rifting of Southwest Laurentia During the Sturtian-Marinoan Interglacial: The Argenta Orogeny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
I. Glacigenic deposits in the Death Valley region occur within the Neoproterozoic Kingston Peak Formation. In the Panamint Range, immediately west of Death Valley, these strata are ≥1000 m thick and are continuously exposed for nearly 100 km along the ...

Chemostratigraphy of Neoproterozoic carbonates: implications for 'blind dating' [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

The geology of the Capiru Group, Curitiba Terrane, Southern Ribeira Belt (Brazil)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2021
The Capiru Group is a Neoproterozoic metasedimentary unit that crops out in the Curitiba terrane, Southern Ribeira Belt, Brazil. A detailed geological mapping of this unit was performed during 2016 to 2020. Original interpretations and the new geological

A Neoproterozoic Transition in the Marine Nitrogen Cycle [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2014
The Neoproterozoic (1000-542 million years ago, Mya) was characterized by profound global environmental and evolutionary changes, not least of which included a major rise in atmospheric oxygen concentrations [1, 2], extreme climatic fluctuations and global-scale glaciation [3], and the emergence of metazoan life in the oceans [4, 5].

Structural peculiarities and geodynamic evolution of Taimyr Peninsula in the Neoproterozoic

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2018
Structural relationships between the Neoproterozoic rock complexes of a continental massif, island arc with rear reef and back-arc basin geodynamic affinities are described and considered in this work based on field observations within the northeastern ...

Neoproterozoic copper cycling, and the rise of metazoans [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractThe rise of animal life is temporally related to the increased availability of oxygen in the hydrosphere and atmosphere during the Neoproterozoic. However, the earliest metazoans probably needed relatively low oxygen concentrations, suggesting additional environmental and/or biochemical developments were involved.

Neoproterozoic glacial origin of the Great Unconformity [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018
The Great Unconformity, a profound gap in Earths stratigraphic record often evident below the base of the Cambrian system, has remained among the most enigmatic field observations in Earth science for over a century. While long associated directly or indirectly with the occurrence of the earliest complex animal fossils, a conclusive explanation for the
