Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
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.

Ordovician scientometrics [PDF]
Scientometrics is a tool for studying the development of science to observe and analyse patterns that emerge from it. Our aim is to elucidate how the Ordovician has been studied through the years, through the perspective of the published papers, the main

Ordovician Bryozoa of Estonia [PDF]
sessile colonial, filter-feeding animals, many of which possess hard carbonate skeletons of different morphology. The bryozoan faunas of the Ordovician of Estonia were studied early by famous naturalists such as Karl Eduard von Eichwald and WÅadisÅaw ...

The Irish Ordovician brachiopod fauna: A taxonomic renaissance [PDF]
Despite its small areal extent, the island of Ireland exposes eight Caledonian tectonic terranes; six of them contain Ordovician brachiopod assemblages. These terranes record the early phases and destruction of the Iapetus Ocean through the occurrence of

The earliest cornulitid on the internal surface of the illaenid pygidium from the Middle Ordovician of Estonia [PDF]
The earliest cornulitid Cornulites sp. appears in the Darriwilian (Lasnamägi Regional Stage) of Estonia. Internal annulation is present in all Middle Ordovician cornulitids and could be a plesiomorphic character for the group.

Fine characterization of Ordovician inner fault-controlled bodies in area A of Tarim Basin
It is a major difficulty to accurately characterize the inner fault-controlled bodies in the exploration and development of fault-controlled oil and gas reservoirs because the fault-controlled bodies are diverse in reservoir space, complicated in ...
