Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 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.

Paleocene Larger Foraminifera from the Pyrenean Basin with a recalibration of the Paleocene Shallow Benthic Zones

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2020
A taxonomic study of the larger foraminifera found in Paleocene rocks from the Pyrenean basin has led to the description of sixty taxa including two new species: Alveolina korresensis and Valvulineria bacetai.

Constraints on the Numerical Age of the Paleocene-Eocene Boundary [PDF]

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2011
Here we present combined radio-isotopic dating (U-Pb zircon) and cyclostratigraphic analysis of the carbon isotope excursion at the Paleocene/Eocene (P/E) boundary in Spitsbergen, to determine the numerical age of the boundary.

Control of Paleocene volcanic edifice on favorable reservoirs: a case study of the southwestern Huizhou Sag, Pearl River Mouth Basin

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi, 2022
Thickly developed Paleocene volcanic rocks in the southwestern Huizhou Sag of the Pearl River Mouth Basin are continuously filled with lacustrine sedimentary rocks of the overlying Eocene Wenchang Formation in the sag, forming the main rock formations in

Could changing ocean circulation have destabilized methane hydrate at the Paleocene/Eocene boundary? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
During the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM, ~55 Ma), marine and terrestrial carbon isotope values exhibit a negative shift of at least 2.5‰, indicative of massive destabilization of marine methane hydrates, releasing ~1100 gigatonnes of methane ...

Climate model and proxy data constraints on ocean warming across the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Constraining the greenhouse gas forcing, climatic warming and estimates of climate sensitivity across ancient large transient warming events is a major challenge to the palaeoclimate research community.

Scaled biotic disruption during early Eocene global warming events [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Late Paleocene and early Eocene hyperthermals are transient warming events associated with massive perturbations of the global carbon cycle, and are considered partial analogues for current anthropogenic climate change.

Spatial Patterns of Chemical Weathering at the Basal Tertiary Nonconformity in California from Multispectral and Hyperspectral Optical Remote Sensing

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Visible through shortwave (VSWIR) spectral reflectance of the geologic units across the basal Tertiary nonconformity (BTN) is characterized at three spatially disparate locations in California. At two of these sites, location-specific spectral endmembers
