The Great Oxidation Event preceded a Paleoproterozoic “snowball Earth” [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
The inability to resolve the exact temporal relationship between two pivotal events in Earth history, the Paleoproterozoic Great Oxidation Event (GOE) and the first “snowball Earth” global glaciation, has precluded assessing causality between changing atmospheric composition and ancient climate change.

A tectonic model for the juxtaposition of granulite- and amphibolite-facies rocks in the Eburnean orogenic belt (Sassandra-Cavally domain, Côte d’Ivoire)

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2023
The Sassandra-Cavally (SASCA) domain (SW Côte d’Ivoire) marks the transition between the Archean Kenema-Man craton and the Paleoproterozoic (Rhyacian) Baoule-Mossi domain.

THE BELOMORIAN ECLOGITE PROVINCE (EASTERN FENNOSCANDIAN SHIELD, RUSSIA): MESO-NEOARCHEAN OR LATE PALEOPROTEROZOIC?

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
A critical discussion of competing models of the geodynamic nature (oceanic or continental subduction) and age (Meso-Neoarchean or Late Paleoproterozoic) of the eclogite facies metamorphism in the Belomorian eclogite province (BEP) is based on the ...

FAULT SYSTEMS IN THE UPPER CRUST OF THE FENNOSCANDIAN SHIELD, THE EAST EUROPEAN PLATFORM

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
Directions of 683 faults located in the southeastern part of the Fennoscandian (Baltic) shield were statistically analyzed, and three orthogonal associations of fault systems were identified in the study area.

Paleoproterozoic sterol biosynthesis and the rise of oxygen [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2017
Natural products preserved in the geological record can function as 'molecular fossils', providing insight into organisms and physiologies that existed in the deep past. One important group of molecular fossils is the steroidal hydrocarbons (steranes), which are the diagenetic remains of sterol lipids.

Geological and isotopic characteristics of granites from the Western Pernambuco-Alagoas Domain: implications for the crustal evolution of the Neoproterozoic Borborema Province

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology
The Western Pernambuco-Alagoas Domain is a complex tectonic domain of the Southern part of the Neoproterozoic Borborema Province. It borders the Northern margin of São Francisco Craton. U-Pb and Sm-Nd data discussed in this work show that, in the Western
