Pliocene-aged carbonaceous rocks of varying thicknesses, alternating with siliciclastic and carbonate rock units, are located on the northern border of the Çameli-Acıpayam basin (in southwestern Turkey), which is filled with thick Neogene sediments ...

Chemical composition of sediments is often used to evaluate paleoclimate condition, provenance, tectonic setting, depositional condition, and paleoproductivity. However, the validity of these proxies has long been questioned.

A quantification of the effect of diagenesis on the paleoredox record in mid-Proterozoic sedimentary rocks [PDF]
Iron speciation in ancient sedimentary rocks is widely used to reconstruct oceanic redox conditions over geological time, specifically to assess the extent of oxic, euxinic (anoxic containing sulfide), and ferruginous (anoxic containing iron) conditions.

Redox Conditions of the Late Ediacaran Ocean on the Southern Margin of the North China Craton
Previous studies have revealed dynamic and complex redox conditions of the late Ediacaran ocean. Integrated analyses of Ediacaran successions on different continents can help to better understand global ocean redox conditions. In this study, we used iron

Continental interiors were flooded by epeiric seas during many intervals of the geologic past. Few modern analogs exist for these environments, however, and basic variables such as redox, salinity, and restriction are difficult to reconstruct in deep ...

The Paleoredox Setting of Burgess Shale-type Deposits
Burgess Shale-type (BST) biotas occur globally in Lower and Middle Cambrian shales, and were preserved under specific and exceptional circumstances. Among the circumstances surrounding fossilization, benthic redox conditions have been the subject of ...

Abstract S, Tl, and W isotope records document pronounced early Eocene shifts in marine redox, yet the absence of a Mo isotope record obscures its progression. Here, we present ∼80 Myr Mo–Os–Be–Nd isotope profiles from a Northwest Pacific hydrogenetic Fe–Mn crust, revealing a systematic δ98Mo decline from −0.24‰ (early Eocene) to −0.83‰ (early ...
