Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 263-304., 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.

Environmental Context of Hominin Foot Evolution. [PDF]
Am J Biol AnthropolABSTRACT Objectives This study investigates the environmental contexts that influenced the evolution of hominin foot morphology, focusing on when, where, and under what conditions key synapomorphies evolved. We test whether shifts in ecological conditions are associated with changes in locomotor function.

Journal of Geophysical Research - Solid Earth, 2020 Magnetic enhancement of Chinese loess‐paleosol sequences has been used extensively as a proxy for East Asian summer monsoon variations. However, the pedogenic magnetic particles contributing to this magnetic enhancement are difficult to extract, so it is

Open Geosciences, 2023 Profile sampling, which causes missing or overlapping horizons, has been generally used while studying loess stratigraphy and paleoclimate. Conversely, drill sampling of thick loess can provide a relatively complete and actual record of the Quaternary ...

Main features of the paleosol underlying hydromorphic paleosol.
, 2021 The paleosol underlying hydromorphic-paleosol was exposed by the quarrying at the local-depression. The presence of the fossilized roots, stems, blocky peds, and pseudo-anticlines as well as its stratigraphic position (underlying light-gray hydromorphic ...

Geosciences, 2023 The Early Cretaceous Yellow Cat Member of the terrestrial Cedar Mountain Formation in Utah, USA. has been interpreted as a “time-rich” unit because of its dinosaur fossils, prominent paleosols, and the results of preliminary chemostratigraphic and ...

Geosciences, 2023 Paleoclimate studies of loess in China have focused mostly on the time series of a single borehole or profile. However, research on loess strata and regional paleoenvironmental patterns could facilitate a deeper understanding of loess as a ...
