The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
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.

A new middle Cambrian trilobite with a specialized cephalon from Shandong Province, North China [PDF]
Trilobites achieved their maximum generic diversity in the Cambrian, but the peak of morphological disparity of their cranidia occurred in the Middle to Late Ordovician. Early to middle Cambrian trilobites with a specialized cephalon are rare, especially

Geochemical characteristics and genesis of Paleozoic natural gas in the Ordos Basin
The geochemical characteristics and genesis of Paleozoic natural gas in the Ordos Basin are complex, with some disputes on the gas source of Lower Paleozoic. In order to better grasp the overall geochemical characteristics and variation laws of Paleozoic

ASYNCHRONOUS DEVELOPMENT OF REEFS AND REEF-BUILDING BIOTA. PALEOZOIC
This work analyses the development of reefs, which represent thick morphologically expressed carbonate massifs created by the activity of frame-forming organisms. Major stages in the development of reefs include the periods of Early Cambrian, Ordovician,

Accretionary Tectonics of the North American Cordillera [PDF]
Continental geology stands on the threshold of a change that is likely to be as fundamental as plate-tectonic theory was for marine geology. Ongoing seismic-reflection investigations into the deep crustal structure of North America are verifying that ...

Evolution of prototype basin and change of tectonic-sedimentary pattern in Paleozoic, Ordos Basin
The Ordos Basin is a craton basin developed based on the Precambrian rift system during Permian. It has experienced two stages of evolution including the Early Paleozoic craton marginal depression and Late Paleozoic intra-craton depression.
