Speleothem microstructure/speleothem ontogeny: a review of Western contributions
International Journal of Speleology, 2012 Mineral ontogeny is the study of the growth and development of mineral deposits in general and, in the present context, speleothems in particular. Previous researchers, mainly in Russia, have developed a nomenclatural hierarchy based on the forms and ...

Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 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.

Proxy Response Heterogeneity to the Indian Monsoon During Last Millennium in the Himalayan Region
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 We reviewed the available climate records for the past 2 millennia based on the analyzed sediment and speleothem archives from different regions of South Asia. Speleothem records from the core-monsoon regions of the Indian sub-continent have revealed the

Spatio-temporal dynamics of speleothem growth and glaciation in the British Isles [PDF]
Climate of the PastReconstructing the spatio-temporal dynamics of glaciations and permafrost largely relies on surface deposits and is therefore a challenge for every glacial period older than the last due to erosion.

Говийн aгуйн спелеотемын судалгааны үр дүн ба эртний уур амьсгал
Proceedings of the Mongolian Academy of Sciences, 2017 No Mongolian AbstractSpeleothems have been found out in three caves: the Shar-khanan , Gurvan-Zeerd and Lovon-Chombo. Were dated by U-Th method. No speleothem deposition younger than 550 ky was found in the Gobi .

Petrographic and geochemical constraints on the formation of gravity‐defying speleothems
The Depositional Record, 2023 Cave carbonates, seemingly growing in defiance of gravity, have attracted the community's interest for more than a century. This paper focusses on ‘helictites’, contorted vermiform speleothems with central capillaries.
