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.

Cytoplasmic Lipid Membrane Biogenesis in Prokaryotes: From Soluble Lipid Building Blocks to a Dynamic and Functional Boundary Layer [PDF]
ChembiochemLipid membranes are fundamental to all prokaryotic life. Besides acting as barrier, by orienting as hydrophobic bilayer, lipids are involved in a wide variety of other cellular processes. As a consequence, prokaryotic membranes are dynamic entities that switch their lipid composition as required; a process that requires tight interplay with the lipid ...

Temperate Oligocene surface ocean conditions offshore of Cape Adare, Ross Sea, Antarctica [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2021 Antarctic continental ice masses fluctuated considerably during the Oligocene “coolhouse”, at elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations of ∼600–800 ppm. To assess the role of the ocean in the Oligocene ice sheet variability, reconstruction of past ocean ...

Membrane homeoviscous adaptation in the piezo-hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus barophilus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 The archaeon Thermococcus barophilus, one of the most extreme members of hyperthermophilic piezophiles known thus far, is able to grow at temperatures up to 103°C and pressures up to 80MPa. We analyzed the membrane lipids of T. barophilus by HPLC-MS as a
