Toarcian anoxic event in Europe: An organic geochemical study

open access: yesMarine and Petroleum Geology, 1989
Abstract A total of 48 sediment samples, comprising both black shales and associated organic-poor interbeds, were examined from Toarcian organic-rich sections throughout Europe. Despite being contemporaneous deposits of a single oceanic anoxic event (OAE), the molecular organic geochemical characteristics, particularly the steroidal hydrocarbons, of ...

Elevated atmospheric CO2 drove spatial variability in terrestrial organic carbon burial during the Toarcian hyperthermal

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Enhanced organic carbon burial associated with widespread black shale deposition functioned as a critical feedback mechanism for removing excess carbon from the atmosphere-ocean system during the Early Toarcian hyperthermal (~183 Ma).

Anatomy and Sequence Architecture of the early Post-Rift in the Neuquén Basin (Argentina): A Response to Physiography and Relative Sea-level Changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A detailed architectural and sequence stratigraphic analysis was carried out in the early-post-rift succession of central Neuque´n Basin (Middle Jurassic Cuyo Group), integrating outcrop and subsurface information from a 3,000 km2 area.

A New Plesiosauroid from the Toarcian (Lower Jurassic) of Alhadas, Portugal [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2012
A partial plesiosauroid skull from the Sao Giao Formation (Toarcian, Lower Jurassic) of Alhadas, Portugal is re-evaluated and described as a new taxon, Lusonectes sauvagei gen. et sp. nov. It has a single autapomorphy, a broad triangular parasphenoid cultriform process that is as long as the posterior interpterygoid vacuities, and also a unique ...

Evolution of the last koninckinids (Athyridida, Koninckinidae), a precursor signal of the early Toarcian mass extinction event in the Western Tethys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Koninckinids are a suitable group to shed light on the biotic crisis suffered by brachiopod fauna in the Early Jurassic. Koninckinid fauna recorded in the late Pliensbachian–early Toarcian from the easternmost Subbetic basin is analyzed and identified as

Barium Isotopes Indicate Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity of Marine Primary Productivity During the Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract The Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T‐OAE, ∼183 Ma) was characterized by globally enhanced organic‐carbon burial and a negative carbon‐isotope excursion (N‐CIE). However, the role of marine productivity at this time, and its spatiotemporal variability, is unclear.

New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
New Zealand Geological Timescale 2025 (NZGT 2025) is the first comprehensive update and revision of the New Zealand Geological Timescale in a decade. The criteria used to establish age ranges of New Zealand Stages within the NZGT have been reviewed, calibrated, and revised where required against the 2023/04 International Chronostratigraphic Chart and ...

Molecular paleothermometry of the early Toarcian climate perturbation

open access: yesGlobal and Planetary Change, 2020
Abstract In this paper, we use molecular paleothermometry, based on the TEX86 proxy derived from fossilized archaeal lipids, to reconstruct absolute sea surface temperatures (SSTs) for the northwest Tethys Shelf during the late Pliensbachian to early Toarcian (Early Jurassic, ~183 Ma) stages.

Initiation of the Ferrar Large Igneous Province Started in Southern North Victoria Land, Antarctica, With Shallow Emplacement of Sills Causing Magma‐Soft‐Rock Interaction and Phreatomagmatic Eruptions

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Early Jurassic volcanism was in the southern north Victoria Land portion of the Ferrar Large Igneous Province preceded by multiple phases of shallow‐level intrusions of Ferrar sills into the 300 m thick cover of sedimentary rocks of the Triassic‐Jurassic Victoria Group.
