Phanerozoic concentrations of atmospheric oxygen reconstructed from sedimentary charcoal
IJ Glasspool, AC Scott - Nature Geoscience, 2010 - nature.com
Variations of the Earth's atmospheric oxygen concentration (p O2) are thought to be closely
tied to the evolution of life, with strong feedbacks between uni-and multicellular life and …

Recovery from the most profound mass extinction of all time
The end-Permian mass extinction, 251 million years (Myr) ago, was the most devastating
ecological event of all time, and it was exacerbated by two earlier events at the beginning …

Climate changes caused by degassing of sediments during the emplacement of large igneous provinces
Most mass extinctions during the last 500 my coincide with eruptions of large igneous
provinces (LIPs). The Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction was synchronous with the Deccan flood …

When and how did the terrestrial mid-Permian mass extinction occur? Evidence from the tetrapod record of the Karoo Basin, South Africa
A mid-Permian (Guadalupian epoch) extinction event at approximately 260 Ma has been
mooted for two decades. This is based primarily on invertebrate biostratigraphy of …
