The late Paleozoic icehouse was the longest-lived ice age of the Phanerozoic, and its
demise constitutes the only recorded turnover to a greenhouse state. This review …

The conventional view of the late Paleozoic ice age is that it was a single long, protracted
event some tens of millions of years in duration, with some internal waxing and waning of …

The recurrence of the same types of sequence stratigraphic surface through geologic time
defines cycles of change in accommodation or sediment supply, which correspond to …

Procedures introduced here make it possible, first, to show that background (piecemeal)
extinction is recorded throughout geologic stages and substages (not all extinction has …

Icehouses are the less common climate state on Earth, and thus it is notable that the longest-
lived (c. 370 to 260 Ma) and possibly most extensive and intense of icehouse periods …

The formation of upper Paleozoic (Viséan to Sakmarian-Artinskian) Euramerican
cyclothems, which resulted from base-level fluctuations of up to 100 m, commonly are …

A comprehensive literature review shows that the magnitude of eustatic fluctuations varied
throughout the Carboniferous and Permian and that at least eight distinct phases can be …

This paper provides a review of the Late Mississippian to Permian paleoclimatic history for
southern South America based on lithologic indicators, biostratigraphic information, and …

The duration and geographic extent of Carboniferous glacial events in southern Gondwana
remain poorly constrained despite recent evidence for a more dynamic glacial history than …

Abstract The Late Paleozoic (Early Devonian to Middle Permian) was an interval of profound
changes in Earth-surface systems, reflected in dynamic interplay among the biosphere …
