Evidence from the magnetic field fossilized in sedimentary rocks suggests that, more than
600 million years ago, ice occupied tropical latitudes. A popular explanation for these …

The Sturtian 'snowball'glaciation (730 Ma) is contemporary with the dislocation of the
Rodinia supercontinent. This dislocation is heralded and accompanied by intense magmatic …

The problem of deglaciating a globally ice‐covered (“hard snowball”) Earth is examined
using a series of general circulation model simulations. The aim is to determine the amount …

Sedimentological observations and palaeomagnetic data for Cryogenian glacial deposits
present the climatic paradox of grounded glaciers and in situ cold climate near sea-level …

The question of climate at high obliquity is raised in the context of both exoplanet studies (eg
habitability) and paleoclimates studies (evidence for low-latitude glaciation during the …

Paleoenvironmental reconstructions and climatic modelling allow us to investigate the
influence of water and sediment supply on the preservation of fluvial systems within a given …

The Ura uplift section in southern Middle Siberia is one of the key sections for testing of
climatic changes and evolutionary events of the Ediacaran, as well as the development of …

The snowball Earth theory, initially proposed by JL Kirschvink to explain the Neoproterozoic
glacial episodes, suggests that the Earth was globally ice covered at 720 Ma (Sturtian …

Abstract The late Ediacaran Shuram–Wonoka excursion, with δ 13 C carb values as low as–
12‰(PDB) in marine-shelf deposits and spanning up to 10 Myr, is the deepest and most …

Abstract The Cryogenian period (720–635 million years ago) in the Neoproterozoic era
featured two phases of global or near-global ice cover termed “snowball Earth”. Climate …
