Abstract Abiotic, Bioinduced and Biocontrolled carbonates are process-based sediment
categories. They successively reflect increasing levels of biotic control over carbonate …

The landscapes and seascapes of Earth's surface provide the theatre for life, but to what
extent did the actors build the stage? The role of life in the long-term sha** of the …

The Triassic is bound by two mass extinctions that coincide with vast outpourings of volcanic
flood basalts. The Mesozoic begins with a gradual recovery of plant and animal life after the …

As one of the most important energy sources in the world today, shale gas has attracted
extensive research. Numerous scholars agreed that the organic matter (OM) pores in shale …

Understanding the pattern of spatial permeability distribution in carbonate reservoirs
strongly depends on its relationships to geological factors. Despite this importance, the …

Widespread development of microbialites harbors a series of clues about microbial activity,
environmental condition, and aquatic chemistry. The Ediacaran-Cambrian transition draws …

The propagation of acoustic waves in rocks is directly influenced by the rocks' elastic
properties. To evaluate petrophysical properties from acoustic data, it is essential to …

Abstract Microbe-metazoan transitions (MMTs), representing a switch from microbe-
mediated to metazoan-mediated carbonate production, have been linked to major changes …

Redox variations across the Permian‐Triassic boundary (PTB) have long been debated,
especially during the proliferation of PTB microbialites. Here, we report redox fluctuations …

A major bio-crisis in the Guadalupian− Lo**ian transition (Capitanian− Wuchia**ian,
middle− late Permian), possibly driven by the volatile eruption of the Emeishan large …
