Geologists and palaeontologists have expressed mixed views about the effects of the end-
Permian mass extinction on continental habitats and on terrestrial life. Current work …

High-resolution oxygen isotope records document the timing and magnitude of global
warming across the Permian-Triassic (P-Tr) boundary. Oxygen isotope ratios measured on …

Abstract The Permian/Triassic boundary approximately 251.9 million years ago marked the
most severe environmental crisis identified in the geological record, which dictated the …

The latest Permian mass extinction (LPE), just prior to the Permian–Triassic boundary at~
252Ma, resulted in the disappearance of~ 90% of skeletonized marine taxa and the …

Recovery from the end-Permian mass extinction is frequently described as delayed,,, with
complex ecological communities typically not found in the fossil record until the Middle …

Vertical gradients in the δ13C of seawater dissolved inorganic carbon (Δδ13CDIC) can be
estimated for paleomarine systems based on δ13Ccarb data from sections representing a …

Permian-Triassic boundary sections from Armenia were studied for carbon isotopes of
carbonates as well as oxygen isotopes of conodont apatite in order to constrain the global …

Dachang is a world-class gold deposit with gold reserves of 121 t and an average grade of
3.02 ppm. However, the genesis, and in particular the origin of the Au, S and associated …

Abstract The Late Permian mass extinction event about 252 million years ago was the most
severe biotic crisis of the past 500 million years and occurred during an episode of global …

Paleotemperature proxy data form the cornerstone of paleoclimate research and are integral
to understanding the evolution of the Earth system across the Phanerozoic Eon. Here, we …
