The critical role of rare earth elements (REEs), particularly heavy REEs (HREEs), in high-
tech industries has created a surge in demand that is quickly outstrip** known global …

Ocean and coastal ecosystems support life on Earth and many aspects of human well-being.
Covering two-thirds of the planet, the ocean hosts vast biodiversity and modulates the global …

Biotic activities are involved in almost all sedimentation processes throughout the
evolutionary history of life on our planet. However, deep-time organism-induced …

The greenhouse world of the mid‐Cretaceous (~ 94 Ma) was punctuated by an episode of
abrupt climatic upheaval: Oceanic Anoxic Event 2. High‐resolution climate records reveal …

We investigated the onset and development of Cretaceous Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE2)

Enigmatic catastrophic events, involving mass extinction of life forms, have been recorded
several times in the Earth history. In many cases, the causes and mechanisms of these …

Abstract The latest Cenomanian Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE) 2 represents one of the most
extreme perturbations of the global carbon cycle. Planktonic foraminiferal events, variations …

The remarkable transition of early angiosperms from a small to a dominant group
characterized the terrestrial ecosystem of the Cretaceous. This transition was instigated and …

The significance of Cretaceous hothouse climate in terrestrial systems is currently unclear,
and its records in terrestrial strata are rarely reported. This study investigated the …
