The end‐T riassic mass extinction (c. 201.6 Ma) was one of the five largest mass‐extinction events in the history of animal life. It was also associated with a dramatic, long‐lasting …

The temporal link between mass extinctions and large igneous provinces is well known. Here, we examine this link by focusing on the potential climatic effects of large igneous …
The Earth's cryosphere represents a huge climate-sensitive carbon reservoir capable of releasing carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4) from permafrost soils or gas reservoirs …
The Early Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T-OAE), about 183myr ago, was a global event of environmental and carbon cycle perturbations, which deeply affected both marine biota and …
Large volumes of greenhouse gases such as CH4 and CO2 form by contact metamorphism of organic-rich sediments in aureoles around sill intrusions in sedimentary basins …
Throughout Earth's history, variations in atmospheric CO2 concentration modulated climate. Understanding changes in atmospheric carbon cycle is therefore pivotal in predicting …
A perturbation in the carbon-isotope record at the time of the Pliensbachian–Toarcian boundary (~ 184 Ma) in the Early Jurassic is reported, based on new data from Yorkshire …
The Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T-OAE)(ca. 182Myr, Early Jurassic) represents one of the best-recognized examples of greenhouse warming, decreased seawater oxygenation …
Continental flood basalt provinces are the subaerial expression of large igneous province volcanism. The emplacement of a continental flood basalt is an exceptional volcanic event in …
