We report new sulfur isotope compositions (δ 34 S) in carbonate associated sulfate (CAS) and pyrite from the lower Nama Group, Namibia (∼ 550 to< 547 Ma), and use these data to …
The genesis (primary versus secondary) of Mn carbonate-rich sediments, which consist of sub-economic rocks and ore deposits, remains hotly debated. Here, we investigated the …

Oxygen availability is crucial for the evolution of eukaryotes in geological history, yet detailed Mesoproterozoic oceanic-atmospheric redox conditions remain enigmatic. In …
Climate change is expanding marine oxygen minimum zones (OMZs), while anthropogenic nutrient input depletes oxygen concentrations locally. The effects of deoxygenation on …
Carbonate carbon isotope (δ 13 C carb) chemostratigraphy is a valuable tool in Precambrian stratigraphic correlation. The effectiveness of this tool rests on the assumption …

The terminal Ediacaran interval from~ 550 Ma to 541 Ma witnessed the first appearance of skeletal metazoans and complex ecosystems in Earth history. This biotic innovation event is …
Abstract The Ediacaran Period includes critical evolutionary trends of early complex life as well as climatic variations associated with ocean oxygenation, glaciations, and carbon …
Calcium isotope ratios in ancient carbonate rocks can provide insight into the global marine calcium cycle as well as local conditions during carbonate mineral precipitation and …
Abstract The Ediacaran–Cambrian transition witnessed some of the most important biological, tectonic, climatic and geochemical changes in Earth's history. Of utmost …
