Triassic climates—state of the art and perspectives
The climate of the Triassic period was characterized by a non-zonal pattern, dictated by a
strong global monsoon system with effects that are most evident in the Tethys realm. This …

High-precision U-Pb zircon age from the Triassic of Italy: Implications for the Triassic time scale and the Carnian origin of calcareous nannoplankton and dinosaurs
The Triassic time scale is poorly constrained due to a paucity of high-precision radiometric
ages. We present a 206Pb/238U age of 230.91±0.33 Ma (error includes all known sources) …

Multiple negative carbon-isotope excursions during the Carnian Pluvial Episode (Late Triassic)
Abstract The Carnian Pluvial Episode was a phase of global climatic change and biotic
turnover that occurred during the early Late Triassic. In marine sedimentary basins, the …
