Abstract The late Paleozoic Ice Age (LPIA) was one of Earth's most important Phanerozoic
climatic events lasting for over 100 Mys. Despite its importance, its history is controversial …

For more than 150 years, geologic characteristics claimed to be evidence for pre-
Pleistocene glaciations have been debated. Advancements in recent decades, in …

Icehouses are the less common climate state on Earth, and thus it is notable that the longest-
lived (c. 370 to 260 Ma) and possibly most extensive and intense of icehouse periods …

The sedimentary successions and four fossil groups, including rugose corals, brachiopods,
fusulinaceans and conodonts, from the Carboniferous and Lower Permian of South China …

Despite a lack of detailed sedimentologic analyses, diamictites in the Middle Permian Atkan
Formation were previously interpreted as glaciomarine and glacially-influenced marine …

Rugose corals are one of the major fossil groups in shallow-water environments. They
played an important role in dividing and correlating Carboniferous strata during the last …

Abstract Late Sakmarian to early Artinskian (Early Permian) carbonate deposition was
widespread in the marine intracratonic rift basins that extended into the interior of Eastern …

Carboniferous glaciogenic strata (Itararé Gp.) in the southernmost Paraná Basin, Brazil
exhibit soft-sediment deformation features previously interpreted as glaciotectonism. These …

Abstract The Baoshan Block was part of the eastern Cimmerian continent along the
northeastern margin of Gondwana during the late Paleozoic, and preserves continuous …

Late Paleozoic glacial deposits are widespread in Gondwana. In Antarctica the best
outcrops occur in the Central Transantarctic Mountains, Ellsworth Mountains, Pensacola …
