Mercury is gaining prominence as a proxy for large igneous province (LIP) volcanism in the sedimentary record. Despite temporal overlap between some mass extinctions and LIPs, the …
The role of ocean anoxia as a cause of the end-Triassic marine mass extinction is widely debated. Here, we present carbonate-associated sulfate δ34S data from sections spanning …

The early Toarcian biotic crisis (∼ 183 Ma), characterized in marine environments by abrupt temperature fluctuations, included a hyperthermal event (Jenkyns Event) with sea-level …
The latest Triassic was an interval of prolonged biotic extinction culminating in the end- Triassic Extinction (ETE). The ETE is now associated with a perturbation of the global carbon …

The increasing dinosaur record from Italy questioned classic palaeogeographic scenarios for the Central Mediterranean area and suggest the proximity of landmass areas and a …
The end-Triassic mass extinction (ETME) was associated with intensified deep-water anoxia in epicontinental seas and mid-depth waters, yet the absolute oxygenation state in the …
The Viggiano Mt. platform carbonates form a layered succession cross-cut by a dense array of pressure solution seams, and five sets of fractures and veins, which together form a sub …
A new δ 13 C carb curve was obtained from an expanded peritidal succession in western Sicily and was used to investigate the relationships between isotopic signatures and …
