The role of LIPs in Phanerozoic mass extinctions: An Hg perspective
Abstract All of the Big Five mass extinctions (BFMEs) of the Phanerozoic are postulated to
have been associated with eruptions of large igneous provinces (LIPs), although the role of …

Biotic turnover and carbon cycle dynamics in the early Danian event (Dan-C2): New insights from Blake Nose, North Atlantic
Abstract Short-lived (10 4–10 5 years) carbon isotope excursions (CIEs), many of which are
associated with some degree of ocean warming, are a feature of the warm climates of the …
