In the Jurassic period, the Early Toarcian oceanic anoxic event (about 183 million years ago) is associated with exceptionally high rates of organic-carbon burial, high …
The first book to review all the evidence concerning both the dinosaur extinctions and all the other major extinctions-of plant, animal, terrestrial, and marine life-in the history of life. All the …
Current chemostratigraphical studies of the Jurassic System primarily involve the use of one sedimentary component (marine organic carbon), one divalent transition metal substituted in …

A well-known second-order mass extinction took place during the Pliensbachian and Toarcian Stages of the Early Jurassic. First recognized as a minor Pliensbachian peak in the …
Secular records of the elemental and isotopic composition of belemnite calcite were studied in Pliensbachian and Toarcian sections from the Yorkshire coast, UK, and Southern …
We profile 87Sr/86Sr, δ13C, δ18O, Sr/Ca, Mg/Ca, and Na/Ca in belemnites through Pliensbachian and Toarcian strata on the Yorkshire coast, UK, which include the early …
The early Toarcian (eTo) and Cenomanian–Turonian (C–T) mass extinctions are comparable from a wide range of scales and perspectives. From a broad standpoint, their …

Stable isotopes of carbon (12C and 13C) and sulphur (32S and 34S) are fractionated during some of the transformations between reservoirs in the global carbon and sulphur cycles. The …
