New zircon U-Pb geochronology from a peridotite suite near Ranau and the Telupid ophiolite in Sabah, eastern Malaysia, contradict previous studies, wh......
In the Rodinia supercontinent, Laurentia is placed at the center because it was flanked by late Neoproterozoic rifted margins; however, the conjugate ......
Strongly C-13-depleted authigenic carbonates (e.g., delta C-13(VPDB) <-30 parts per thousand; VPDB-Vienna Peedee belemnite) in nature are generally......
Major disruptions in the North Atlantic circulation during the last deglaciation triggered a series of climate feedbacks that influenced the course of......
Molecular phylogenetic data suggest that photosynthetic eukaryotes first evolved in freshwater environments in the early Proterozoic and diversified i......
Teratological spores and pollen are widespread in sediments that record the PermianTriassic mass extinction. The malformations are thought to be the r......
The Namche Barwa syntaxis in the eastern Himalaya is rapidly evolving in terms of its tectonics and topography. Here we constrain the exhumation histo......
Ammonoids suffered a diversity bottleneck during the Permian-Triassic mass extinction (PTME) and experienced a rapid diversification in the Early Tria......
Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are commonly associated with mass extinctions. However, the precise relations between LIPs and their impacts on biodive......
Large impact structures with peak rings are common landforms across the solar system, and their formation has implications for both the interior struc......
As extinct animals that flourished during the Cambrian explosion, chancelloriids have a unique body plan lacking guts but with a flexible integument a......
Enhanced regional subduction-related volcanism in the South China craton concurrent with Siberian Traps large igneous province magmatism was a likely ......
A lack of precise age constraints for Neoproterozoic strata in the northwestern United States (Washington State), including the Buffalo Hump Formation......
Disentangling records of Rodinia fragmentation and true polar wander remains a challenge for understanding late Tonian plate tectonics. The ca. 760 Ma......
