Chondrites isp. Indicating Late Paleozoic Atmospheric Anoxia in Eastern Peninsular India
Rhythmic sandstone-mudstone-coal succession of the Barakar Formation (early Permian) manifests a transition from lower braided-fluvial to upper tide-wave influenced, estuarine setting. Monospecific assemblage of marine trace fossil Chondrites isp. in contemporaneous claystone beds in the upper Barakar succession from two Gondwana basins (namely, the Raniganj Basin and the Talchir Basin) in east...
متن کاملLate paleozoic fusulinoidean gigantism driven by atmospheric hyperoxia.
Atmospheric hyperoxia, with pO(2) in excess of 30%, has long been hypothesized to account for late Paleozoic (360-250 million years ago) gigantism in numerous higher taxa. However, this hypothesis has not been evaluated statistically because comprehensive size data have not been compiled previously at sufficient temporal resolution to permit quantitative analysis. In this study, we test the hy...
متن کاملShifts in late Paleozoic atmospheric circulation over western equatorial Pangea: Insights from pedogenic mineral d18O compositions
The d18O values of pedogenic calcites, phyllosilicates, and iron (oxyhydr)oxides from fossil soils throughout the southwestern United States show systematic paleolatitudinal and temporal trends that indicate a significant change in soil moisture conditions and atmospheric circulation patterns over southwestern Euramerica throughout latest Pennsylvanian and Early Permian time. A progressive depl...

متن کاملA Late Paleozoic climate window of opportunity.
The highest rates of global organic carbon burial (up to 6.5 × 10 mol/Myr) over the past half billion years occurred during the Carboniferous–Permian (330–260 Myr), in large part because of the accumulation and burial of peat in broad tropical lowland basins (1). Atypical rates of organic carbon sequestration led to low atmospheric pCO2 and anomalously high pO2 (Fig. 1), which in turn triggered...
