The supercontinent Pangea completes its assembly and moves north during the Permian.
The 47-million-year-long period begins with a great ice age and ends with the Earth's …

The breakup of the former Pangea supercontinent culminated in the modern drifting
continents. Increased rifting caused the establishment of the Atlantic Ocean in the middle …

The Permian was marked by transition from the glacioera to the thermoera, the last one in
the geo-logical history. This global climatic reorganization followed the significant …

Abstract The Late Paleozoic (Early Devonian to Middle Permian) was an interval of profound
changes in Earth-surface systems, reflected in dynamic interplay among the biosphere …

Carefully examines the events recorded at the major Permo-Triassic boundary sections and
documents the patterns of extinction and survival among the major groups of marine and …

Origination and growing aridity of Pangea and transition from glacial to ice-free climate led
in the Permian–Early Triassic to substantial reorganization in all biosphere subsystems …

Abstract The Permian Period represents both a transition and a beginning in global
paleoclimate. Continental glaciation, which peaked in the Late Carboniferous, declined and …

High-resolution oxygen isotope records document the timing and magnitude of global
warming across the Permian-Triassic (P-Tr) boundary. Oxygen isotope ratios measured on …

During its life span from mid-Carboniferous (320 Ma) merger to mid-Jurassic (160 Ma) initial
breakup, Pangea comprised two contrasting sedimentary provinces:(1) an emergent …

The greatest loss of biodiversity in the history of animal life occurred at the end of the
Permian Period (∼ 252 million years ago). This biotic catastrophe coincided with an interval …
