Abstract The Ediacaran-Cambrian transition, which incorporates the radiation of animals,
lacks a robust global temporal and spatial framework, resulting in major uncertainty in the …

The early to mid-Paleoproterozoic Lomagundi-Jatuli Excursion (LJE) is ostensibly the
largest magnitude (approximately+ 5 to+ 30‰), longest duration (ca. 130–250 million years) …

Abstract The Ediacaran Shuram carbon isotope excursion (CIE) follows the regional
Gaskiers glaciation and occurs before the appearance of macroscopic animal fossils …

Whether the fossil record should be read at face value or whether it presents a distorted view
of the history of life is an argument seemingly as old as many fossils themselves. In the late …

The diversification of animals during the Cambrian Period is one of the most significant
evolutionary events in Earth's history. However, the sequence of events leading to the origin …

The transition from the terminal Ediacaran to early Cambrian (ca. 550–530 Ma) witnessed
both the decline of Ediacaran-type soft-bodied and skeletal biota and the rapid …

To accurately reconstruct palaeoenvironmental change through time it is important to
determine which rock samples were deposited contemporaneously at different sites or …

An appealing strategy for reconstructing the timing and tempo of paleoenvironmental
change from sedimentary strata is to linearly interpolate between marker beds of known age …

Stratigraphic correlation of geophysical well logs is one of the most important—and most
time‐consuming—tasks that applied geoscientists perform on a daily basis. Using the …

We investigate the amplitude and frequency of directional geomagnetic change since 15 ka
in the Northern North Atlantic (∼ 67° N) using five “ultra‐high” resolution continental shelf …
