Oxygenation, life, and the planetary system during Earth's middle history: An overview
The long history of life on Earth has unfolded as a cause-and-effect relationship with the
evolving amount of oxygen (O2) in the oceans and atmosphere. Oxygen deficiency …

The microbial carbon pump and climate change
The ocean has been a regulator of climate change throughout the history of Earth. One key
mechanism is the mediation of the carbon reservoir by refractory dissolved organic carbon …

Uncovering the Ediacaran phosphorus cycle
Phosphorus is a limiting nutrient that is thought to control oceanic oxygen levels to a large
extent,–. A possible increase in marine phosphorus concentrations during the Ediacaran …

Unique Neoproterozoic carbon isotope excursions sustained by coupled evaporite dissolution and pyrite burial
The Neoproterozoic era witnessed a succession of biological innovations that culminated in
diverse animal body plans and behaviours during the Ediacaran–Cambrian radiations …

The redox structure of Ediacaran and early Cambrian oceans and its controls
The rapid diversification of early animals during the Ediacaran (635–541 Ma) and early
Cambrian (ca. 541–509 Ma) has frequently been attributed to increasing oceanic …

Global marine redox changes drove the rise and fall of the Ediacara biota
The role of O2 in the evolution of early animals, as represented by some members of the
Ediacara biota, has been heavily debated because current geochemical evidence paints a …

Global marine redox evolution from the late Neoproterozoic to the early Paleozoic constrained by the integration of Mo and U isotope records
The emergence and diversification of early animals is commonly thought to have coincided
with atmosphere and ocean oxygenation across the terminal Neoproterozoic and early …

Claypool continued: Extending the isotopic record of sedimentary sulfate
Abstract The Proterozoic Eon spans Earth's middle age during which many important
transitions occurred. These transitions include the oxygenation of the atmosphere …

Decoupled oxygenation of the Ediacaran ocean and atmosphere during the rise of early animals
Abstract The Ediacaran Period (∼ 635 to 541 Ma) witnessed the early diversification and
radiation of metazoans, in the form of the Ediacaran Biota. This biological revolution …
