Prolonged Permian Triassic ecological crisis recorded by molluscan dominance in Late Permian offshore assemblages.
The end-Permian mass extinction was the largest biotic crisis in the history of animal life, eliminating as many as 95% of all species and dramatically altering the ecological structure of marine communities. Although the causes of this pronounced ecosystem shift have been widely debated, the broad consensus based on inferences from global taxonomic diversity patterns suggests that the shift fr...
متن کاملSequencing events across the Permian–Triassic boundary, Guryul Ravine (Kashmir, India)
The Permian–Triassic boundary (PTB) section at Guryul Ravine (Kashmir, India) comprises a N100-m-thick, apparently conformable succession of mixed siliciclastic–carbonate sediments deposited in a deep-shelf or ramp setting. This section, although long important in debates concerning placement of the PTB, has not previously been the focus of an integrated chemostratigraphic study. In the present...
متن کاملSeverest crisis overlooked—Worst disruption of terrestrial environments postdates the Permian–Triassic mass extinction
Generally Early Triassic floras are believed to be depauperate, suffering from protracted recovery following the Permian-Triassic extinction event. Here we present palynological data of an expanded East Greenland section documenting recovered floras in the basal Triassic (Griesbachian) and a subsequent fundamental floral turnover, postdating the Permian-Triassic boundary extinction by about 500...
متن کاملUnderstanding mechanisms for the end-Permian mass extinction and the protracted Early Triassic aftermath and recovery
Modern study of the end-Permian mass extinction in the marine realm has involved intensive documentation of the fossil content, sedimentology, and chemostratigraphy of individual stratigraphic sections where the mass extinction interval is well preserved. These studies, coupled with innovative modeling of environmental conditions, have produced specific hypotheses for the mechanisms that caused...
متن کاملDelayed recovery of non-marine tetrapods after the end-Permian mass extinction tracks global carbon cycle
During the end-Permian mass extinction, marine ecosystems suffered a major drop in diversity, which was maintained throughout the Early Triassic until delayed recovery during the Middle Triassic. This depressed diversity in the Early Triassic correlates with multiple major perturbations to the global carbon cycle, interpreted as either intrinsic ecosystem or external palaeoenvironmental effects...
