Abstract: Abstract In this paper, we use molecular paleothermometry, based on the TEX86 proxy derived from fossilized archaeal lipids, to reconstruct absolute sea surface temperatures (SSTs) for the northwest Tethys Shelf during the late Pliensbachian to… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Early Toarcian (Early Jurassic; ~183 Ma) climate and carbon cycle perturbations were accompanied by widespread accumulation of bituminous sediments, formed during the Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T-OAE). On the northwestern Tethyan shelf, organic carbon accumulation… read more here.
