80-Million-Year Atmospheric CO2 Record from the Late Palaeozoic Ice Age Open
Atmospheric CO2 is thought to play a fundamental role in Earth’s climate regulation. Yet, for much of Earth’s deep geological past, atmospheric CO2 has been poorly constrained, hindering our understanding of transitions between…

Discovery of an anomalous non-evaporating sub-nanometre water layer in open environment Open
Water exhibits complex behaviors as a result of hydrogen bonding, and low-dimensional confined water plays a key role in material science, geology, and biology science. Conventional techniques like STM, TEM, and AFM enable atomic-scale obs…

End-Permian marine ecosystem collapse was a direct consequence of deforestation: Evidence from the Kockatea Shale of the Perth Basin, Western Australia Open
The end-Permian mass extinction event resulted in devastated continental biomes, desolated land, and toxic waters. Anoxia led to widespread extinctions in marine ecosystems, affecting most oceanic clades. In this paper, the palynofacies of…

Variation of shell ornamentation with latitude and water depth—A case study using living brachiopods Open
As a potential anti‐predatory defensive structure, the shell ornamentation of marine calcifiers is usually used to understand the macro coevolution of the interactions between predators and preys. Marine calcifiers' shell ornamentation com…

Mass extinction or extirpation: Permian biotic turnovers in the northwestern margin of Pangea Open
The Capitanian (Middle Permian) mass extinction event, prior to and separate from the end-Permian mass extinction, has been suggested as a severe biotic crisis comparable to the big five mass extinctions of the Phanerozoic. However, there …
