Mercury evidence from southern Pangea terrestrial sections for end-Permian global volcanic effects

Jun Shen et al.

Summary: The Permian mass extinction was caused by volcanic activity in the Siberian Traps, and the land records from southern Pangea provide evidence of long-distance atmospheric transfer of volcanogenic mercury during this event. These findings demonstrate the far-reaching effects of the Siberian Traps and refine the stratigraphic placement of the extinction interval in the Karoo Basin.

Drainage and environmental evolution across the Permo-Triassic boundary in the south-east Germanic Basin (north-east Bavaria)

Domenico C. G. Ravida et al.

Summary: The study investigates the environmental response to external forcings on continental successions at the southeast margin of the Central European Basin System in Germany, integrating high-resolution core-logging and quantitative sedimentary petrography. Environmental changes are accentuated by variations in sediment composition, suggesting distinct drainage evolutions regulated by upstream climate and tectonic controls.

Low-temperature thermochronology as a control on vertical movements for semi-quantitative source-to-sink analysis: A case study for the Permian to Neogene of Morocco and surroundings

Remi Charton et al.

Summary: This study integrates over 30 published Low Temperature Thermochronology and time-Temperature modelling studies from Morocco and its surroundings to investigate the exhumation, erosion rates, and palaeoreconstructions of source-to-sink domains in the Atlantic realm. The results predict high exhumation rates in the Jurassic and Neogene, comparable to rift flank settings, and provide insight into the evolution of the Central Atlantic margin hinterlands.

Transition between Variscan and Alpine cycles in the Pyrenean-Cantabrian Mountains (N Spain): Geodynamic evolution of near-equator European Permian basins

Joan Lloret et al.

Summary: This study integrates detailed stratigraphic, sedimentary, tectonic, paleosol, and magmatic data to reveal a similar geodynamic evolution across the Pyrenean-Cantabrian Ranges at the end of the Variscan cycle. The lower-middle Permian basins started their development under an extensional regime related to the end of the Variscan Belt collapse, transitioning to Pangea breakup in the middle Permian times. The comparison with other basins near the paleoequator shows common features of magmatic activity, extensional tectonics, high subsidence rates, thick sedimentary records, and periods without sedimentation, providing a better understanding of major crustal re-equilibration and reorganization in Western-Central Europe during the post-Variscan period.
