The Early Devonian witnessed a major phase in the terrestrialization of land by plants. Understanding the implications for organic matter formation and accumulation during this interval is key to understanding global carbon burial. Existing research...

Modelling pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) is a challenging yet essential element of hazard assessment. PDCs are unpredictable and internal processes are often difficult to measure directly. Analogue experiments have been an important tool for inv...

Ash layers within extensive pyroclastic density current (PDC) deposits can be important in understanding the evolution of explosive eruptions. If interpreted as ashfall deposits, they may be used to identify hiatus episodes and determine how many pyr...

Re-evaluating Water Column Reoxygenation during the End Permian Mass Extinction (2024)
Journal Article

Ocean anoxia is considered a key driver of the end-Permian mass extinction (EPME). However, it is much debated whether there was an ocean reoxygenation phase during, and in the aftermath, of the EPME. Evidence for ocean reoxygenation is often inferre...
