Book Chapter
Font, E., & Bond, D. P. (2021). Volcanism and Mass Extinction. In D. Alderton, & S. A. Elias (Eds.), Encyclopedia of Geology (596-606). (2nd ed.). London: Academic Press. https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-409548-9.12108-6

During the Phanerozoic, life on Earth experienced several mass extinctions, each associated with major climatic and environmental changes. The cause(s) of the biotic crises have been debated for decades but recent improvements in radioisotopic dating... Read More about Volcanism and Mass Extinction.

Tellurium in Late Permian-Early Triassic Sediments as a Proxy for Siberian Flood Basalt Volcanism (2020)
Journal Article
Regelous, M., Regelous, A., Grasby, S. E., Bond, D. P., Haase, K. M., Gleißner, S., & Wignall, P. B. (2020). Tellurium in Late Permian-Early Triassic Sediments as a Proxy for Siberian Flood Basalt Volcanism. Geochemistry, geophysics, geosystems G³, 21(11), Article e2020GC009064. https://doi.org/10.1029/2020GC009064

We measured the concentrations of trace elements in Late Permian to Early Triassic sediments from Spitsbergen. High mercury concentrations in sediments from the level of the Permo-Triassic Mass Extinction (PTME) at this location were previously attri...

Size variations in foraminifers from the early Permian to the Late Triassic: Implications for the Guadalupian-Lopingian and the Permian-Triassic mass extinctions (2020)
Journal Article
Feng, Y., Song, H., & Bond, D. P. (2020). Size variations in foraminifers from the early Permian to the Late Triassic: Implications for the Guadalupian-Lopingian and the Permian-Triassic mass extinctions. Paleobiology, 46(4), 511-532. https://doi.org/10.1017/pab.2020.37

The final 10 Myr of the Paleozoic saw two of the biggest biological crises in Earth history: the middlePermian extinction (often termed the Guadalupian–Lopingian extinction [GLE]) that was followed 7–8 Myr later by Earth's most catastrophic loss of d...

Migration controls extinction and survival patterns of foraminifers during the Permian-Triassic crisis in South China (2020)
Journal Article
Benton, M. J., Liu, X., Song, H., Bond, D. P., Tong, J., & Benton, M. (2020). Migration controls extinction and survival patterns of foraminifers during the Permian-Triassic crisis in South China. Earth-Science Reviews, 209, Article 103329. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2020.103329

The Permian-Triassic mass extinction, the greatest biotic crisis in Earth history, triggered the complete replacement of ecosystems with the 5–10% surviving species giving rise to the Mesozoic fauna. Despite a long history of systematic studies on Pe... Read More about Migration controls extinction and survival patterns of foraminifers during the Permian-Triassic crisis in South China.

We propose an updated ammonoid zonation for the Permian-Triassic boundary succession (the lower Nekuchan Formation) in the Verkhoyansk region of Siberia: (1) Otoceras concavum zone (uppermost Changhsingian); (2) Otoceras boreale zone (lowermost Indua...

Late Ordovician mass extinction caused by volcanism, warming, and anoxia, not cooling and glaciation (2020)
Journal Article
Bond, D. P., & Grasby, S. E. (2020). Late Ordovician mass extinction caused by volcanism, warming, and anoxia, not cooling and glaciation. Geology, 48(8), 777-781. https://doi.org/10.1130/G47377.1

The Ordovician saw major diversification in marine life abruptly terminated by the Late Ordovician mass extinction (LOME). Around 85% of species were eliminated in two pulses 1 m.y. apart. The first pulse, in the basal Hirnantian, has been linked to... Read More about Late Ordovician mass extinction caused by volcanism, warming, and anoxia, not cooling and glaciation.
