Origin of the Songpan–Garzê terrane, Tibetan Plateau: a perspective from the tectonic evolution of the Palaeo-Tethys Ocean Available to Purchase
Abstract The Songpan–Garzê terrane is the largest Triassic remnant flysch basin on Earth and formed as the Palaeo-Tethys Ocean closed during the final amalgamation of the Pangaea supercontinent. However, the origin of the Songpan–Garzê terrane is highly controversial. A synthesis of the tectonic evolution of the Palaeo-Tethys Ocean and its branches surrounding the Songpan–Garzê terrane is presented, which clarifies the nature and relationships among the many Palaeo-Tethys sutures. Provenance analyses suggest that branches of the Palaeo-Tethys near the Songpan–Garzê terrane closed before the Early Triassic. In contrast, the main Palaeo-Tethys Ocean (Longmu Co-Shuanghu) did not close until the beginning of the Late Triassic. This study argues against the Songpan–Garzê terrane being a remnant ocean basin, and proposes that it was a back-arc basin of the main Palaeo-Tethys Ocean. It initially underwent extension by the combined effects of the main Palaeo-Tethys Ocean subduction and the Emeishan mantle plume in the Late Permian, and subsequently developed into a back-arc basin in the Triassic, into which huge turbiditie units were deposited derived from all surrounding terranes and orogens. The final closure of the main Palaeo-Tethys Ocean in the beginning of the Late Triassic and subsequent continent–continent collision led to basin inversion in the Late Triassic.

Jehol fossils from the Jiaolai Basin of Shandong, North China: review and new perspectives Available to Purchase
Abstract Starting in the early 1950s, palaeontologists began to discover a wide range of Cretaceous terrestrial fossils in the Laiyang, Qingshan and Wangshi groups of the Jiaolai Basin, which resides in the eastern part of the Shandong Peninsula of northern China. Significant specimens from these deposits include various dinosaur eggs, footprints and fossils, including hadrosauroids, tyrannosaurids and ankylosaurids. These expanded the understanding of evolution, biodiversity and palaeoecology in East Asia. While many examples of the Jehol Biota from this area are not well constrained in terms of their stratigraphy and geochronology, previous studies have generally suggested that fossils from this region represent the second or third phase of Jehol Biota development. This paper reviews fossils, stratigraphic correlations, tectonic history and age estimates for the less well-studied outcrops of the Shandong Peninsula that host the Jehol Biota. We report three new 40 Ar/ 39 Ar ages for the Qingshang Group and discuss how these somewhat imprecise ages still constrain chronostratigraphic interpretation for the fossil-rich units.
Detrital zircon geochronology of Late Cretaceous successions in the Ganzhou Basin, South China: evidence of a major tectonic transition Available to Purchase
Abstract Situated within the southern segment of the South China Block, the Ganzhou Basin formed owing to subduction of the palaeo-Pacific plate beneath the South China Block. Late Cretaceous successions in this basin consist of fluvial and lacustrine facies red beds hosting abundant dinosaur and dinosaur egg fossils. This study reports detrital zircon geochronological data from a crystallized tuff and four sandstones found in the Late Cretaceous Ganzhou Group of the Ganzhou Basin. Age distributions included four major age subpopulations of predominantly Triassic, Devonian–Ordovician, Neoproterozoic and Paleoproterozoic ages. These indicate source material derived from Yanshanian and Triassic granitoids as well as from Kwangsian and Jiangnan orogens. Age signatures generally resemble those recorded in the adjacent Nanxiong Basin but also include distinctive features. Provenance signatures from successive units indicate a tectonic transition from intracontinental extension at c. 120 Ma to compression near the Cretaceous/Paleogene boundary. This tectonic transition was probably driven by continent–continent collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates, as well as by a shift in the subduction direction of the palaeo-Pacific plate beneath the Eurasian plate.

Carboniferous macrofloral biostratigraphy: an overview Available to Purchase
Abstract In the Carboniferous, terrestrial vegetation became widespread, diverse and abundant. The resulting fossil record has proved to be an effective biostratigraphic tool for intra- and interbasinal correlations. Besides palaeogeographical configurations, Carboniferous plant biostratigraphy is affected by a transition from greenhouse conditions during most of the Mississippian to an icehouse climate in the Pennsylvanian. The greenhouse Mississippian climate resulted in weak provincialism, with a cosmopolitan flora ranging from the tropics to middle latitudes. The global cooling around the Mississippian–Pennsylvanian boundary enhanced development of a latitudinal climatic zonation and related floral provincialism. These changes are expressed in the recognition of distinct realms or kingdoms, where the tropical Amerosinian Realm (or Euramerican and Cathaysian realms) is surrounded by the Angaran and Gondwanan realms occupying middle to high latitudes of the northern and southern hemispheres, respectively. Floristic endemism in the Pennsylvanian precludes development of a global macrofloral biostratigraphy. Instead, each realm or area has its own biostratigraphic scheme. Poorer and less diverse floras of the Gondwanan and Angaran realms resulted in the establishment of relatively low-resolution macrofloral biostratigraphic schemes. Higher-resolution macrofloral zonations exist only in the tropical Amerosinian Realm due to diverse and abundant floras dominated by free-sporing and early seed plants occupying extensive wetlands.
