A collection of 11 papers on Carbonate Sedimentology which discusses case histories from Europe and the Middle East. Each case history comprises a description and interpretation of carbonate facies, their sequences and tectonic controls.
The extinction that wiped out 95% of the living species at the end of the Paleozoic era can be explained by the fact that when it happened, all landmasses were one continent, Pangea, with an inner ocean, the Paleo-Tethys. This ocean included the richest niches in the late Permia…
The existence of the Cathaysian bridge seems to have helped the formation of anoxic conditions in the Paleo-Tethys. In fact, it seems that the major Permian extinctions began in the Paleo-Tethys and were really mainly felt in it and in areas influenced by it. This isolated setti…
