The oceans were toxic, and some creatures dissolved in waters that became acidic too. This is the story of the end-Triassic extinction. https://t.co/LZIdtEl2aR
"Our findings predict that a temperature increase of 5.2°C above the pre-industrial level at present rates of increase would likely result in mass extinction...even without other, non-climatic anthropogenic impacts." https://t.co/98EmuS5Ntr
The China National Space Administration (CNSA) Friday released new images taken by the China’s 1st Mars rover #Zhurong, showing national flag on the red planet, landing site panorama, Martian landscape, and a selfie of the rover with the landing platform.
China’s Mars probe Tianwen-1 has touched down on the red planet, marking the first time that China has landed a probe on a planet other than Earth, the China National Space Administration confirmed on Saturday morning. (file pic) https://t.co/rlnicpv23s
A new dawn at the @icdpDrilling@JET_Prees drill site: top drive was fixed, drilling depth now at about 510 m. 81 cores so far. More lovely grey mudstone, ammonites suggest we are in the upper Hettangian, on the way towards Triassic. https://t.co/IFsSMVZeE4
Coring ahead @icdpDrilling@JET_Prees drillsite, drilling depth at 300m, but slow going. Rocks similar to age-equivalent strata in North Yorkshire (Siliceous Shale): a clue to the tough coring in the name? https://t.co/dUye250ZEF
Hi iron isotope fans, here’s a nice job opportunity - this one’s in Cambridge with time also spent in @CohenGeochem @ESSILeeds Post-doctoral research associate in sedimentary iron isotope analysis (Fixed Term) @Cambridge_Uni https://t.co/ElFzyT0YEY
New research suggests that dwindling oxygen in the world’s oceans may have been partially responsible for the end-Triassic mass extinction event, one of the “Big Five” extinctions in Earth’s history. https://t.co/xwpWV2J0QP
