Mid-latitudinal habitable environment for marine eukaryotes during the waning stage of the Marinoan snowball glaciation

Mid-latitudinal habitable environment for marine eukaryotes during the waning stage of the Marinoan snowball glaciation

Based on geochemical and paleontological data, this study shows that habitable open-oceans extended to mid-latitude coastal oceans during the waning stage of the Marinoan snowball Earth, offering refugia for benthic photosynthetic eukaryotes
