Dynamics of a stepped carbon-isotope excursion: Ultra high-resolution study of Early Toarcian environmental change

In the Toarcian (Early Jurassic; ~183Myr ago), the ocean-atmosphere system was subject to one of the largest perturbations of the carbon cycle in the last 250Myr known as the Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T-OAE). This event was accompanied by a -6‰ negative carbon-isotope excursion (CIE) caused by...
