Did global tectonics drive early biosphere evolution? Carbon isotope record from 2.6 to 1.9 Ga carbonates of Western Australian basins
The δ13Ccarb record of well preserved carbonates in outcrop and core is here examined from the 2.6 to 1.9 Ga old basins of Western Australia. These data, which are constrained by a well defined stratigraphic and tectonic framework, and by U-Pb zircon ages, provide an insight into the variables coinc...
