Carbon-isotope record of the Early Jurassic (Toarcian) Oceanic Anoxic Event from fossil wood and marine carbonate (Lusitanian Basin, Portugal)
The Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE) in the Early Jurassic (∼ 183 Ma ago) was characterized by widespread near-synchronous deposition of organic-rich shales in marine settings, as well as perturbations to several isotopic systems. Characteristically, two positive carbon-isotope excursions in a ra...
