A Comprehensive Introduction to The Triassic Period & Events / by Alexander, Akira, author 648869

“…The extinction event that closed the Triassic Period has recently been more accurately dated, but as with most older geological periods, the rock beds that define the start and end are well identified, but the exact dates of the start and end of the period are uncertain by a few million years. …”

Research on the relationship between hydrocarbon source-reservoir assemblage system and lacustrine level changes in Triassic period of Lunnan area by Chaoqun Shi, Hao Li, Huixian Lv, Jingyan Liu, Di Sun, Huoxiang Dong, Siyu Zhou, Ming Cheng, Shaofang Cao, Xing Zhang

“…On this basis, the cumulative offset value was calculated, and finally the lacustrine level changes curve was established during the Triassic period in Lunnan area. The results show that there were three obvious lacustrine level fluctuation cycles in the Triassic period in this area. …”

Trace Element Composition of Pyrite from Selected Black Shale and Chert Exposures in the Central Belt of Peninsular Malaysia: Implications for Mineral Exploration by Charles Makoundi, Khin Zaw, Zakaria Endut, Hareyani Zabidi

“…EPMA and LA ICP-MS data show consistent Se content variation in the Devonian and Permo-Triassic periods. Using selenium as a proxy for atmospheric oxygenation, the lowest level of Se content in the Permo-Triassic period is believed to decrease atmospheric oxygenation, as recorded in sedimentary pyrite found in black shale from the Selinsing gold deposit. …”

Understanding the provenance and depositional conditions of Triassic sedimentary rocks from the Spiti region, Tethys Himalaya, India by Javid A. Ganai, Shaik A. Rashid, Abdul Samad Siddiqui, Nurul Absar, Heena, Ghulam Jeelani

“…The εNd and 87Sr/86Sr systematics record a shift in source terrains from the Early to Late Triassic period. The Early Triassic samples show much older depleted mantle model ages (TDM = 1.94–1.98 Ga) compared to Late Triassic sediments (TDM = 1.76–1.91 Ga). …”

Hemispheric Symmetry of Planetary Albedo: A Corollary of Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics by Hsien-Wang Ou

Extant thrips diverged in the early tertiary period by Chunying Wu, Hongrui Zhang

“…Abstract Thysanoptera, commonly known as thrips, are diverse tiny insects whose earliest fossil record dates back to the Triassic period. Since there are few studies on the divergence time of taxa under Thysanoptera, this study used 13 mitochondrial coding protein genes to reconstruct the phylogenetic tree with divergence time of 26 species of this order and show a reliable phylogenetic relationship of thrips species. …”

Evolution of Mammals / by Matos, Raymonde, author 648775

“…The synapsid lineage became distinct from the sauropsid ("reptile") lineage in the late Carboniferous period, between 320 and 315 million years ago, and were the most common and largest land vertebrates of the Permian period. But in the Triassic period a previously obscure group of sauropsids, the archosaurs, became the dominant vertebrates and one archosaur group, the dinosaurs, dominated the rest of the Mesozoic era. …”

Mammals (Class of Air-breathing Vertebrate Animals) / by Galindo, Jovan, author 648804

“…Although they were preceded by many diverse groups of non-mammalian synapsids (sometimes misleadingly referred to as mammal-like reptiles), the first true mammals appeared in the Triassic period. Modern mammalian orders appeared in the Palaeocene and Eocene epochs of the Palacogene period: Phylogenetically, the clade Mammalia is defined as all descendants of the most recent common ancestor of monotremes (eg .. echidnas and platypuses) and therian manuals (marsupials and placentals).…”
