Carbon isotope negative excursions across the Triassic-Jurassic boundary interval in the Tibetan Himalayas

扫码查看
Fossils from sections at Germig in the Tibetan Himalayas allow the establishment of ammonoid assemblages ranging from uppermost Triassic to basal Jurassic。 The carbon isotope profile from these sections shows a majority of positive values in the Rhaetian, and negative values within the Hettangian intervals。 Pronounced negative excursions between the Triassic and Jurassic boundary corresponds to the end-Triassic extinction。 A stepwise pattern of the end-Triassic extinction is demonstrated by the bivalves and ammonoids。 However, the warm episode persisting throughout from late Triassic to basal Hettangian in the Tibetan Himalayas, indicated by subtropic and tropic forms remains to be interpreted。
