Beschreibungen

<p>This book timely provides high-quality records of 32 PTB sections across different depositional settings from terrestrial to marine facies in South China, including descriptions of lithologies, high-resolution correlation of key boundaries and fossil occurrences at each section. This book also analyzes the patterns and processes of the community and ecosystem evolution over space and through time in the lead to the end-Permian mass extinction, and critically analyzes the mostly debated hypothesis, anoxia and volcanism, which were considered as the causes of mass extinction, based on the data from the studied sections of South China, together with materials from other regions of the world.</p>
<p>1 Introduction.- 2 Palaeogeographical settings of South China in the Changhsingian to Induan and palaeogeographic distribution of the studied Permian Triassic Boundary sections.- 3 Description of the studied Permian Triassic Boundary sections of South China.- 4 Age analysis and correlation.- 5 Temporal and spatial processes and dynamics of the Permian Triassic Boundary mass extinction (PTBME) in South China.</p>
Prof. Weihong works at the State Key Laboratory of Biogeology and Environmental Geology and School of Earth Sciences, China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, China. Her research interests include Permian-Triassic brachiopods, radiolarians, bivalves, cephalopods, paleoecology, and paleoenvironment. She is the winner of the Endeavour Research&nbsp;Fellowship awarded by Australia Government in 2009, the Winner of Education Ministry's New Century Excellent Talents Supporting Plan in 2010, and has the title of Provincial Young and Middle-aged Expert with Outstanding Contributions. She has published more than 70 papers in many peer-reviewed journals as the main author or co-author, covering Journal of Systematic Palaeontology, Journal of Paleontology, as well as Geobiology.<br><p></p><p></p>

<p>Prof. Haishui Jiang works at the State Key Laboratory of Biogeology and Environmental Geology and School of Earth Sciences, China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, China, and was promoted as a professor of Paleontology and Stratigraphy since June 2016. His research interests involve the Permian and Triassic conodonts and stratigraphy correlation and has also worked at University of Leicester, Leicester, UK, as a visiting researcher (2007-2008). He has published more than 30 papers in many peer-reviewed journals as the main author or the co-author, covering Science, Geology, Earth Science Reviews, Global and Planetary Change, Lethaia, Palaios, Journal of Earth Science, Journal of Asian Earth Sciences as well as Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology.&nbsp;</p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p>Prof. Kexin Zhang is now Professor at China University of Geosciences, Wuhan. His research interests involve Micropaleontology (conodont), Sequence Stratigraphy, Cenozoic sedimentary and uplift of the Tibet Plateau. He has won National Science and Technology Award in 2002 and Special Award of the National Science and Technology Progress Award in 2011. As one of major authors, he firstly proposed the conodont&nbsp;<i>Hindeodus parvus</i>&nbsp;as the index fossil for the Permian-Triassic boundary at the GSSP section, Meishan Section D of South China. He has published more than 240 papers in many peer-reviewed journals as the main author or the co-author and also authored a number of books and chapters.&nbsp;</p><p></p>

<p>Prof. Jianxin Yu works at the State Key Laboratory of Biogeology and Environmental Geology and School of Earth Sciences, China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, China.
