"Reassessing the chronostratigraphy and tempo of climate change in the " by G. R. Shi, Allen P. Nutman et al.
The Permian of the southern Sydney Basin (Australia) comprises both marine and non-marine sedimentary sequences with evidence of glacial deposition and syndepositional magmatism represented by tuffs, lava flows and hypabyssal intrusions. This succession has been well-studied in lithostratigraphy and sedimentology, but the Lower-Middle Permian chronostratigraphy remains poorly constrained due to a lack of radiometric isotope ages and strong faunal endemism. In this study, we report the first suite of reconnaissance U–Pb zircon ages from this succession, comprising two Wandrawandian Siltstone ...
