A new model for the Kellwasser Anoxia Events (Late Devonian): Shallow water anoxia in an open oceanic setting in the Central Asian Orogenic Belt

Abstract: The Frasnian-Famennian mass extinction event devastated tropical marine ecosystems and ranks in the top six in taxonomic and ecological severity. The close stratigraphic association between the extinction and the Kellwasser Anoxia Events support a link between oceanographic anoxia and extinction. The Upper and Lower Kellwasser horizons have been identified in epicontinental and basinal settings in Laurussia, Gondwana, Siberia, and South China. The Hongguleleng Formation (Late Devonian) in northwestern Xinjiang… Show more

“…Similar storm/tsunami deposits have been also reported elsewhere in the same stratigraphic interval (Racki et al 2002;Bond & Wignall 2008;Du et al 2008;Carmichael et al 2014). The UKW is responsible for the last Frasnian extinctions of brachiopods (e.g.…”

“…As the chemocline expanded, the shelf/upper slope transitioned from an oxic to euxinic depositional environment; this is associated with the F-F event. (Savoy, 1992;Joachimski and Buggisch, 1993;Joachimski et al, 2001;Yudina et al, 2002;Bond et al, 2004Bond et al, , 2013Brown and Kenig, 2004;Tribovillard et al, 2004;Riquier et al, 2006;Carmichael et al, 2014). Thus, while the expansion of marine euxinia may not be the sole cause of the Late Devonian extinctions, it remains a viable driver of these extinctions.…”

“…Regardless of the trigger, the development and spread of euxinia in the oceans have been hypothesized as key drivers of the F-F extinctions (Savoy, 1992;Joachimski and Buggisch, 1993;Joachimski et al, 2001;Yudina et al, 2002;Bond et al, 2004Bond et al, , 2013Brown and Kenig, 2004;Tribovillard et al, 2004;Riquier et al, 2006;Carmichael et al, 2014). This mechanism has been invoked for other Phanerozoic extinction events, such as the end-Permian event (e.g., Newton et al, 2004;Grice et al, 2005;Riccardi et al, 2006).…”
