“…The episodic cycle has been linked to global orogenesis, 31–33 granitoid magmatism and zircon age peaks, 34–37 crustal growth, 38–41 mineralization, 42–48 large igneous provinces (LIPs) 49–53 and deep mantle convection patterns 54–60 . Additionally, the cycle has been shown to have profound affects on sea level, 61–66 ocean chemistry, 35,67–69 the stable isotope record, 35,70–72 patterns of sedimentation, 73–75 atmospheric composition, 76–78 global biogeochemical cycles, 4,79,80 climate 74,81–84 marine biodiversity, 85,86 and the evolution of life 83,87,88 …”
