Register of increasing continentalization and palaeoenvironmental changes in the west-central pangaea during the Permian-Triassic, Parnaíba Basin, Northern Brazil

Luminescence signals of quartz and feldspar as new methods for stratigraphic discrimination and provenance analysis of siliciclastic successions: The case of the Parnaíba Basin (Brazil) of West Gondwana

Concurrently, depositional environments became increasingly continental in a warm and arid climate (Abrantes et al., 2019). The dry climax was the Sambaíba Desert recorded by the homonymous formation.…”
