Sedimentary evolution of the continental Early–Middle Triassic Cañizar Formation (Central Spain): Implications for life recovery after the Permian–Triassic crisis

Abstract: The Permian-Triassic transition (P-T) was marked by important geochemical perturbations and the largest known life crisis. Consequences of this event, as oxygen-depleted conditions and the unusual behavior of the carbon cycle, were prolonged during the Early Triassic interval delaying the recovery of life in both ter restrial and marine ecosystems. Studies on Lower Triassic sediments of continental origin, as in the case of Western Europe, are especially problematic due to the scarcity of fossils and absence o… Show more

“…Sandy fluvial systems (SB, CH and FF elements) evolved as unconfined systems in the Prades subbasin. The scarce presence of vegetation allowed extensive lateral development of the fluvial systems similar to examples described by López-Gómez et al (2012) in similar Triassic red beds of Central Europe, Lodeve Basin (SE France) and Iberian Basin (E Spain).…”

“…Magnetostratigraphic studies in this megasequence indicate a Spathian (late Olenekian) age for most of the Riera de San Jaume sequence, with an Aegian (early Anisian) age for its uppermost part, and Bithynian to Illyrian age for El Figarò s.s (Dinarès-Turell et al, 2005). However, we consider the lower part of the Buntsandstein sedimentary cycle could be of Smithian age when the general characteristics of the sedimentary succession are compared to those of similar successions of neighbour basins of Spain and SE France described by Péron et al (2005), López-Gómez et al (2012). Studies based on tetrapod bones and footprints (Calzada, 1987;Gaete et al, 1994;Fortuny et al, 2011) in the overlying El Figaró Lutites and Sandstones unit, allowed to establish lithostratigraphic correlations with units of the neighbouring Iberian basin (Arche et al, 2004;Galán-Abellán, 2011), corroborating this age.…”

“…For this purpose, we consider the variations in extreme conditions during this particular period on Earth, in order to better understand the palaeoenvironmental and habitability changes produced in Meridiani Martian regions. Although there are clear differences between both sites and periods such as age (247 Myr vs. 3.7 Gyr) (Hynek and Phillips, 2008;López-Gómez et al, 2012) or atmospheric composition (oxic vs. anoxic) (Berner, 2006;Lammer et al, 2013), nevertheless they present strikingly similar, sedimentary features, and mineralogical associations. Thus, this paper may provide a step forward in the understanding of the causes that led to a life recovery in the Triassic of the Earth and that could have prevented its appearance and/or development on early Mars.…”
