Variations in preservation of exceptional fossils within concretions
Concretions are an interesting mode of preservation that can occasionally yield fossils with soft tissues. To properly interpret these fossils, an...

Oxygenation of the Earth aided by mineral–organic carbon preservation
Photosynthesis produces molecular oxygen, but it is the burial of organic carbon in sediments that has allowed this O 2 to accumulate in Earth’s...

The effect of iron on the preservation of organic carbon in marine sediments and its implications for carbon sequestration
Marine sediments are the most significant reservoir of organic carbon (OC) in Earth’s surface system. Iron, a crucial component of the marine...

Palaeozoic cooling modulated by ophiolite weathering through organic carbon preservation
Ophiolite obductions in the tropics are coeval with Phanerozoic glaciations. The exposure of mafic and ultramafic rocks is thought to trigger cooling...

Preservation conditions and potential evaluation of the Longmaxi shale gas reservoir in the Changning area, southern Sichuan Basin
The production of shale gas varies greatly in different regions due to the way gas has accumulated and preserved. This work investigates the dynamic...

Input and preservation of organic matter in the Upper Permian shale from the Lower Yangtze Platform, South China: evidence from organic and inorganic geochemistry
During the Late Permian Wuchiapingian–Changhsingian (W–C) transition, significant biotic and environmental changes occurred. These changes had the...

Formation and prolonged preservation of dense arc root cumulates: insights from retrograded eclogite xenoliths in the western Yangtze craton
Delamination of dense mafic/ultramafic materials in arc roots has long been considered as the fundamental step in the paradigm of making an andesitic...

Differential skeletal preservation between sexes: a diachronic study in Milan over 2000 years
A recurring observation in the literature is that females tend to be less represented than males in osteological collections. How can we explain such...
