Trouble Upstairs: Reconstructing Permian-Triassic Climate during Siberian Traps Magmatism
Offered By: AGU via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a 21-minute conference talk from the 2014 AGU Fall Meeting that delves into the impact of Siberian Traps magmatism on Permian-Triassic climate and ecosystems. Discover how researchers used numerical experiments to investigate the effects of volcanic degassing on atmospheric chemistry, ocean circulation, and terrestrial biota. Learn about the potential kill mechanisms triggered by this massive eruption, including acid rain and ozone depletion, and their implications for the catastrophic extinction event at the Permian-Triassic boundary. Gain insights into the complex interplay between Earth's interior processes and surface habitability, and how these factors may have contributed to one of the most severe ecological crises in Earth's history.
