The onset of the permo-carboniferous glaciation: Reconciling global stratigraphic evidence with biogenic apatite δ18O records in the late Visean
The δ18O values of phosphatic microfossils recovered from NW Ireland are used to determine the timing and magnitude of cooling associated with the onset of the Carboniferous glaciation. Microfossil fish δ18Oapatite demonstrates a +2.4‰ (V-SMOW) shift, which, once corrected for δ18Oseawater changes o...
