Molybdenum isotopic evidence for oxic marine conditions during the latest Permian extinction

The latest Permian extinction (LPE), ca. 252 Ma, represents the most severe extinctionevent in Earth’s history. The cause is still debated, but widespread marine anoxicto euxinic (H2S rich) conditions, from deep to shallow water environments, are commonlysuggested. As a proxy for marine oxygen level...
