Journal ArticleDOI

Eukaryotic organisms in Proterozoic oceans

TL;DR: Focus on character evolution permits inferences about the innovations in cell biology and development that underpin the taxonomic and morphological diversification of eukaryotic organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Calibrating the Cryogenian.

TL;DR: Four high-precision U-Pb ages for Neoproterozoic rocks in northwestern Canada are presented that constrain large perturbations in the carbon cycle, a major diversification and depletion in the microfossil record, and the onset of the Sturtian glaciation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Snowball Earth climate dynamics and Cryogenian geology-geobiology

TL;DR: Modeling shows that the small thermal inertia of a globally frozen surface reverses the annual mean tropical atmospheric circulation, producing an equatorial desert and net snow and frost accumulation elsewhere, and that the evolutionary legacy of Snowball Earth is perceptible in fossils and living organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large Spinose Microfossils in Ediacaran Rocks as Resting Stages of Early Animals

TL;DR: The form, diversity, and stratigraphic range of LOEMs illuminate life cycle evolution in early animals as influenced by the evolving redox state of the oceans.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Proterozoic Record of Eukaryotes

TL;DR: For example, the authors show that mean within assemblage diversity increases through the Proterozoic Eon due to an increase in high diversity assemblages, and that this trend is robust to various external factors including lithology and paleogeographic location.
