"KEY POINTS
• Basalts and pebbly to cobbly sandstones have been dredged from the Fairway Ridge, Coral Sea
• Dating of the rocks and interpretation of magnetic anomalies allow mapping of major geological units across North Zealandia
• This work completes offshore reconnaissance geological mapping of the entire 5 million square km Zealandia continent…”

A very cool study using #clumped #isotope measurements in #oyster shells from the Early #Cretaceous showing high and variable #seasonality in response to climate changes caused by atmospheric #CO2 shifts. #mollusk shells again demonstrated as useful climate archives!

Nice study testing models for #solid #state #reordering of #clumped #isotope values in #carbonate.

Thermal-induced #crystallographic transformation in shells of #mussels reveal that crystallographic features in the #carbonate are more resistant to #diagenetic alteration than stable #isotope ratios.
