Euxinic Ocean during the Late Devonian Mass Extinction Inferred from Organic Compounds

摘要：

There were five mass extinctions of Earth life during the past 500 million years. The second crisis of the big five mass extinctions occurred near the Frasnian/Famennian (F/F) boundary in the Late Devonian. This extinction impacted mainly oceanic regime and resulted in 21％ of families and 50％ of genera among oceanic life being wiped out (Sepkoski, 1986). In particular, brachiopods, trilobites, conodonts, tabulate corals, and stromatoporoids have been severely affected and suffered high extinction rates (McGhee,1996, 1989; Stanley, 1987).
