Late Devonian carbon isotope chemostratigraphy: A new record from the offshore facies of South China

We present a new biostratigraphically constrained carbon isotope record from the Lali section (South China) to document perturbations in the Late Devonian carbon cycle. Positive carbon isotope excursions (CIEs) are most important components of the Late Devonian long-term carbon isotope cycle: Frasnes (+2‰), Middlesex (+1‰), Lower Kellwasser (+3‰), Upper Kellwasser (+3‰) and Upper annulata (+1‰) events, as well as a small positive CIE (+1‰) in...
