Abstract

The article presents the study on the Toarcian oceanic anoxic events (T-OAE) during the Toarcian period. The study shows that black shales were deposited on the pericontinental shelves of Pangaea during the early Toarcian period and is believed to represent oceanic anoxic event. The study also mentions that the distribution of black shales during the T-OAE is similar to the Mesozoic OAE.
