Abstract | The Cambrian occupies a time of dramatic climatic and environmental changes, which proudly
influenced the early evolutionary trajectory of animals. Changes in atmospheric greenhouse gas
concentration and oxygen, as well as nutrient fluxes to the ocean, are intimately linked with volcanism
and chemical weathering processes, which are largely driven by plate tectonic processes. The Cambrian
is a period characterized by widespread plate re-organization associated with the amalgamation of
Gondwana, and understanding the spatial extent and duration of orogenic systems around the various
Gondwana terranes is critical to understand the principal mechanisms responsible for changes in
Earth’s surface environment during this time. Here, I present detrital zircon U-Pb and Hf isotopic data
in conjunction with trilobite biogeographical data to assess the paleogeographic configuration of
eastern Gondwana, with an emphasis on the relationship between the Shan Thai (Thailand) terrane and
other prominent regional terranes. I will further discuss the importance insights to be gained through
future studies in the Turatao Formation in Thailand with respect to critical questions of Earth system
evolution. |
