Black shale deposition and faunal overturn in the Devonian Appalachian Basin: Clastic starvation, seasonal water‐column mixing, and efficient biolimiting nutrient recycling
Abstract
Integrated geochemical data suggest that black shale deposition in the Devonian Geneseo Formation of western New York was initiated by the coincidence of siliciclastic starvation and the intensification of seasonal water column stratification and mixing. Once established, however, black shale deposition was maintained through efficient recycling of biolimiting nutrients which enhanced primary productivity. Recycling efficiency was achieved through a positive feedback loop of oscillating benthic redox conditions that enhanced N and P regeneration from sediments, sustained high primary productivity by returning nutrients to the photic zone during mixing, and ensured a downward flux of organic matter that drove or enhanced the episodic development of benthic anoxia during stratification. This feedback was ultimately disrupted by rising siliciclastic influx, which diluted organic matter and restored benthic redox stability. The abrupt overturn of diverse, long‐standing Appalachian basin marine communities may have been the result of trophic resource destabilization during Geneseo deposition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
