Paleosol morphology and geochemistry in sedimentary strata have accumulated to produce a high resolution record of Permo-Triassic (PT) paleoclimate and paleoenvironments that spans a large swath of the African continent. This geographically-extensive dataset records changes in climate during a major mass extinction event and time of terrestrial env...

... the stable carbon isotope data from well-drained paleosol pro- files containing pedogenic carbonate untainted by diagenetic tex- tures or mineralogies are presented here (Tabor and Myers, 2015;Michel et al., 2016;Tabor et al., 2017). These paleosol data consist of 125 paired calcite-organic matter d 13 C values that are binned chronostratigraphically into the early Permian, late Permian, and Early to Middle Triassic (Table 2). ...

... subscript (cc) indicates calcite; d 13 C CC is the measured d 13 C value of pedogenic calcite (d 13 C CC in Tables 1 and 2). The d 13 C values subscripted with 'A' and 'O' are predicted d 13 C val- ues of calcite if formed solely in equilibrium with CO 2 derived from the atmosphere and from oxidation of soil matter (i.e., respired CO 2 ; equivalent to S(z) in Equation 1), respectively. ...

Yet, this data set documents a range of D 13 C cc-om values such that, under the prescribed conditions of soil-respired pCO 2 for soils ( Breecker et al., 2009) and paleosols (Breecker et al., 2010), correspond to a range of atmospheric pCO 2 values ranging from less than 100 to 2200 ppm V may be estimated, a range nearly equivalent to atmospheric pCO 2 estimates for the entire Phanerozoic as estimated in Breecker and others (2010). ...

In this stratigraphic succession, the overall pattern of MAP inferred from D 13 C cc-om values is somewhat irregular but defines a long-term trend toward lower MAP estimates, which range from highs near »30 cm in the Wolfcampian to <10 cm in upper Leonardian strata ( Table 2). The lower Permian strata sampled in Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Utah are all Wolfcam- pian-aged and correlate with the lower half of the Texas strati- graphic section (Table 2). ...
