• A basin redox transect at the dawn of animal life (2012, background): “…(Planavsky et al., 2010; Frei et al., 2009), or the use of oxygenated ‘oases’ beneath photosynthetic mats by the earliest trace makers in the geological record (Gingras et al., 2011), but it does suggest that such conditions were not necessary for the origin of either animals or bilaterians.”
