Tipper Ocean acidification and the Permo-Triassic mass extinction https://archive.org/details/Science_April_10_2015_USA/ Science (journal) Science 348 6231 0036-8075 229–230 https://archive.org/details/Science_April_10_2015_USA/page/n92/ There is no evidence for a large drop in PCO2, and independent proxy data indicate only a minor temperature decrease of a few degrees Celsius during the Changhsingian (22), suggesting that these mechanisms alone cannot explain the pH increase (fig. S5).

This long-term middle Wuchiapingian-early Changhsingian anoxia event could be correlated both regionally and globally, and was caused by paleogeographic restrictions, relative high sea levels, high marine productivities, and possible global climate changes.
