"... The recurring
pattern of pluvial events during the late Triassic demonstrates that orbital forcing, in particular
eccentricity, stimulated the occurrence and intensity of wet phases. It also highlights the possibility
that the Carnian Pluvial Event, although most likely triggered by enhanced volcanic activity, may also
have been modified by an orbital stimulus. ..."

"... Here, we show, in a detailed record from a
lake in North China, that the CPE can actually be resolved into
four distinct events, each one driven by a discrete pulse of intense
volcanism associated with enormous releases of carbon
dioxide into the atmosphere. These triggered a major intensification
of the hydrological cycle and led to lake eutrophication. ..."
