variability during the late Triassic: Re-assessing the role of orbital
forcing in the deposition of playa sediments in the Germanic Basin. In PDF,
Sedimentology, 67.
See also
here.
"... 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. ..."
