It synthesises results from different disciplines into a coherent unifying model. A simple mechanism is formulated which causally relates changes in geophysical phenomena-reversals in the Earth's magnetic field, superchrons where this cycle is suspended for long periods, polar ice variations and superplume volcanism, which gives rise to flood basalts-with astrophysical drivers from impacts and solar system penetration of interstellar gas clouds. This interrelated sequence in turn gives rise to the dramatic extinction events at the Cretaceous/Tertiary and Permian/Triassic boundaries and produces signatures associated with both cataclysmic and gradual extinctions. The question of geological versus astrophysical mechanisms for extinction are argued to be resolved into a coupled mechanism which is consistent with geological and palaeontological data so far known., 8, KJ00003971691, 論文, Artcle}, pages = {69--80}, title = {The Spiral Arms, Superplumes and a Unified Model of Mass Extinctions}, volume = {20}, year = {2004}, yomi = {ヤブシタ, シン} }
