Cretaceous oceanic anoxic events (OAEs) have been studied in detail during the last decades. OAE2 is of particular interest as it reflects one of the largest perturbations of the global carbon cycle in the Mesozoic. It is characterised by a widespread deposition of organic rich sediments which is re...
