Carbon isotope correlation of Steinbruch Schmidt section with other F–F records (H-32, CG-1, Section C, Sinsin, Fuhe, and Kowala, see6) obtained by visually correlating distinct features in carbon isotope geochemistry (blue ties and dotted arrows). These tie points are accepted only if they respect the biostratigraphic constraints (underlined by grey area) and magnetic susceptibility correlations (Fig. 4, red lines). The black numbers are ages assigned to each tie-point, according to the existing astrochronologic framework of Section C and Kowala23,55. Abbreviations as in Fig. 4.
