Instead, they favor changes in surface-water salinity in order to account for the observed shifts in δ18O of +1‰ to +1.5‰. Gong and Xu do not provide any data that may support higher surface-water salinity during the late Frasnian, but speculate on hypersalinity, red tides, and anoxia as potential causes of the Frasnian-Famennian extinction event. To our understanding, a change in surface-water salinity is not plausible. The studied sections were situated...
