Its significantly inaccurate based on current knowledge; their placement of the Carnian-Norian boundary is ~10 million years too young, and the Ladinian-Carnian boundary is at least 8 million years too young. Moreover, this timescale was obsolete as soon as it was published. See papers by Muttoni et al. 2004 (GSA Bulletin), Furin et al. 2006 (Geology), Mundil et al. 2010 (GSL Special Publication), Olsen et al. 2011 (Earth Env. Sci. Trans. Royal Soc. Edinburgh), and Irmis et al. 2011 (EPSL).220myahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06403919493457640549noreply@blogger.com
