Item Post-glacial permian debris flow deposits and their paleoclimatic implications (Mariana Pimentel paleovalley, southern Paraná Basin).(2020) Coitinho, Júlia dos Reis; Kern, Henrique Parisi; Cagliari, Joice; Lavina, Ernesto Luiz Correa; Girelli, Tiago Jonatan; Tedesco, Julia; Lana, Cristiano de Carvalho; Silveira, Ariane Santos daThe end of the Late Paleozoic Ice Age was followed by a global warming climate. This climate transition is characterized by, beyond other aspects, a decrease in the intensity of physical weathering, characteristic of arid conditions, and an increase in the intensity of chemical weathering. In the southern Parana ´ Basin, the post-glacial onset and intense record of “Pedra-Areia” diamictite within the Mariana Pimentel paleovalley was likely controlled by warming climate conditions and mark a period of intense rainfall and slope instability. To test this hypothesis, we have performed facies and sequence stratigraphy analysis on cores located within the Mariana Pimentel paleovalley, and U–Pb-Hf investigations to acquire sediment provenance information. Diamictite deposits were produced by debris flow processes, which transported regolith from the valley wall to the bottom, eroding and incorporating mud and peat when reaching the bottom of the valley. The local source of sediment is explained by the sedimentological characteristics of the diamictite and zircon provenance studies. These deposits are preserved within the transgressive system tract and the abundant deposition was controlled by increasing temperature and humidity, and thus the increase in chemical weathering on the walls, forming the regolith. The development of more humid and warmer climatic conditions, contrasting with the cold and dry climate of the glacial period, was an important control over diamictite deposition.
