Ordovician–Silurian true polar wander as a mechanism for severe glaciation and mass extinction

The Ordovician–Silurian transition experienced severe, but enigmatic, glaciation, as well as a paradoxical combination of mass extinction and species origination. Here we report a large and fast true polar wander (TPW) event that occurred 450–440 million years ago based on palaeomagnetic data from S...
