Large Evaporite Provinces: dominated by Solar or geothermal energy ?

The vertical axis focuses on the specific salt-forming geological epoch and the corresponding salt volume. The vertical axis consists of a total of 31 rows and the horizontal axis consists of 6 columns.The fourth schedule is the volume statistics of reconstructed evaporites of different geologic ages in Figure 1A of the article, which specifically corresponds to the blue columns in Figure 1A. The horizontal axis mainly includes the age of salt formation, the volume of extant salt on land, the volume of salt on the seafloor, the volume of recirculated salt, the volume of denuded salt, and the volume of reconstructed salt.

The vertical axis mainly includes the salt volume data corresponding to each geological epoch. The lower part of the table shows the references and specific salt volume calculation methods.The fifth schedule is a statistical table of the data of LEPs, which specifically corresponds to the green bars in Figure 1A in the article. The horizontal axis is mainly the serial number, basin name, salt-forming age, salt volume, and volume of LEPs.

The vertical axis is the specific salt volume corresponding to each geological epoch.The sixth schedule is the statistical table of the data of LIPs, which specifically corresponds to the red bars and purple curves in Figure 1B in the article. The horizontal axis of this table consists mainly of serial number, age, name of LIPs, type, location, area, volume, and reference. The vertical axis mainly consists of specific information on the LIPs corresponding to different geological ages and the main references.
