摘要	Many of the vertebrate fossils have been found in recent years in Sihetun, western Liaoning, China, including Confuciusornis, Liaoningornis, as well as "feathered" theropod dinosaurs, etc. The layers of well-preserved vertebrate fossils indicate mass mortalities and rapid burial of the animal bodies in the lacustrine environment, which are coexisting with the intermediate-acidic tuffs (or ashes) in the field. This paper determined the volatile contents of inclusions in phenocrysts and matrix glasses, applying the method of electron microprobe analysis, from the tuffs and ashes coexisting with four typical fossil layers of the well-preserved vertebrates. The result shows that their contents of volatile emitted are higher than those erupted from other volcanoes with same compositions worldwide and the compositions of volatiles released into atmosphere are different, corresponding to the different fossils layers in this area. The authors thought that the mass mortality events in west Liaoning are mainly due to the significant effect of the volatiles and the volcanic dust on climate at that time.; Many of the vertebrate fossils have been found in recent years in Sihetun, western Liaoning, China, including Confuciusornis, Liaoningornis, as well as "feathered" theropod dinosaurs, etc. The layers of well-preserved vertebrate fossils indicate mass mortalities and rapid burial of the animal bodies in the lacustrine environment, which are coexisting with the intermediate-acidic tuffs (or ashes) in the field.
