International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, 1997
This study presents a synthesis of the evidence for modern archaeological, and palaeontological bioerosion of vertebrate tissue. It describes the first evidence for the bioerosion of modern, archaeological and fossil bird bones. A new form of bone bioerosion, known as Hackett tunnels, is defined. The bioerosion of vertebrate tissue by cyanobacteria and

Bioerosion of Live Massive Corals and Branching Coral Rubble on Indonesian Coral Reefs
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2000 oai:generic.eprints.org:107The degree of bioerosion of live massive corals and rubble from branching corals were measured on nine reefs from two regions of Indonesia: the Java Sea and Ambon.

Bioerosion of Synthetic Sling Explants
ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering, 2017This study was performed to investigate the changes over time in polypropylene (PP) mesh explants from women with stress urinary incontinence originally treated with a midurethral PP sling. Following Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval, 10 PP explants removed for pain or obstructive symptoms between January and June 2016 were analyzed through ...

Borings and bioerosion in fossils
Geology Today, 1993Ancient marine organisms that excavated holes in shells and other calcium carbonate substrates on the sea bed have not been widely studied by palaeontologists. Together with scrape and scratch marks made by rasping grazers on shell surfaces, they constitute a group of hard–substrate trace fossils that have many modern equivalents.

Bioerosion, preparation and curation
Geological Curator, 2004The surfaces of fossils commonly preserve shallow-tier bioerosion traces that are of considerable use in palaeoenvironmental interpretation. However, they are often overlooked and are highly susceptible to destruction through mechanical preparation. In this note we encourage preparators and curators to familiarise themselves with these trace fossils ...

The role of burrowing sponges in bioerosion
Oecologia, 1975Among the large number of limestone-eroding organisms, sponges, mainly of the family Clinonidae are of special interest because of their efficient means of substratum penetration by cellular etching and because they release characteristically shaped calcium carbonate chips which can be detected in the mud-size fraction of many sediments.

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 1978
Abstract In order to test the usefulness of borings as indicators of palaeoenvironment a number of transects were sampled over a variety of reefs in Bermuda and an analysis was made of the borings and their inhabitants. The borings are described of 25 endolithic species, including sponges, a sea anemone, sipunculids, annelids, bivalves, a gastropod ...

Bioerosion and biogeomorphology
1992Abstract Bioerosion is a complex set of physical and chemical processes of rock removal, driven by the interrelationships between (1) ‘biological corrosion’, a solutional process (accounting for 10-30 per cent of total erosion) largely engineered by Cyanobacteria, and (2) ‘biological abrasion’, the removal of these micro-organisms and ...

Comment on 'Bioerosion, preparation and curation'
Geological Curator, 2005We welcome the recent note by Radley and Twitchett (2004) for bringing one of the more unloved groups of fossils sensu lato into the curatorial limelight. Invertebrate trace fossils in any form, but particularly shallow-tier bioerosion structures, may cause curatorial headaches, and we consider discussion of these problems important in placing them on ...
