A methodology of theropod print replication utilising the pedal reconstruction of Australovenator and a simulated paleo-sediment [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Distinguishing the difference between theropod and ornithopod footprints has proved a difficult task due to their similarities. Herein our aim was to produce a method where a skeleton could be more closely matched to actual fossilised footprints.

On Dinosaur Reconstruction: Posture of Dinosaurs
Open Journal of Geology, 2021 Dinosaurs due to their diverse species and peculiar forms have drawn the interest of both artists and scientists. One way to unlock the unknown life of dinosaurs is to reconstruct dinosaurs through drawings, computer animations or sculptures. Following the Introduction on “Dinosaur Reconstruction” by the present authors, where important Paleontological

The extinction of the dinosaurs [PDF]
Biological Reviews, 2014 ABSTRACTNon‐avian dinosaurs went extinct 66 million years ago, geologically coincident with the impact of a large bolide (comet or asteroid) during an interval of massive volcanic eruptions and changes in temperature and sea level. There has long been fervent debate about how these events affected dinosaurs.
