Accretionary Tectonics of the North American Cordillera [PDF]
, 1983 Continental geology stands on the threshold of a change that is likely to be as fundamental as plate-tectonic theory was for marine geology. Ongoing seismic-reflection investigations into the deep crustal structure of North America are verifying that ...

Late Jurassic Early Cretaceous
The sedimentary and structural development in the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous period in the Netherlands is largely governed by the Late Cimmerian rift phase and the subsequent post-rift. The rifting affected the Dutch Central Graben in the northern offshore first.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Osteohistological sampling on different bones of theropod dinosaur documents discrepant age record, growth, and metabolism. This could result unprecise paleobiological inferences if samplings are based on single bones. However, multi‐bone sampling can attenuate these discrepancies, helping to infer growth dynamics and physiology of these extinct ...

Response and Recovery of the Comanche Carbonate Platform Surrounding Multiple Cretaceous Oceanic Anoxic Events, Northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
, 2015 The ubiquity of carbonate platforms throughout the Cretaceous Period is recognized as a product of high eustatic sea-level and a distinct climatic optimum induced by rapid sea-floor spreading and elevated levels of atmospheric carbon-dioxide.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Last year, we challenged the view that large‐bodied theropod dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex resembled primates in cognition and behavior, a proposition made by Herculano‐Houzel in 2023. More recently, Jensen et al. have criticized our work on this topic, raising methodological and conceptual issues.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Belonostomus longirostrisis was named for an isolated jaw fragment from freshwater Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) sediments of the Dinosaur Park Formation of Alberta, Canada. Following the description of the Albertan species, numerous isolated cranial and postcranial elements have been collected from the Dinosaur Park Formation and assigned to B.

The early Cretaceous was cold but punctuated by warm snaps resulting from episodic volcanism
Communications Earth & EnvironmentThe Cretaceous is characterized as a greenhouse climate from elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations, transgressive seas, and temperate ecosystems at polar paleolatitudes.

An osteohistological analysis of Triceratops (Ornithischia: Ceratopsidae) cranial ornamentation
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Ceratopsids are among the most distinctive and well known extinct Cretaceous vertebrates, yet many details regarding the growth and composition of their cranial features are still not fully anatomically described or understood. In particular, striking cranial adornments such as the postorbital horns and parietal‐squamosal frill of Triceratops ...

Yankuang ceshi, 2014 Although there is poor outcrop in the area, the Daoxiang formation exposed in North Fujian has unique rock assemblage and metamorphism, and deformation characteristics show that the Daoxiang group does exist, and belongs to metamorphic rock of the ...
