T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

New evidence for the age of the Athol Formation (Middle Jurassic : Bajocian) in the Tusk-1 and Tusk-2 wells, offshore Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The co-occurrence of ammonites with palynomorphs in the Athol Formation of the Tusk-1 and Tusk-2 wells drilled in the offshore Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia confirms the Early Bajocian (Middle Jurassic) age of the Dissiliodinium caddaense ...

New craniodental materials of Falcarius utahensis (Theropoda: Therizinosauria) reveal patterns of intraspecific variation and cranial evolution in early coelurosaurians

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known

A relict stem salamander: Evidence from the Early Cretaceous of Siberia [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2016
The early evolution of salamanders, which are one of the three living groups of lissamphibians, is not well known. Both stem- and crown-group salamanders first appeared in the Middle Jurassic (Bathonian), but subsequently had different evolutionary ...

Regional geothermal aquifer architecture of the fluvial Lower Cretaceous Nieuwerkerk Formation – a palynological analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The primary challenge for efficient geothermal doublet design and deployment is the adequate prediction of the size, shape, lateral extent and thickness (or aquifer architecture) of aquifers.

The coelurosaur theropods of the Romualdo formation, early Cretaceous (Aptian) of Brazil: Santanaraptor placidus meets Mirischia asymmetrica

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

The First 40 Million Years of Planktonic Foraminifera

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
We provide a biochronology of Jurassic planktonic foramininfera, using first order linkage to ammonite and nannofossil stratigraphy and geochronology. This enigmatic and understudied group of microfossils occurred from middle Toarcian through Tithonian ...

The effects of the spreading of the Central Atlantic during the Middle Jurassic on dinosaur faunas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The spreading of the Central Atlantic is a complex series of events that include a ridge jump to the east and a ridge jump to the west at c. 170Ma and c. 162Ma respectively.

Late Jurassic Early Cretaceous

open access: yes
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.
