Revision of the Early Miocene Hyracoidea (Mammalia) of East Africa

open access: yesComptes Rendus Palevol, 2004
Abstract Three genera of hyracoids were recorded from the Early Miocene of East Africa by Whitworth [18], but there has been considerable divergence of opinion about their status. Despite differences in cranial and dental morphology from Megalohyrax and Bunohyrax , Whitworth [18] classified two species in these genera that are recorded from much ...

Body Size Regulates Niche Overlap Asymmetry in the Subtropical Andes Rain Shadow: Isotopic Paleoecology of Oligocene South American Ungulates

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Neural Networks and Multivariate Analysis Based on Geochemical Data to Determine Stone Provenance From Ancient Calabrian Quarries (Southern Italy)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study shows an innovative approach to determine the origin of some Calabrian rocks quarried used in ancient times. Twenty‐five quarries, distributed in all the Calabrian provinces (Southern Italy), were studied and sampled. Ten samples were taken from each quarry, for a total of 250 samples.

Hidden in the Glaze: Cobalt Blue Decorations of Catalan Tin‐Glazed Ceramics From the 16th to 18th Centuries

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates technological evolution in 16th–18th century Catalan tin glazes and cobalt blue decorations. Analysis reveals three glaze strategies, highlighting shifts in tin oxide use and cobalt pigment composition. In the 16th century, tin oxide acted as an opacifier and cobalt pigments exhibit low arsenic content with CoO/NiO and ...

A major reorganization of Asian climate by the early Miocene [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2008
The global climate system experienced a series of drastic changes during the Cenozoic. In Asia, these include the climate transformation from a zonal pattern to a <i>monsoon-dominated pattern</i>, the disappearance of typical subtropical ...

Ceramic Raw Materials and Technological Choices in Iron Age Tyre (Lebanon): A Multiproxy, Fabric‐Based Approach

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a systematically integrated, multiproxy characterisation of Iron Age ceramics from Tyre (Lebanon). Ninety‐nine ceramic samples from stratified Iron Age contexts on Tyre's Acropolis, together with a small Late Bronze Age and raw‐clay reference set, were analysed using petrography, microfossil identification, X‐ray ...

The early Pliocene Titiokura Formation: stratigraphy of a thick, mixed carbonate-siliciclastic shelf succession in Hawke's Bay Basin, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This paper presents a systematic stratigraphic description of the architecture of the early Pliocene Titiokura Formation (emended) in the Te Waka and Maungaharuru Ranges of western Hawke's Bay, and presents a facies, sequence stratigraphic, and ...
