Love in the Eocene

open access: yesEmic
My submission showcases the research I've gathered while working in the Paleobotany sector of Florida's Natural History Museum. A key aspect of my work includes imaging fossils from the Eocene period, which date back millions of years. This fossil fragment, resembling a heart, symbolizes the enduring nature of love through Earth's history.

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 ...

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

LGM glaciation in the northern Dinaric Mountains, Slovenia: new insights from terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide dating and Parallel Ice Sheet Model simulation

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The Dinaric Mountains are a mountain range stretching NW–SE from the Alps to the Albanides–Hellenides in central Europe. The highest parts were occupied by small ice fields and/or valley glaciers during the Quaternary cold periods, while even today some small glaciers still exist in topoclimatically favourable areas.

Unravelling the phylogeny of armadillos and their kin (Mammalia, Xenarthra, Cingulata) combining morphological, molecular, and stratigraphic data

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Cingulata, a major lineage of Xenarthra, comprises extinct and extant armoured placental mammals that diversified throughout the Cenozoic. Despite extensive study, phylogenetic hypotheses based on morphological and molecular data remain incongruent, and no total evidence analysis has been conducted. Here, we integrate the largest morphological

Amber deposits of Ukraine and prospects of their development

open access: yesМінеральні ресурси України, 2017
Geological conditions for formation and territorial distribution of amber deposits in Ukraine have been analyzed. Amber deposits for jewelry production are connected with the Baltic-Dnieper Subprovince within the Ukrainian part of which two amber-bearing

Preference‐performance relationship in the thistle tortoise beetle: Implications for its realised host range

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
There was a positive relationship between adult preference and larval performance. However, the strength of the relationship ranged from weak to strong depending on the measure of adult preference. The adult beetle showed substantial flexibility in host plant selection and equal performance across most thistle hosts.

Neo-Eocene

open access: yes, 2012
Back in the mid-1960s, I was a feral sort of a child who loved scampering around construc-tion sites, climbing the huge, grey piles of excavated shale that were popping up all over my rapidly developing Toronto suburb. I might have been six or so when I first really noticed the slabs of muddy smelling rock often contained the imprints of scallop ...

Updating the forelimb anatomy of the domestic cat (Felis catus, Felidae) based on evolutionary inferences of its muscles and nerves I: Shoulder and brachium

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this study, we provide a detailed description of the shoulder and brachium muscles and the brachial plexus of the domestic cat (Felis catus). We identified muscular variants (articularis humeri, coracobrachialis longus, biceps brachii caput breve), clarified the independence of the anconeus medialis muscle from the triceps brachii muscle, and ...

Computed tomography reveals the endocranial anatomy of Crocodylia: Implications for phylogenetic relationships and ecomorphological convergence across Crocodylomorpha

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The evaluation of the endocranial anatomy of 43 crocodylian species reveals several differences, including variation in the curvature of the encephalic endocast, the size of the endosseous labyrinth and paratympanic sinuses, and the presence of additional snout sinuses.
