An osteohistological analysis of Triceratops (Ornithischia: Ceratopsidae) cranial ornamentation
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 ...

Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

Abstract Tyrannosaurus is viewed as a model organism in vertebrate paleontology, with numerous studies analyzing its feeding biomechanics. Nonetheless, the evolution of this feeding performance has been under‐addressed in Tyrannosauroidea, especially in basal tyrannosauroids. Here we used muscle‐force reconstruction and finite element analysis (FEA) to

3D Heterogeneous Geological Model of Natural Gas Hydrates in Shenhu Area, South China Sea
Natural gas hydrates, as a novel clean energy resource, have attracted widespread attention because of their highly complex reservoir properties, fluid distribution, and phase transitions. In particular, the fluid–solid interactions among hydrates,

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy
Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.

Three-Dimensional Modeling of Tidal Delta Reservoirs Based on Sedimentary Dynamics Simulations
To increase the reliability of three-dimensional (3D) geological models in areas characterized by sparse well data and poor seismic quality, a sedimentary dynamics simulation was conducted on the J7 tidal delta sedimentary reservoir in the Y gas field ...

Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

The impact of multi-cycle water invasion on underground gas storages and its controlling factors
Underground gas storage (UGS) facilities are essential for supply security and peak-shaving in natural gas systems, yet their sustainability is limited by an incomplete understanding of water invasion.
