Reconstructing the Evolution of North American Gomphotheres (Mammalia, Proboscidea) through Craniomandibular Characters [PDF]
The family Gomphotheriidae is the “waste basket” of proboscidean groups. Widely accepted as paraphyletic, gomphotheres are characterized by bunolophodont molars and extreme morphological variability.

Miocene paleoenvironmental reconstitution of Chelas (Portugal) using stable isotopes from the enamel of molars from a proboscidean and associated palynomorphs [PDF]
Paleoclimate reconstruction is essential for understanding the Earth's climate system, its dynamics, and the drivers of climate change. By examining past climate variability, it provides critical context for interpreting present-day climate trends and ...
