The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Megantereon was a widespread saber‐toothed felid from the Pliocene and Pleistocene of the Old World and North America, but its rarity in the fossil record makes it complicated to restore its life appearance. Lack of complete specimens makes it necessary to combine information from fossils of different individuals to reconstruct their facial ...

The local health impacts of natural resource booms
Health Economics, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 462-500, February 2023., 2023 Abstract This paper uses novel micro‐data on natural resources and administrative health data in Brazil to study how economic booms in minerals affect health at birth. By implementing a reduced‐form estimation of shift‐share research designs, the identification strategy relies on the exogeneity of global commodity prices to municipality‐specific health

On the Correct Use of Statistical Tests: Reply to "Lies, damned lies and statistics (in Geology)" [PDF]
Eos Transactions AGU, Vol. 92, No. 8, page 64, 22 February 2011, 2010 In a Forum published in EOS Transactions AGU (2009) entitled "Lies, damned lies and statistics (in Geology)", Vermeesch (2009) claims that "statistical significant is not the same as geological significant", in other words, statistical tests may be misleading. In complete contradiction, we affirm that statistical tests are always informative. We detail

Is cranial anatomy indicative of fossoriality? A case study of the mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Determining the ecology of fossil species presents considerable challenges due to the often fragmentary preservation of specimens. The mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui from the Jurassic of China is known only from the cranium and mandible but may have had a fossorial lifestyle.

On the Spaces and Dimensions of Geographical Systems [PDF]
Journal of Geography and Geology, 2012, 4(1): 118-135, 2011 To remove the confusion of concepts about different sorts of geographical space and dimension, a new framework of space theory is proposed in this paper. Based on three sets of fractal dimensions, the geographical space is divided into three types: real space (R-space), phase space (P-space), and order space (O-space).

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Change Detection Of Seafloor Topography By Modeling Multitemporal Multibeam Echosounder Measurements [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2014 The term "topography" implies the study of numerous landforms that exist on or below the Earth and a detailed knowledge of topography is required to understand the most Earth processes.
