Abstract Sauropod dinosaurs achieved unprecedented terrestrial gigantism, raising questions about the biomechanical limits of bone under extreme gravitational loads. We estimated static gravitational pressures (Pg) on appendicular cortical bone in neosauropods, including diplodocoids, brachiosaurids, and titanosaurs.

Ichnology of the Rhätsandstein in the Exter Formation (Triassic), Germany
Trace fossils from the Rhätsandstein of southern Germany record repeated colonization of high‐energy shallow‐marine substrates before the Triassic–Jurassic transition. The assemblage reflects environmental and preservational controls on ichnodiversity.

The sedimentary basins in the Continental Rift of Southeastern Brazil (CRSB) provide an opportunity for ichnological analyses due to its well-known facies relationships and paleoenvironmental interpretations. This study reports invertebrate trace fossils

Spatial and Seasonal Studies of Sedimentological and Neoichnological Characteristics from Mangrove areas of Karachi, Pakistan [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to appraise the physicochemical properties of mangrove sediments and their influence on neoichnological properties produced by different crab species from Korangi Creek (S1) and Sandspit backwater areas (S2 and S3), Karachi ...

ABSTRACT Seismic‐scale features such as deeply incised submarine valleys and mounded drifts together with ichnological features indicative of discontinuous sedimentation and erosional episodes have recently been documented from the Upper Cretaceous chalk in the southern Baltic Sea area.

There are different criteria that are usually analysed independently before identifying a new trace fossil, such as morphological regularity, completeness, dispersion, recurrence and complexity, surface morphology, and context.

Trace fossils may be of crucial importance for palaeoenvironmental reconstructions, which is demonstrated by example of new ichnological finds in Mountainous Adygeya.

Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...

In a galaxy far, far away... traces? : astrobiological potential of ichnology
Organism-substrate interactions and their products – individual traces and ichnofabrics – are important biosignatures on Earth as they represent direct evidence of biological behaviour.
