Laurasian Seaway History During the Early Jurassic From Quantitative Mineralogy and Detrital Zircon Dating

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The Laurasian Seaway comprises a N‐S oriented trans‐Pangaean corridor linking Tethys to the Boreal Sea during the Jurassic, and direction of water flow has been the subject of considerable debate. The Llanbedr (Mochras Farm) borehole, Cardigan Bay Basin, Wales, is a uniquely informative record that comprises an expanded deep‐marine silty ...

Long‐Term Deformation in the Alpine‐Provence Foreland Constrained by In Situ Calcite U‐Pb Dating

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The evolution of the Alpine‐Provence foreland is characterized by multiple deformation phases since the Mesozoic, representing successive compressional and extensional episodes. The precise timing and spatial evolution of these deformation phases remain poorly constrained due to the lack of absolute geochronological data. Here, we present U–Pb

A Bayesian classification model to reconstruct lifetime movement patterns of riverine fish using environmental tracers

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 1851-1866, June 2026.
Abstract Environmental tracers, including both elemental concentrations and isotope ratios, are widely used to reconstruct the movement patterns of animals throughout landscapes. The methodology involves creating a map that describes the distribution of the environmental tracer across the landscape, an isoscape and then matching the values of the same ...

Hindlimb functional morphology and locomotor biomechanics of the small Late Triassic pseudosuchian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum (Archosauria: Gracilisuchidae)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 1026-1063, June 2026.
A three‐dimensional biomechanical model of the musculoskeletal system is used to analyse the potential locomotor functions of the small (~1 kg) Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum. The study finds that, potentially like the ancestral archosaur, this taxon was probably quadrupedal, plantigrade and neither strongly sprawling ...

Microbial mats in dinosaur ichnocoenoses

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1099-1120, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Until now, the significance of microbial mats in preservation of dinosaur tracks and in reconstructing the palaeoenvironment in which dinosaurs roamed was rarely studied. Dinosaur tracks are commonly found close to ancient aquatic bodies where moist sediment had once allowed footstep registration.

Barium Isotopes Indicate Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity of Marine Primary Productivity During the Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract The Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T‐OAE, ∼183 Ma) was characterized by globally enhanced organic‐carbon burial and a negative carbon‐isotope excursion (N‐CIE). However, the role of marine productivity at this time, and its spatiotemporal variability, is unclear.
