Accretionary Tectonics of the North American Cordillera [PDF]
, 1983 Continental geology stands on the threshold of a change that is likely to be as fundamental as plate-tectonic theory was for marine geology. Ongoing seismic-reflection investigations into the deep crustal structure of North America are verifying that ...

Broad-Scale Patterns of Late Jurassic Dinosaur Paleoecology
PLoS ONE, 2010 There have been numerous studies on dinosaur biogeographic distribution patterns. However, these distribution data have not yet been applied to ecological questions. Ecological studies of dinosaurs have tended to focus on reconstructing individual taxa, usually through comparisons to modern analogs.

The Jurassic of Denmark and Greenland: Triassic and Jurassic transtension along part of the Sorgenfrei–Tornquist Zone in the Danish Kattegat [PDF]
Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2003 In the Kattegat area, Denmark, the Sorgenfrei–Tornquist Zone, an old crustal weakness zone, was repeatedly reactivated during Triassic, Jurassic and Early Cretaceous times with dextral transtensional movements along the major boundary faults.

Pangean (Late Carboniferous–Middle Jurassic) paleoenvironment and lithofacies
Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2000 Abstract Six time interval maps were constructed that depict the plate tectonic configuration, paleogeography and lithofacies for Pangea from the Late Carboniferous through the Middle Jurassic. Generally, the individual maps illustrate the conditions present during the maximum marine transgressions of higher frequency cyclicity within the Absaroka ...

A uniform isotopic and chemical signature of dust exported from Patagonia: Rock sources and occurrence in southern environments [PDF]
, 2007 Patagonia is considered to be the most important source of dust from South America that is deposited in surrounding areas, and we present here a systematic Sr and Nd isotopic study of sediment currently being exported.

Late Jurassic fishes from Longing Gap, Antarctic Peninsula
Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2004 Abstract Few records of Late Jurassic fishes have been reported previously from Antarctica. They include an indeterminate teleost from the Ameghino (Nordenskjold) Formation at Longing Gap and two incomplete aspidorhynchiforms from James Ross Island, all of presumed Late Jurassic age. New fish material recently recovered in the Upper Jurassic of Longing

A Piranha-like Pycnodontiform Fish from the Late Jurassic [PDF]
Current Biology, 2018 Pycnodontiformes are an extinct order of ray-finned fishes from the Triassic to Eocene [1, 2], with a characteristic crushing dentition reflecting a highly specialized diet [3]. However, our discovery of a new pycnodontiform from the Late Jurassic (ca.
