The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Evolution and identity of synapsid carpal bones [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2020 To date there is little information on carpal bone homology in late Palaeozoic and Mesozoic Synapsida. Crucial to the understanding of homology in synapsid carpal elements is the fact that different nomenclatures are used for the carpals of non ...

Perinatal specimens of Maiasaura from the Upper Cretaceous of Montana (USA): insights into the early ontogeny of saurolophine hadrosaurid dinosaurs [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Perinatal specimens of hadrosaurids discovered in the late 1970’s by field crews from Princeton University were significant in providing evidence of the early ontogenetic stages in North American dinosaurs.

On the Mesozoic Ionian Basin [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 2001 SUMMARY New seismic reflection profiles of the Italian deep crust project CROP provide new insights on the structure of the Ionian sea. In spite of the Apennines and Hellenides Neogene subduction zones, two conjugate passive continental margins are preserved at the margins of the Ionian sea, along the Malta escarpment to the southwest and the Apulian ...

An early Eocene pan-gekkotan from France could represent an extra squamate group that survived the K/Pg extinction [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2023 In this paper we describe a new lizard from the early Eocene of the Cos locality in the Quercy region (near the Caylus village, Southwest France). The age of the Cos deposit has been proposed as the MP 10–11 interval, close to the transition of the ...
