Devonian stratigraphy in Estonia: current state and problems [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2012 An updated version of the Devonian stratigraphical chart of Estonia with comments is presented. Estonian regional stratigraphical units are correlated with the standard conodont zonation and miospore zonation, used in the western part of the East ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.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.

The life and work of Ernest Sydney Keeping
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract This article reviews the life and contributions of Ernest S. Keeping (1895–1984), a British‐born physicist who became a mathematics professor at the University of Alberta in 1929. He played a pivotal role in shaping the university's Mathematics Department, serving as its head from 1954 to 1961, and continuing to teach until 1970, nine years ...

Givetian (Middle Devonian) cladoxylopsid 'ferns' from Orkney, northern Scotland [PDF]
, 2006 Two large fossil plants are described from the Givetian (Middle Devonian) Eday Flags, South Ronaldsay, Orkney Isles, northern Scotland. Fossils with branches joined to stems of this age are rare.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The dentigerous jawbones of a 423‐million‐year‐old stem chondrichthyan (ischnacanthid acanthodian) carry a characteristic combination of multi‐row non‐shedding white teeth with brownish overgrowing denticles. The color distinction makes it a good model for observing the interaction between two odontode lineages, but the nature of ...

The Economic Geology of The Iowa Devonian [PDF]
, 1970 The Devonian System, in Iowa, is exposed in a belt about 50 miles wide extending along a line from Mason City to Muscatine. With the exception of the Shell Rock Formation the Upper Devonian is essentially elastic, dominantly shale. The Middle Devonian is

Geological Journal, EarlyView.The composition of intrusive rocks suggests that the magma was likely generated in a subduction‐related setting. The arc crustal thickness in the Phnom Sro Ngam and Halo Prospects was probably < 40 km during emplacement. Zircon U–Pb age range indicates a correlation with Loei Fold Belt magmatic activity.

Geological Journal, EarlyView.In this study, we re‐examine the depositional architecture of the Erfoud limestone in Morocco. Introducing new biostratigraphic constraints from chitinozoan assemblages, we show that Katian to Hirnantian bryozoan‐pelmatozoan meadows reflect flooding events linked to a series of interglacial transgressions known to have occurred immediately prior to the

Reservoir characterization and potential of the old red sandstone around the inner moray firth, NE Scotland [PDF]
, 1993 Old Red Sandstone deposition in North East Scotland occurred during Devonian times within the Orcadian Basin, a northeast-southwest elongated structure. The basin formed in an extensional tectonic regime that resulted from gravitational collapse of over ...
