The relative roles of CO2 and palaeogeography in determining Late Miocene climate: results from a terrestrial model-data comparison [PDF]

, 2012
The Late Miocene (∼11.6–5.3 Ma) palaeorecord provides evidence for a warmer and wetter climate than that of today and there is uncertainty in the palaeo-CO2 record of at least 150 ppmv.

A new species of Peckoltia (Siluriformes, Loricariidae) from the rapids of the Rio Tocantins‐Araguaia basin, Brazil

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Here, we describe a new species of Peckoltia (Loricariidae; Hypostominae) from the rapids of the Rio Tocantins‐Araguaia basin, previously identified as Peckoltia vittata, using an integrative taxonomy approach. The new species is distinguished from congeners by ventral region presenting diffuse stripes on surface, not presenting spots or ...

Middle Miocene Ostracoda from Northern Iraq

, 1988
Four new ostracod species are described and figured from the lower Pars Formation (M. Miocene) of Northern Iraq. These ostracods show strong affinities with those of the adjacent areas.

Fit for purpose? Analysis of the relationship between skull, beak shape and feeding ecology in Psittaciformes

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Psittaciformes exhibit high levels of morphological diversity, particularly in skull and beak structure, previously linked to diet and body size. Although there were some levels of significance between diet and beak shape, body mass was a much stronger co‐variate. Diet is not determining beak shape within the clade.

First occurrences of Trionychidae (Testudines, Cryptodira) from the Miocene of Poland: Detailed cranial anatomy and biogeographic implications

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Fossil finds from three Middle Miocene sites in Poland reveal the northernmost known presence of trionychid turtles in Europe, tentatively identified as Trionyx cf. vindobonensis, suggesting a warmer climate that supported thermophilic species in Central Europe during this period. Abstract Modern trionychids (Testudines, Cryptodira) have a pan‐tropical

Depositional Facies, Sequence Stratigraphy, and Diagenesis of Lower Cretaceous Carbonate Reservoir, Southern Iraq: Implications for Petroleum Exploration

Journal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Lower Cretaceous Yamama Formation of southern Iraq represents a key carbonate reservoir within Iraq and the Middle East, yet its complex depositional facies architecture and diagenetic alterations present challenges for predicting reservoir quality.
