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

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
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 ...

Detrital zircon population of the Middle Triassic sediments in the eastern Sichuan Basin, South China and implications for tectonic setting

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The closure of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean lead to the collisional amalgamation of the various blocks including South China, Indochina and North China blocks, which results in the formation of the Qinling and Ailaoshan orogenic belts.

Vertical profiling of shock attenuation at the Rochechouart impact structure, France

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Rochechouart, south‐west France, is a complex impact structure. Here, we present the first report of shock barometry of quartz from what are likely parautochthonous basement units at depth, based on samples from the 2017 C.I.R.I.R drilling campaign. The crystallographic orientations of 725 sets of PDFs in 512 quartz grains in samples from four

A Study on the Sedimentary Environment and Facies Model of Triassic Carbonate Rocks in the Mangeshlak Basin

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Based on drilling, core and seismic data, combined with the regional tectonic sedimentary evolution background, the sedimentary environment of the Triassic carbonate rocks in the Mangeshlak Basin was studied.

Power increase of the power plant with single-circuit ORC plant with a wet medium, supplied with water in appropriate proportions from the Lower and Middle Triassic Reservoirs

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2018
This article presents an analysis of the efficiency of the ORC power plant with a wet circulating medium. The power plant is supplied from two heat sources, which are geothermal water streams obtained from the Lower Triassic and Middle Triassic ...

Fascinating single‐cell red algae: models for evolution and adaptation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The unicellular red algae, Cyanidiophyceae, that diverged early during Archaeplastida (algal and plant) evolution, occupy a variety of extreme habitats that are inhospitable for most other eukaryotes. With the use of modern genomics and genetics methods, Cyanidiophyceae show a remarkable taxonomic diversity, share haplodiplophasic life cycles ...

The Mesozoic megafossil genus Linguifolium Arber 1917

open access: yesActa Palaeobotanica, 2015
The plant megafossil genus Linguifolium Arber 1917 is chiefly known from the Middle and Upper Triassic of Gondwana. The range of Linguifolium extended beyond Gondwana by the Late Triassic, persisting there through the earliest Jurassic (Hettangian).

MISS diversity from saline lakes of Brazilian Pantanal: Origin, potential of preservation and comparison with examples of the Ediacaran‐Cambrian shallow depositional settings

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of the largest wetlands on Earth, the Brazilian Pantanal contains roughly 10 000 natural lakes, about 1000 of which are hypersaline. In these environmentally stressful settings, animal life struggles to survive, while cyanobacteria form extensive mats.

Carbon cycle perturbations and environmental change of the middle permian and Late Triassic Paleo-Antarctic circle

open access: yesScientific Reports
During the middle Permian through the Triassic, Tasmania moved from paleo-latitudes of 78° to 69°S, wedged between Antarctica and Australia, within the paleo-South polar circle.
