Palaeoenvironmental signatures revealed from rare earth element (REE) compositions of vertebrate microremains of the Vesiku Bone Bed (Homerian, Wenlock), Saaremaa Island, Estonia [PDF]
Rare earth elements (REEs) have been analysed from fossil vertebrate microremains (thelodont scales) from the Vesiku Bone Bed, Saaremaa, Estonia, using in situ microsampling by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). Well-

Bipedal leaping Jurassic vertebrates in Southern Africa : proposed new ichnotaxon and inferred palaeoenvironment [PDF]
The Lower Jurassic Clarens Formation (Stormberg Group, Karoo Supergroup, Main Karoo basin) contains relatively common vertebrate trackways impressed into apparently soft to firm, fine sediment beds preserved within the succession.

Resolving the Tectonic Setting of South China in the Late Paleozoic
The tectonic setting of South China during the late Paleozoic is essential to understanding the geodynamics off the eastern margin of Pangea supercontinent due to its unique paleo‐position at the confluence of the Paleo‐Tethys and Panthalassic oceans ...

Environmental distribution of Bathonian (Middle Jurassic) neoselachians in southern England [PDF]
Within the Bathonian (Middle Jurassic) a wide range of depositional environments were present across Britain. Within this dominantly carbonate shelf setting, there is a general palaeoenvironmental transition from open marine shelf in the south of England,
