Several occurrences of osteomyelitis in dinosaurs from a site in the Bauru Group, Cretaceous of Southeast Brazil

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the occurrence of osteomyelitis in non‐avian dinosaurs, focusing on the Ibirá locality, a site with a high incidence of this pathological condition. We analyzed six new osteopathic sauropod specimens from the Upper Cretaceous of Brazil.

The revision of baphetids from the Middle Pennsylvanian of the Czech Republic: Morphology, ontogeny, palaeoecology, and the reassessment of the phylogeny of Baphetoidea

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The baphetoids represent a clade of the Carboniferous stem‐tetrapods (Middle Mississippian—Middle Pennsylvanian) with a characteristic extension of the orbits into antorbital vacuities, which formed keyhole‐shaped openings on the skull. The more derived baphetids were crocodile‐like piscivores frequently occurring in coal‐bearing lacustrine ...

Ichnological discrimination of hemipelagic‐dominated slope versus basin‐floor mudstones: Insights from early Viséan successions of a distally steepened ramp, northern Iran

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
This study integrates sedimentological and ichnological data to reveal the depositional processes and environmental conditions of deep‐water muddy gravity flows in the Mobarak Formation. It highlights distinct ichnocoenoses and bioturbation patterns, offering insights into basin‐floor versus slope mudstones and their implications for hydrocarbon ...

Precise occlusion and trophic niche differentiation indicate specialized feeding in Early Devonian jawed vertebrates

open access: yesFACETS, 2017
Acanthodians may represent a paraphyletic assemblage of stem chondrichthyans, stem osteichthyans, stem gnathostomes, or some combination of the three. One of the difficulties in determining the phylogenetic affinities of this group of mostly small, spiny

Estimating Late 19th Century Hydrology in the Greater Everglades Ecosystem: An Integration of Paleoecologic Data and Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
Determining hydrologic conditions prior to instrumental records is a challenge for restoration of freshwater ecosystems worldwide. Paleoecologic data provide this information on past conditions and when these data are used to adjust hydrologic models ...

Late Glacial development of lakes and wetland vegetation in a dune area in Central Poland

open access: yesActa Palaeobotanica, 2023
This study investigated the history of the development of six, paleo-lakes, which are at present filled with sediments, in a dune area in Central Poland, based on multiproxy paleoecological analyses and accelerator mass spectrometry radiocarbon dating ...

Carbonate sedimentology: An evolved discipline

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Although admired and examined since antiquity, carbonate sediment and rock research really began with Charles Darwin who, during a discovery phase, studied, documented and interpreted their nature in the mid‐19th century. The modern discipline, however, really began after World War II and evolved in two distinct phases.
