The robustness of some Carboniferous fossil leaf venation networks to simulated damage [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Biological networks vary widely in their architecture and functional properties. Branching networks are good for transportation efficiency, while networks including loops offer good resistance to damage, and examples of these two topologies are found in ...

Early Pennsylvanian Lagerstätte reveals a diverse ecosystem on a subhumid, alluvial fan [PDF]

Nature Communications
Much of what we know about terrestrial life during the Carboniferous Period comes from Middle Pennsylvanian (~315–307 Mya) Coal Measures deposited in low-lying wetland environments1–5. We know relatively little about terrestrial ecosystems from the Early
