Prospalax priscus jaw from the site of Węże 2 (southern Poland, Pliocene)

Geologija, 2023
The ecology and adaptations of the Anomalomyidae (Muroidea) have been long debated in the scientific literature. A jaw belonging to Prospalax priscus (Anomalomyidae) was found at the Late Pliocene site of Węże 2 in southern Poland.

On the importance of moisture conveyor belts from the tropical eastern Pacific for wetter conditions in the Atacama Desert during the mid-Pliocene [PDF]

Climate of the Past, 2023
Geomorphic and sedimentologic data indicate that the climate of today's hyper-arid Atacama Desert (northern Chile) was more humid during the mid-Pliocene to Late Pliocene.

Large-scale features of Pliocene climate: results from the Pliocene Model Intercomparison Project [PDF]

, 2013
Climate and environments of the mid-Pliocene warm period (3.264 to 3.025 Ma) have been extensively studied. Whilst numerical models have shed light on the nature of climate at the time, uncertainties in their predictions have not been systematically ...

Late Pliocene lakes and soils: a data-model comparison for the analysis of climate feedbacks in a warmer world [PDF]

, 2013
Based on a synthesis of geological data we have reconstructed the global distribution of Late Pliocene soils and lakes which are then used as boundary conditions in a series of model experiments using the Hadley Centre General Circulation Model (HadCM3 ...

The Invertebrate Life of New Zealand: A Phylogeographic Approach

Insects, 2011
Phylogeography contributes to our knowledge of regional biotas by integrating spatial and genetic information. In New Zealand, comprising two main islands and hundreds of smaller ones, phylogeography has transformed the way we view our biology and ...
