Microbial mats in dinosaur ichnocoenoses
Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Until now, the significance of microbial mats in preservation of dinosaur tracks and in reconstructing the palaeoenvironment in which dinosaurs roamed was rarely studied. Dinosaur tracks are commonly found close to ancient aquatic bodies where moist sediment had once allowed footstep registration.

Novel insight into the origin of the growth dynamics of sauropod dinosaurs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Sauropod dinosaurs include the largest terrestrial animals and are considered to have uninterrupted rapid rates of growth, which differs from their more basal relatives, which have a slower cyclical growth.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We introduce ENHYDROSS, a new mechanistic model that uses optimal swimming speed and minimum cost of transport to estimate maximum dispersal distances and durations for vertebrates, enabling assessment of long‐distance oceanic dispersal potential. Applied to a range of extant and extinct animals, the model's estimates generally align with observed data;

Tracking dinosaurs in Scotland [PDF]
, 2005 <p>Dinosaurs, the Loch Ness Monster not included, are a rarity in Scotland. Although dinosaurs have been known of in England and elsewhere in the world for over 300 years, it was only in the last 23 years that dinosaurs began to appear in Scotland.

Additional sauropod dinosaur material from the Callovian Oxford Clay Formation, Peterborough, UK: evidence for higher sauropod diversity [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Four isolated sauropod axial elements from the Oxford Clay Formation (Callovian, Middle Jurassic) of Peterborough, UK, are described. Two associated posterior dorsal vertebrae show a dorsoventrally elongated centrum and short neural arch, and nutrient or

The effects of the spreading of the Central Atlantic during the Middle Jurassic on dinosaur faunas [PDF]
, 2012 The spreading of the Central Atlantic is a complex series of events that include a ridge jump to the east and a ridge jump to the west at c. 170Ma and c. 162Ma respectively.

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 3, Page 674-699, March 2026.Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

, 2008 Every once in a while it’s good to remember that no matter how big you end up, everybody starts out small. Jack McIntosh came through the OMNH a few years ago and identified all of our sauropod material. There are babies of both <em> Camarasaurus </em> and <em> Apatosaurus </em> from this quarry.

Catalysts for change: Museum gardens in a planetary emergency
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 401-410, March 2026.Natural history museums are often seen as places with indoor galleries full of dry‐dusty specimens, usually of animals. But if they have gardens associated with them, museums can use living plants to create narratives that link outside spaces to inside galleries, bringing to life the challenges facing biodiversity.
