New techniques for old bones: Morphometric and diffeomorphometric analysis of the bony labyrinth of the Reilingen and Ehringsdorf Neandertals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.

Paleopathology of a putative colossosaurian caudal vertebra (Neosauropoda: Titanosauria) from the Presidente Prudente Formation, Brazil

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

Poseidon's Sanctuary at Samikon—The Discovery of an Ancient Temple Through an Integrated Geophysical and Geoarchaeological Survey Approach for Lagoonal and Swampy Environments

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Below the classical fortress of Samikon at the coast of the western Peloponnese, ancient writer Strabo mentioned a sanctuary of Poseidon which served as the centre of the religious association of the Triphylian cities. In this paper, we describe the discovery and investigation of a building structure by means of geophysical and ...

Sequence Stratigraphy of Middle Albian to Cenomanian sediments (Sarvak Formation) in Tang-e-Chenarbashi (southeast Ilam) and role of fossil fauna for recognition and interpretation of the depositional sequences [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2018
Middle Albian to Cenomanian strata of the Sarvak Formation indicate pelagic facies in Tang-e-Chenarbashi stratigraphic section. These strata deposited in five sequences of the third order and nine sequences of the fourth order.

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

Unsupervised hierarchical sequence stratigraphy framework of carbonate successions

open access: yesArtificial Intelligence in Geosciences
Performing the high-resolution stratigraphic analysis may be challenging and time-consuming if one has to work with large datasets. Moreover, sedimentary records have signals of different frequencies and intrinsic noise, resulting in a complex signature ...
