Ediacara biota flourished in oligotrophic and bacterially dominated marine environments across Baltica. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Middle-to-late Ediacaran (575-541 Ma) marine sedimentary rocks record the first appearance of macroscopic, multicellular body fossils, yet little is known about the environments and food sources that sustained this enigmatic fauna.

Trace fossils from Serpukhovian (Mississipian) sediments of Mospanivska geological structure (Dniper-Donetsk depression)

open access: yesВісник Харківського національного університету імені В.Н. Каразіна. Серія Геологія. Географія. Екологія
Introduction. Exhaustion of large oil and gas deposits leads to exploring smaller geological structures, from which large amount of core cannot be extracted.

Ecological succession of a Jurassic shallow-water ichthyosaur fall. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
After the discovery of whale fall communities in modern oceans, it has been hypothesized that during the Mesozoic the carcasses of marine reptiles created similar habitats supporting long-lived and specialized animal communities.

The Mass Assembly of Fossil Groups of Galaxies in the Millennium Simulation

open access: yes, 2007
The evolution of present-day fossil galaxy groups is studied in the Millennium Simulation. Using the corresponding Millennium gas simulation and semi-analytic galaxy catalogues, we select fossil groups at redshift zero according to the conventional ...

Microborings in mid Cretaceous fish teeth [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Fish teeth and other remains from the British Cretaceous contain abundant evidence for post-mortem colonization by endolithic organisms. The borings are here recognised as occurring in three morphotypes, including a flask-shaped form not previously ...

Trace Element Concentrations Associated with Mid-Paleozoic Microfossils as Biosignatures to Aid in the Search for Life

open access: yesLife, 2021
Identifying microbial fossils in the rock record is a difficult task because they are often simple in morphology and can be mimicked by non-biological structures.

Crossed Tracks: Mesolimulus, Archaeopteryx, and the Nature of Fossils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Organisms leave a variety of traces in the fossil record. Among these traces, vertebrate and invertebrate paleontologists conventionally recognize a distinction between the remains of an organism’s phenotype (body fossils) and the remains of an organism ...

Bioerosive structures of sclerozoan foraminifera from the lower pliocene of southern Spain: a contribution to the palaeoecology of marine hard substrate communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A palaeoecological study of sclerozoan foraminifera of the families Saccamminidae (aff. Sagenina), Lituolidae (Placopsilina), Cibicididae (Cibicides, Dyocibicides, Cibicidella) and Planorbulinidae (Planorbulina and Planorbulinella) that colonized ...

From Single Atoms to Nanoparticles: Pathways Toward Efficient and Durable Pt/TiO2 Photocatalysts

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Platinum single atoms on TiO2 nanosheets evolve into clusters and nanoparticles under ethanol photoreforming and thermal treatments. By controlling deposition and post‐treatments, particle size and location on specific facets are modulated. The study reveals how stability pathways determine efficiency, guiding the design of more durable photocatalysts.
