Provenance history of a Late Triassic-Jurassic Gondwana margin forearc basin, Murihiku Terrane, North Island, New Zealand: petrographic and geochemical constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Murihiku Terrane in the North Island was a forearc basin adjacent to a volcanic arc along the eastern margin of Gondwana during the Mesozoic. The rocks that infill the basin are mainly volcaniclastic sandstones and mudstones, often turbiditic, with ...

The fossil record of early tetrapods: worker effort and the end-Permian mass extinction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is important to understand the quality of the fossil record of early tetrapods (Tetrapoda, minus Lissamphibia and Amniota) because of their key role in the transition of vertebrates from water to land, their dominance of terrestrial faunas for over ...

The Acadian Triassic [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Geology, 1916
The Newark rocks in the Acadian area exhibit a monoclinal structure, with a prevailing northwesterly dip, interrupted by broad, low folds. The monocline is broken by numerous faults with a small displacement and by occasional faults with a displacement of hundreds of feet.

Reassessment of the evidence for postcranial skeletal pneumaticity in Triassic archosaurs, and the early evolution of the avian respiratory system. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Uniquely among extant vertebrates, birds possess complex respiratory systems characterised by the combination of small, rigid lungs, extensive pulmonary air sacs that possess diverticula that invade (pneumatise) the postcranial skeleton, unidirectional ...
