Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 435-447., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Trilobite expansion into estuarine environments during the Ordovician radiation [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 Trilobites have traditionally been considered fully marine. Through the integration of ichnological, palaeobiological and sedimentological datasets within a sequence-stratigraphic and stratiÂgraphic palaeobiology framework, we challenge this assumption.

Moulting Patterns in Trilobites from the Devonian of Paraná Basin
Terr@ Plural, 2021 In general, trilobites had their moulting performed by the breakdown of the librigena, a region (more external) situated on the cephalon of those animals.

Ontogenetic moulting behavior of the Cambrian oryctocephalid trilobite Arthricocephalites xinzhaiheensis [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Moulting behaviors in trilobites are a crucial strategy during development. Previous studies have demonstrated inter-and intraspecific variability of moulting behavior in trilobites.

A new middle Cambrian trilobite with a specialized cephalon from Shandong Province, North China [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2020 Trilobites achieved their maximum generic diversity in the Cambrian, but the peak of morphological disparity of their cranidia occurred in the Middle to Late Ordovician. Early to middle Cambrian trilobites with a specialized cephalon are rare, especially

Polyatomic trilobite Rydberg molecules in a dense random gas [PDF]
, 2004 Trilobites are exotic giant dimers with enormous dipole moments. They consist of a Rydberg atom and a distant ground-state atom bound together by short-range electron-neutral attraction. We show that highly polar, polyatomic trilobite states unexpectedly

Advances in the Lower Ordovician of the western Iberian Chain, NE Spain [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 The western Iberian Chain of NE Spain represents a lateral prolongation of the West Asturian-Leonese Zone. As other proximal sectors fringing NW Gondwana, the chain comprises a conÂformable and continuous FurongianâTremadocian transition, comprising a

On the lower boundary of the Floian Stage in Estonia [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2012 The lower boundary of the Second Stage of the Lower Ordovician Series, the Floian Stage, is defined by the first appearance of the graptolite Tetragraptus approximatus.
