1. Who ate whom? Paleoecology revealed through synchrotron microtomography of coprolites (fossil feces)
Sammanfattning : Fossil droppings, known as coprolites, are being increasingly recognized as a valuable source of paleoecological information with special regard to diets, parasitism, and physiology of extinct taxa. Here, it is suggested that the excellent preservation and amount of inclusions in the coprolites (e.g. LÄS MER
2. Novel approaches to the environments and ecosystems of the fish-tetrapod transition
Sammanfattning : The fish-tetrapod transition is one of the most important evolutionary events in Earth’s history, giving rise to terrestrial vertebrates around 390 million years ago. It set the stage for a series of evolutionary events that ultimately resulted in modern-day terrestrial vertebrates including ourselves. LÄS MER
3. Early land plant spores from the Paleozoic of Sweden – taxonomy, stratigraphy and paleoenvironments
Sammanfattning : The Silurian through earliest Devonian, between ca 444 and 412 million years ago, was characterized by significant changes in global climate and environment. At that time, plants and animals had begun to expand the colonization of previous relatively desolate terrestrial landscape. LÄS MER
