Palaeoenvironmental analysis based on alluvial ostracod assemblages of the Cenicero section (lower Miocene, NW Ebro Basin)
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales, 2015)
In this work we perform for the first time a palaeoenvironmental and biostratigraphic analysis of the lower Miocene alluvial deposits of the Cenicero section (NW sector of the Ebro Basin; N Iberian Peninsula), based on the ...
Ichnotaxonomic Review of Large Ornithopod Dinosaur Tracks: Temporal and Geographic Implications
(Public Library Science, 2015-02-12)
Background
Large ornithopod tracks are known from the Upper Jurassic to the uppermost Cretaceous rocks of all continents but Antarctica. They include the tracks historically called Iguanodon footprints, iguanodontid ...
Lethal Interpersonal Violence in the Middle Pleistocene
(Public Library Science, 2015-05-27)
Evidence of interpersonal violence has been documented previously in Pleistocene members of the genus Homo, but only very rarely has this been posited as the possible manner of death. Here we report the earliest evidence ...
Island life in the Cretaceous - faunal composition, biogeography, evolution, and extinction of land-living vertebrates on the Late Cretaceous European archipelago
(Pensoft Publ., 2015)
The Late Cretaceous was a time of tremendous global change, as the final stages of the Age of Dinosaurs were shaped by climate and sea level fluctuations and witness to marked paleogeographic and faunal changes, before the ...
Combining Small-Vertebrate, Marine and Stable-Isotope Data to Reconstruct Past Environments
(Nature, 2015)
Three very different records are combined here to reconstruct the evolution of environments in
the Cantabrian Region during the Upper Pleistocene, covering ~35.000 years. Two of these records
come from Antoliñako Koba ...
Chemostratigraphic and lithostratigraphic signatures of the Anthropocene in estuarine areas from the eastern Cantabrian coast (N. Spain)
(Elsevier, 2015-04)
A range of chemostratigraphic and lithostratigraphic markers of human impacts can be recorded in four estuaries located in the eastern Cantabrian coast (northern Spain). Metal-enriched levels and stable Pb isotopic ratios ...
Relative sea-level changes in the Basque coast (northern Spain, Bay of Biscay) during the Holocene and Anthropocene: The Urdaibai estuary case
(Elsevier, 2015)
In order to reconstruct the environmental evolution process of the Urdaibai estuary in response to sea-level changes in the Basque coast (northern Spain, Bay of Biscay) during the last 8500 years, 10 boreholes were drilled ...
