• Teeth of Past and Present Elephants: Microstructure and Composition of Enamel in Fossilized Proboscidean Molars and Implications for Diagenesis 

  Białas, Nataniel; Prymak, Oleg; Singh, Ningthoujam Premjit; Paul, Debajyoti; Patnaik, Rajeev; Epple, Matthias (Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021-04-22)

  Abstract Enamel as hardest biological tissue remains unaltered for millions of years and is therefore an excellent archive for studies on paleodiet, paleoecology, paleoclimate, paleoenvironment, biomechanical, and evolutionary ...

• Bryozoan‐rich stromatolites (bryostromatolites) from the Silurian of Gotland and their relation to climate‐related perturbations of the global carbon cycle 

  Claussen, Anna Lene; Munnecke, Axel; Ernst, Andrej (Sedimentology, 2021-05-12)

  ABSTRACT Bryozoan–stromatolite associations (bryostromatolites) formed conspicuous reef structures throughout the Sheinwoodian (Wenlock) to Ludfordian (Ludlow) stratigraphy on Gotland but have not been described so far. ...

• The evolution of thecideide microstructures and textures: traced from Triassic to Holocene 

  Simonet Roda, Maria; Griesshaber, Erika; Angiolini, Lucia; Harper, David A.T.; Jansen, Ulrich; Bitner, Maria Aleksandra; Henkel, Daniela; Manzanero, Eloy; Müller, Tamás; Tomašových, Adam; Eisenhauer, Anton; Ziegler, Andreas; Schmahl, Wolfgang W. (Lethaia, 2021-04-02)

  Thecideide brachiopods are an anomalous group of invertebrates. In this study, we discuss the evolution of thecideide brachiopods from the Triassic to the Holocene and base our results and conclusions on microstructure and ...

• Not herbs and forbs alone: pollen‐based evidence for the presence of boreal trees and shrubs in Cis‐Baikal (Eastern Siberia) derived from the Last Glacial Maximum sediment of Lake Ochaul 

  Kobe, Franziska; Leipe, Christian; Shchetnikov, Alexander A.; Hoelzmann, Philipp; Gliwa, Jana; Olschewski, Pascal; Goslar, Tomasz; Wagner, Mayke; Bezrukova, Elena V.; Tarasov, Pavel E. (Journal of Quaternary Science, 2021-03-16)

  ABSTRACT A new accerator mass spectrometry (AMS)‐dated sedimentary record from Lake Ochaul (54°14′N, 106°28′E; 641 m a.s.l.) in Eastern Siberia covers the interval from ca. 27 850 to 20 400 cal a bp at ca. 180‐year resolution ...

• Countergradient variation concealed adaptive responses to temperature increase in Daphnia from heated lakes 

  Dziuba, Marcin Krzysztof; Kuczyński, Lechosław; Wejnerowski, Łukasz; Cerbin, Slawek; Wolinska, Justyna (Limnology and Oceanography, 2020-12-21)

  Abstract To test the general assumption that global warming will induce body size reduction in aquatic organisms, we used a system of lakes continually heated for six decades by warm water discharge from power plants. Their ...
