Massive volcanic eruptions did not cause the extinction of dinosaurs

Discovered teeth of (a) spinosaur, (b) tyrannosaur, (c) dromaeosaur, (d) possible tyrannosaur, (e) indeterminate tyrannoraptoran - the group containing tyrannosaurs and dromaeosaurs (Velociraptor and kin). Credit Barker et al (2024)

Tyrannosaur teeth discovered in Bexhill-on-Sea, England

The researchers have chosen to understand the biology of early dinosaurs based on their dietary preferences.

T. Rex not as smart as previously claimed

The artist’s impression shows a dromaeosaur, a type of feathered theropod, in the snow. This dinosaur group is popularly known as a raptor. A well-known dromaeosaur is Velociraptor, portrayed in the film Jurassic Park. Credit: Davide Bonadonna/Universidade de Vigo/UCL

First ‘warm-blooded’ dinosaurs may have emerged 180 million years ago

Researchers discover hidden step in dinosaur feather evolution

These ancient metamorphic rocks called gneisses, found on the Arctic Coast, represent the roots of the continents now exposed at the surface. The scientists said sedimentary rocks interlayered in these types of rocks would provide a heat engine for stabilizing the continents. Credit: Jesse Reimink. All Rights Reserved.

Coal core

Can coal mines be tapped for rare earth elements?

Magnified through a microscope, diatoms, which are a type of siliceous microalgae preserved within sediment, helped the researchers determine the salinity levels of the core samples. Photo courtesy of Jessica DePaolis.
