🦈 New #Open-access paper 🥳 on the impact of the Permian–Triassic mass extinction 🌋 on marine vertebrates 🐠, from the Dolomites (Italy) together with @aswolniewicz.bsky.social, Carlo Romano & others. We report the first Early Triassic marine reptile from the Dolomites 😎 #FossilFriday

New insights into the extinction and recovery of marine vertebrates across the Permian–Triassic mass extinction event in the Dolomites, Southern Alps, ItalyThe impact of the Permian–Triassic mass extinction on marine vertebrates is incompletely understood due to their scarce fossil record. To better understand marine vertebrate extinction and recovery...www.tandfonline.com

#FossilFriday 🐚 The Late Jurassic Portland Stone contains fossil molds of the shells that occupied the warm, sub-tropical seas over 140 million years ago! 🌊 ​Images are of the external walls of the Laidlaw Library at the @universityofleeds.bsky.social 🏛️

🦑 ​For #MolluskMonday, here are some Oxfordian (Late Jurassic) ammonites and bivalves from the Lower Calcareous Grit, found during the University of Leeds ESSI away day field trip to Cayton Bay, Scarborough. 🐚

🧐 How does temporal resolution alter what we think we know about Earth's biggest mass extinction event? 🐚 📉 😎 ​Our new preprint on the influence of temporal resolution on inferences of the Permian-Triassic mass extinction is out on @biorxiv.org 🥳 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Temporal resolution reshapes dynamics of inferred community structure and extinction selectivity across the Permian-Triassic mass extinctionThe Permian-Triassic mass extinction fundamentally restructured ecosystems, yet it remains unresolved whether ecological collapse unfolded gradually or in discrete steps, and how extinction selectivit...www.biorxiv.org
