Increased Environmental Variability Triggered Human Behavioral Change Over 300,000 Years Ago
Scylla posted a topic in Fossil News
Tool kits stayed similar from 700,000 Years ago until this climatic shift 320,000 years ago and then our tools got more diverse and sophisticated. https://phys.org/news/2020-10-turbulent-era-human-behavior-years.html#lightbox -

Hello everybody! Today I want to introduce you to a book that I really found fascinating. It is quite aged and probably some of you have already read it, but I think it's worth anyway! The book is called "The Ecology of Fossils", an illustrated guide edited by W.S. McKerrow and published by Duckworth in 1978. Essentialy it depicts the life assemblage of dozens of communities of the past, focusing on the British record. The marine habitats are extensively covered, whilst the terrestrial habitats are much less in number, but the same is true for our knowledge of them.

New paper on Appalachian Dinosaur Biogeography and Ecology
Chase B. posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Hi all, I just wanted to let everyone interested in eastern North American dinosaurs know that my paper reviewing and analyzing Appalachian dinosaur faunas was published as Brownstein (2018). The full citation and doi are below. Brownstein, CD. 2018. The biogeography and ecology of the Cretaceous non-avian dinosaurs of Appalachia. Palaeontologia Electronica 21.1.5A: 1-56. All the best, Chase- 7 replies
