Fifty Years in the Foothills: Ecosystem Evolution in the Neogene Siwalik Record of Pakistan Open
The continental fossil record has exceptional, long sequences of fossiliferous strata that are the basis for evaluating ecosystem dynamics and their formative influences. The Siwalik sequence of South Asia is one example. It occurs in the …

Dietary fidelity of Miocene ungulates in the context of environmental change in the Mojave Region, western North America Open
The fossil record of mammals preserves evidence for dietary adaptations that allowed lineages to persist in dynamic ecosystems for tens of millions of years. We investigated ecological attributes of fossil mammals during the middle to late…

Tectonic extension and paleoelevation influence mammalian diversity dynamics in the Basin and Range Province of western North America Open
Landscape properties have a profound influence on the diversity and distribution of biota, with present-day biodiversity hot spots occurring in topographically complex regions globally. Complex topography is created by tectonic processes a…

Carbon-isotope composition of artiodactyl tooth enamel and its implications for paleodiets Open
The stable carbon-isotope composition of mammalian tooth enamel is a powerful tool for reconstructing paleodiet and paleoenvironment. Its application in the fossil record relies on a thorough understanding of the isotopic composition of ma…

Volcanism and Rodent Evolution: ecological interactions in different geological provinces in America discussion from a workshop  Open
<p>Terrestrial biodiversity is higher in topographically complex regions than in low relief ones, and this diversity evolved over millions of years along elevation gradients with disequilibrium of climatic conditions and biological i…

Geometric morphometrics of mandibles for dietary differentiation of Bovidae (Mammalia: Artiodactyla) Open
The mammalian family Bovidae has been widely studied in ecomorphological research, with important applications to paleoecological and paleohabitat reconstructions. Most studies of bovid craniomandibular features in relation to diet have us…

Taphonomic information from the modern vertebrate death assemblage of Doñana National Park, Spain Open
Modern death assemblages provide insights about the early stages of fossilization and useful ecological information about the species inhabiting the ecosystem. We present the results of taphonomic monitoring of modern vertebrate carcasses …

Feeding Prometheus: An Interdisciplinary Approach for Solving the Global Food Crisis Open
The current global food system is inadequate to meet the needs of the current world population without compromising future well-being. For example, current intensified production systems lead to undernutrition in some regions coupled with …

Diet segregation in American bison (Bison bison) of Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming, USA) Open
Female bison in Yellowstone National Park have higher quality diets than males, whereas males ingest a greater diversity of plants or plants parts, and bison from different ranges exhibited more pronounced diet segregation during different…

Reviews and Resources:The Hidden Half of Nature: The Microbial Roots of Life and Health Open
“The hidden half of nature” refers to the microbial world within us, beneath our feet, and throughout Earth's ecosystems. Readers of this magazine already know the amazing facts about microbial numbers, their ancient origin, their metaboli…
View article: Feeding ecology and habitat preferences of top predators from two Miocene carnivore-rich assemblages
Feeding ecology and habitat preferences of top predators from two Miocene carnivore-rich assemblages Open
Carnivore-rich fossil sites are uncommon in the fossil record and, accordingly, provide valuable opportunities to study predators from vantages that are rarely applied to ancient faunas. Through stable isotopes of carbon and a Bayesian mix…
