A peculiar connection between image processing and geology: a new preprint by a Master student
Connecting seemingly unrelated fields in science can yield surprising and fruitful insights and be the cause of great surprise. Who could have guesses that the way the geological record hides extinctions from us is mathematically equivalent to the methods teenagers use hide their pimples on their facebook profile pictures? If you want to know more […]

Toarcian belemnite accumulations investigation with the support of CT data
Body size changes have been reported across crisis intervals. Belemnites – now considered extinct stemdecabrachians – have rarely been investigated for this purpose, and the few studies have resulted in ambiguous outcomes. Here we investigate two Toarcian belemnite accumulations in southern Germany from a morphometric point of view with the support of computed tomography data. […]

International Palaeontological Congress, from July 9th to 13th, 2018, France
Erlangen paleontologists and TERSANE members met in Paris for the 5th International Palaeontological Congress. A total of 12 talks and keynotes were presented on diverse topics such as latitudinal selectivity, body size and paleobiogeographic patterns during mass extinctions. Diversity patterns and parasites in the fossil record were also part of the research presented at this […]
