Visiting scientist – Amanda Godbold, University of Southern California
Amanda Godbold is visiting the Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg from May 5th to July 31st 2018. During her stay she will compare the temporal changes in biodiversity across multiple sections within the Dachstein reef for the purpose of assessing ecologic stability. She is also interested in recording the spatial variability of these patch reefs. Amanda studies […]

Talk of Prof. Yukio Isozaki: Wonders of the end-Guadalupian (Permian) extinction, 26 June, 14:30
Wonders of the end-Guadalupian (Permian) extinction The largest mass extinction of the Phanerozoic occurred in two distinct steps. The Permo-Triassic boundary extinction, the second episode (252 Ma), is widely known; however, the first one at the end of Guadalupian (Middle Permian; 259 Ma) was probably more significant in the life history and environments of the […]

Talk of Prof. Yukio Isozaki: A really inconvenient truth of global warming, 18 June 2018, 15h
A really inconvenient truth of global warming Modern-day global warming appears so dangerous for our future that many geologists/paleontologists claimed for an analogy from the past. Nonetheless, is the on-going warming explained solely by human activity? This talk explores an alternative possible cause of global warming/cooling, not on the earth but in the universe. The […]

Article in Palaeontology online by master’s student
Palaeontology Online is a website about paleontology for non-specialists. Its Fossil Focus series features an article about Thalattosuchia, a special group of crocodiles. Among the authors is our master’s student, Pascal Abel, who has been studying crocodiles from southern Germany since his bachelor’s thesis.

Paleobilogy MSc student publishes on climatology
Nussaïbah B. Raja, a master’s student in paleobiology, has published an article in Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics in collaboration with Olgu Aydin. In her study, she analyzes precipitation variability in Mauritius between 1981 and 2010. She has demonstrated that the frequency of extreme precipitation events in the region has increased.
