Journal ArticleDOI

Increased fire activity at the Triassic/Jurassic boundary in Greenland due to climate-driven floral change

TL;DR: This paper found a fivefold increase in the abundance of fossil charcoal in the earliest Jurassic, which they attributed to a climate-driven shift from a prevalence of broad-leaved taxa to a predominantly narrow-leaf assemblage.
Journal ArticleDOI

An explanation for conflicting records of Triassic―Jurassic plant diversity

TL;DR: Comparing macrofossil and sporomorph records of Tr-J vegetation change may help to understand vegetation change during the P-Tr and K-T mass extinctions and around the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Palaeoecology of the Late Triassic extinction event in the SW UK

TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution study of the shelly invertebrate macrofauna across two marine Triassic-Jurassic boundary sections in the UK (St. Audrie9s Bay and Lavernock Point) is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

High potential for weathering and climate effects of non-vascular vegetation in the Late Ordovician

TL;DR: A spatially explicit modelling approach to simulate global weathering by non-vascular vegetation in the Late Ordovician is presented and it is found that simulated weathering is highly sensitive to atmospheric CO2 concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative performance of airyscan and structured illumination superresolution microscopy in the study of the surface texture and 3D shape of pollen.

TL;DR: Airyscan confocal superresolution and structured illumination superresolution (SR‐SIM) microscopy are powerful new tools for the study of nanoscale pollen morphology and three‐dimensional structure that can overcome basic limitations of optical microscopy.
