In recent years photogrammetry has become an essential tool in the study of tetrapod
footprints. Morphological analyses of footprints are interpretative; thus, researchers should …

Many Permian desert tracks are found in formations dominated by rather homogeneous
aeolian quartz arenites. This raises questions around how they got preserved. Here we test …

Tetrapod tracks in eolianites are widespread in the fossil record since the late Paleozoic.
Among these ichnofaunas, the ichnogenus Chelichnus is the most representative of the …

Lakes are particularly sensitive to environmental fluctuations, which are recorded in their
facies and stratigraphy. Ephemeral lakes reveal their sensitivity to palaeoenvironmental …

Abstract The Botucatu Formation (Paraná Basin) is an eolian deposit that represents an
extensive paleoerg that existed in the south-central Gondwana during the Early Cretaceous …

This paper presents a synthesis of the advances in the geologic knowledge of the late
Paleozoic basins of southern South America during the last decade. The information is …

Abstract During the Early Cretaceous, a large area in Brazil and other South American
countries was covered by an extensive paleoerg field, the Botucatu Desert. The Araraquara …

Tetrapod-track taphonomic modes (TTTM) have been used recently as sensitive indicators
of paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic conditions during deposition and imprinting of the …

Ancient desert, characterized by low biotic diversity as well as low preservation potential,
has long been assumed as devoid of biotic activity. However, recent works from Mesozoic …

ABSTRACT The Santa Clara Abajo and Santa Clara Arriba formations host a diverse
assemblage of trace fossils that record a wide range of behaviors and a broad array of …
