💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🌸🌿 #Utrecht University researchers studied drill cores from the #UK and Northwest #Europe to track #wildfires during the end-Triassic #extinction 201 million years ago.
Using a new darkness index on #fossil pollen and a fern-to-fern #fire cycle, they found that #CO2-driven #warming collapsed #forests and let #ferns fuel intense repeated burns for up to 300,000 years. The ferns acted as both disaster colonizers and self-perpetuating wildfire fuel.

There is a layer in Late Triassic rocks in Europe called ‘the dark zone’, because it's full of darkening of pollen and spores. Its origin is in forest collapse and intense fires during the end-Triassic mass extinction.

An Internet search suggests the locality known for #dinosaur footprints in the #Triassic outcrops along the coast near Barry, South Wales is The Bendricks, to the east of the town. However, I was told some had also been found on the rocks along the west side of Whitmore Bay, so went to have a look. The best candidates I found are circled in this photo. £1 coin for scale. I'd be interested to know what others think.

El Hyperodapedon sanjuanensis fue un reptil rincosaurio del Triásico tardío (231-227 MdA) con un potente premaxilar en forma de pico y placas dentales con los que cortar y masticar las pteridospermas y posiblemente excavar en búsqueda de alimento. Al extinguirse estas plantas, también lo hicieron ellos. 📷Petr Menshikov #triasico #triassic

Today, with overfishing removing #sharks and warming #oceans slowing currents, #octopus, #squid, and #cuttlefish are booming again – a 400% increase since the 1960s. 📈

El Sclerocormus parviceps fue un ictiosauriforme del Triásico temprano (248 MdA) de 1,5 m de longitud y más de 15 kg de peso, donde 92 cm pertenecen a la cola. No habría nadado muy rápido ni en aguas muy profundas, alimentándose probablemente por succión, alimentándose de presas pequeñas debido a sus diminutas mandíbulas.📷Nobu Tamura #triasico #triassic

🌍 Geographic & evolutionary significance: Geometric #morphometric analysis places 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘶𝘴 among the most morphologically extreme austrolimulids, most similar to forms from #australia. This extends their range to Central Europe and reveals Triassic xiphosurids were already widespread by the Early #Triassic, suggesting rapid post-Permian #diversification or earlier dispersal.

El parque nacional del Bosque Petrificado en Arizona, Estados Unidos, conserva árboles caídos fosilizados del Triásico tardío (225 MdA). En su día, cayeron en los ríos y quedaron enterrados en ceniza volcánica. El agua subterránea eliminó el sílice y dejó los cristales de cuarzo con trazas de óxido de hierro, que le dan su color. Se han identificado 200 plantas, 9 de ellas árboles, donde predomina la conífera Araucarioxylon arizonicum.📷Jerome Gorin #triasico #triassic

Por su cuello excepcionalmente largo, el Lijiangosaurus yongshengensis parece un plesiosaurio, pero es un notosaurio, que tenía patas palmeadas. Vivió en el Triásico medio (246-241 MdA) de más de 2,5 m, donde 18,2 cm corresponden a la cabeza y 115 cm al cuello, con 42 vértebras. La articulaciones entre las apófisis superiores e inferiores de las vértebras habrían limitado el movimiento lateral del cuello.📷Kelai Li #triasico #triassic

El Guizhouichthyosaurus tangae fue un ictiosaurio del Triásico superior (241-227 MdA) que medía, al menos, 5 metros de longitud. A diferencia de ictiosaurios posteriores, aún habría nadado como las anguilas. Su dieta era variada, sin especializarse en una presa, usando sus pequeños dientes sin bordes para agarrar a su presa, ahogarla y agitarla para despedazarla como las orcas. 📷Slate Weasel #triasico #triassic

El Mirasaura grauvogeli fue un drepanosaurio del Triásico medio (247 MdA) con prolongaciones cutáneas en el dorso que habría mudado regularmente. Estos apéndices habrían surgido de forma independiente y sin relación con las plumas y pelos desarrollados en otros clados, aunque tienen similitudes con las primeras.📷Gabriel Ugueto #Triasico #Triassic
