DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.02.010
Abstract: Abstract The loess–red clay sequences in northern China provide high-resolution terrestrial records of Asian monsoon evolution and aridification of the Asian interior. To date, however, aeolian deposits of late Pliocene-early Pleistocene age (3.5–2.4 Ma) have… read more here.

DOI: 10.3398/064.080.0312
Abstract: Abstract. While borophagine canids are known from numerous Tertiary faunas across North America, they have not been well documented from the Tertiary faunas of Idaho. Five species represented by 2 genera are now known from… read more here.
