Abstract: Reconstructed habitats of Australopithecus anamensis at Kanapoi by Wynn (2000) yielded evidence for both wooded and grassy environments. Wynn's study was based on stable isotopic (δ13CPC, δ18OPC) analyses of a small sample of pedogenic nodules… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jsames.2021.103490
Abstract: Abstract The presence of the fern Weichselia in a restricted sedimentary interval of a drilling core in the Parnaiba Basin (Brazil) was used as a lead for paleoenvironmental interpretation integrating paleobotanical, palynofacies, palynological, organic petrography… read more here.
