The Mesozoic Lacustrine Revolution

The Mesozoic lacustrine revolution (MLR) represents a major evolutionary event in the continental realm (Cohen 2003 ). The decline in taxic diversity at the family level in lacustrine environments that took place during the late Paleozoic–Middle Triassic was reversed later in the Mesozoic, with diversifi cation seeming to have continued to the Quaternary, although potential biases may have affe...

A bottom-up perspective on ecosystem change in Mesozoic oceans

Mesozoic and Early Cenozoic marine animals across multiple phyla record secular trends in morphology, environmental distribution, and inferred behaviour that are parsimoniously explained in terms of increased selection pressure from durophagous predators. Another systemic change in Mesozoic marine ecosystems, less widely appreciated than the first, may help to explain the observed animal record...

Discussion on structural evolution of Mesozoic Peninsular Malaysia

W. Altermann writes: In their discussion of palaeotectonics and palaeogeography of Malay Peninsula, Harbury et al. propose an alternative interpretation to Sengor’s (1984) model of Triassic or early Jurassic collision of the Cimmerian (Sibumasu) block with the Indochina block in the east. Their interpretation depicts Malay Peninsula as part of Triassic and lower Jurassic Australian Gondwana. ...
