  1. 1. Evolution and ecology of Baltic late Ordovician univalved molluscs

    Author : Jan Ove Rõysi Ebbestad; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Historical Geology and Paleontology; historisk geologi och paleontologi;

    Abstract : Univalved molluscs (Gastropoda and Tergomya) are common fossils in the Palaeozoic succession across Baltoscandia, but most of the more embracive descriptive works on this group appeared before or near the turn of the 19th century. The study presented here aims at revision and description of some Baltoscandian late Ordovician/early Silurian univalved molluscs with emphasis on their shell morphology. READ MORE

  2. 2. The Cambrian lophotrochozoans of the Transantarctic Mountains, Antarctica

    Author : Lewis Bassett-Butt; Lars Holmer; Glenn Brock; Christian Skovsted; Jan Ove Ebbestad; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Brachiopoda; Dailyatia; Cambrian; Drumian; Middle Cambrian; Early Cambrian; Antarctica; tommotiid; camenellan; palaeobiology; small shelly fossils; Earth Science with specialization in Historical Geology and Palaeontology; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot historisk geologi och paleontologi;

    Abstract : The origin of many lophotrochozoan groups can be traced to “small shelly fossil” (SSF) faunas of the Early Cambrian. Antarctica is a key region of study, due to the continent’s known close geographical proximity to well-studied Australian and Indian basins in in the Cambrian. READ MORE

  3. 3. Geology, stratigraphy, and fossil vertebrates of Gotland, Sweden : a review

    Author : Oskar Bremer; Henning Blom; Per Ahlberg; Märss Tiiu; Jan Ove Ebbestad; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Silurian; Gotland geology; Baltic Basin; extinction events; isotope excursions; atmospheric and oceanic cycles; early vertebrates; scale taxonomy; environmental preferences; vertebrate biozonation.; Earth Science with specialization in Historical Geology and Palaeontology; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot historisk geologi och paleontologi;

    Abstract : The Silurian limestones of Gotland, Sweden, and their exceptionally well-preserved fossils have attracted the interest of scientists for more than 200 years. The sedimentary rocks represent approximately 10 million years of time, and were deposited in a shallow, equatorial inland sea named the Baltic Basin. READ MORE

  4. 4. Cambrian Series 2 (Stages 3-4) Small Shelly Fossils from East Antarctica

    Author : Thomas Claybourn; Lars Holmer; Christian Skovsted; Glenn Brock; Graham Budd; Jan Ove Ebbestad; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : An assemblage of Cambrian Series 2, Stages 3-4 small shelly fossils has been recovered from the Shackleton Limestone and Holyoake Formations of East Antarctica. Small shelly fossils from the early Cambrian are an important window into the world of Cambrian palaeobiology, biostratigraphy and biogeography. READ MORE

  5. 5. Late Ordovician Faunal Distribution and Ecospace Partitioning in Marine Impact Craters : The Aftermath of the Lockne and Tvären Events

    Author : Åsa M Frisk; Lars Holmer; Jan Ove Ebbestad; Maurits Lindström; Alan Owen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : impact crater; Lockne; Tvären; ecospace; the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : In the Middle to Late Ordovician a boost of marine biodiversity occurred which is regarded as the most rapid diversity in Earth’s history, and termed the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event. This time is also unique in that at least four marine meteorite craters with a good record of post-impact sediments are preserved in Baltoscandia. READ MORE
