A groundbreaking study published in Current Biology, titled “Carnivorous dinosaur lineages adopt different skull performances at gigantic size”, has revealed striking differences in the hunting strategies of the world’s largest predatory dinosaurs. By analyzing fossilized skulls, researchers found that while some species were adept at slicing through massive slabs of flesh, others had evolved jaws capable of delivering formidable, bone-crushing …

A groundbreaking discovery in southern China has revealed a 400-mile-long chain of extinct volcanoes buried deep below the Sichuan Basin, a region historically part of the Yangtze Block. The findings, outlined in a recent study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, shed light on the ancient volcanic activity that took place during the early breakup of the supercontinent …

Researchers have discovered a 400-mile-long chain of extinct, fossilized volcanoes buried deep below South China. The volcanoes formed when two tectonic plates collided during the breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia hundreds of millions of years ago, the scientists reported in a new study. The ancient volcanoes extend the region of past volcanism in this area by several hundred miles and …
