With c. 24 700 species (10% of all flowering plants), Asteraceae are one of the largest and most phenotypically diverse angiosperm families, with considerable economic and ecological importance. Asteraceae are distribute...

Catalytic fast pyrolysis of sunflower seed shells was performed using a two-stage fixed bed reactor to produce partially deoxygenated bio-oils. Ketonization and aldol condensation reactions were performed in a dual bed r...

Niche construction theory has increasingly received attention in paleoanthropology as a new focus for considering the evolutionary consequences of hominin tool-use and cultural adaptation starting in the Pleistocene. Mod...

Systematic tool use is a central component of the human niche. However, the timing and mode of its evolution remain poorly understood. A newly developed method for the analysis of muscle recruitment patterns (Validated E...

Developmental plasticity, the ability to regulate aspects of development in response to environmental cues, is hypothesized to evolve in response to environmental heterogeneity and may facilitate dispersal, novel habitat...

As the twentieth century neared its midpoint, paleoanthropology was in dire need of revitalization and some coherent concept of evolution.  Sadly, as introduced to paleoanthropology by Ernst Mayr in 1950, the Modern Evo...

We present new biostratigraphic data provided by ammonites, calcareous nannofossils, and calpionellids from Las Alcantarillas, a 127 m-thick section from the Neuquén Basin, western Argentina. The combined biostratigraph...
