Utrecht Paleogeography model in prep!
We're integrating our detailed reconstructions of orogenic belts and lost subducted plates into one plate tectonic and paleogeography model. We'll launch the updated Paleolatitude.org soon, and more tools for geodynamic, paleoclimate, and paleobiology studies!

Calcifying plankton: From biomineralization to global change
The cycling of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in the ocean is closely linked to seawater alkalinity and the regulation of atmospheric CO2. In the modern pelagic ocean, almost all CaCO3 is produced by three...

New rules for a rat-race. I my opinion, all this micro-accounting (= internal author struggles), inhibits effective collaboration. Science increasingly turns to a goal-oriented bureaucracy, away from an open art-like exploration, curiosity and thruth-seeking.

Google Scholar tool gives extra credit to first and last authors
Researchers welcome the initiative, but say it doesn’t go far enough to capture the nuance of researcher productivity and impact.

I am pleased to advertise the publication of the first part of the catalogue of type specimens of the #molluscs (and a brachiopod...) in the Born collection in the @nhmwien.bsky.social. Many Born's names introduced in the late 18th c. are still valid today.
