Volume 653, number 1: Outflow-driven Cavities: Numerical
We investigate the evolution of fossil cavities produced by extinct young stellar object (YSO) jets and wide-angle outflows. Fossil cavities are ellipsoidal or cylindrical shells of swept-up ambient (molecular cloud) material moving at
Scientists unveil first Nevada land-based dinosaur fossils
They found fossils of turtle shells and dinosaur teeth on the surface of what later became an excavation site in March 2005. "If you find fossils on the surface, it's kind of like smoke, like there's something else," Bonde said.

What time these fossil shells, Buoy'd on their native element, were thrown Among the imbedding calx: when the huge hill Its giant bulk heaved, and in strange ferment Grew up a guardian barrier, 'twixt the sea
Climate change sceptics lose vital argument
These variations also affect the ratio of oxygen isotopes in marine fossil shells. By measuring these isotope ratios, the team calculated that the Gulf Stream was 10 per cent weaker during the little ice age (Nature, vol 444, p 601).
Spawn of The Sea Nymph
David Siveter said, "Ostracods are common, pin-head sized crustaceans known from thousands of living species in garden ponds to oceans and from countless fossil shells up to 500 million years old; however, their fossilized soft-parts

Climate change - one degree till the point of no return
To account for this, Hansen compared our current temperature with that of prehistoric times, by looking at fossil shells. Shelled animals deposit different amounts of minerals into their shells depending on the surrounding temperatures,
