Two underwater sea lilies were eaten and regurgitated around 66 million years ago. They were preserved as fossilized vomit.

What’s 66-million-year-old vomit like? A lot more pleasant than the fresh stuff, says paleontologist Jesper Milan.

MacFadden, University of Florida (THE CONVERSATION) The ratios of strontium isotopes in fossil shark teeth can be used to better understand how coastal environments evolved in ancient times ...

Our study was one of the first to date Florida coastal deposits using fossil shark teeth and a technique that looks at variations in ocean strontium. Strontium is a chemical element that occurs ...
