Diving dinosaurs? Caveats on the use of bone compactness and pFDA for inferring lifestyle

N. P. Myhrvold, P. C. Sereno, S. L. Baumgart, D. Vidal, F. E. Fish, D. M. Henderson, E. T. Saitta

The paper critiques the use of bone compactness and pFDA to infer diving behavior in spinosaurid dinosaurs, highlighting methodological flaws and questioning the conclusions drawn.

Response of soil and vegetation in a warm-temperate Pine forest to intensive biomass harvests, phosphorus fertilisation, and wood ash application.

L. Augusto, F. Beaumont, C. Nguyen, J.-Y. Fraysse, P. Trichet, C. Meredieu, D. Vidal, V. Sappin-Didier

This study evaluates the effects of intensive biomass harvests and nutrient compensation methods on soil and vegetation in a pine forest, finding negative impacts on soil fertility and carbon content despite nutrient additions.

Spinosaurus is not an aquatic dinosaur

P. C. Sereno, N. Myhrvold, D. M. Henderson, F. E. Fish, D. Vidal, S. L. Baumgart, T. M. Keillor, K. K. Formoso, L. L. Conroy

This paper challenges the aquatic hypothesis of Spinosaurus aegyptiacus, showing it was semiaquatic and bipedal, not fully aquatic.

Spinosaurids as 'subaqueous foragers' undermined by selective sampling and problematic statistical inference

N. P. Myhrvold, P. C. Sereno, S. L. Baumgart, K. K. Formoso, D. Vidal, F. E. Fish, D. M. Henderson

The paper critiques claims about spinosaurids being subaqueous foragers due to methodological flaws in bone analysis and statistical inference.

Natural genetic variation drives microbiome selection in the Caenorhabditis elegans gut

F. Zhang, J. L. Weckhorst, A. Assie, C. Hosea, C. A. Ayoub, A. Khodakova, M. L. Cabrera, D. Vidal, M.-A. Felix, B. S. Samuel

This study identifies natural genetic variation in C. elegans that drives microbiome assembly by influencing immune, xenobiotic, and metabolic signaling pathways.
