    “El present és la clau del passat”. James Hutton (1788), amb aquesta prou coneguda asserció uniformista, posà els fonaments pel desenvolupament de la investigació geològica moderna des de la perspectiva actualista. ...

    Oological Record of Dinosaurs in South-Central Pyrenees (SW Europe): Parataxonomy, diversity and biostratigraphical implications 

    Garcia Sellés, Albert (Date of defense: 2012-06-22)

    Southern Pyrenees has provided an abundant fossil record of dinosaur eggs and eggshells. Historically, the oofamily Megaloolithidae has shown its predominance over any other group of fossil eggs in this region. In addition, ...

    Pérez de la Fuente, Ricardo (Date of defense: 2012-12-21)

    El yacimiento de ámbar de El Soplao (Rábago, Cantabria), de edad Cretácico Inferior (hace unos 110 millones de años), ha proporcionado a día de hoy más de 500 bioinclusiones de artrópodos. El estudio morfológico y sistemático ...

    Paleobiología de los escarabajos (Insecta: Coleoptera) de los ámbares cretácicos del oeste europeo 

    Peris Cerdán, David (Date of defense: 2015-11-27)

    Los coleópteros son en la actualidad el grupo biológico con mayor biodiversidad de la Tierra. Se conocen coleópteros fósiles desde el Pérmico, pero conservados en ámbar solo desde el Cretácico inferior. Este tipo de ...

    Paleogene Chronostratigraphy of the SE Margin of the Ebro Basin: Biochronological and Tectonosedimentary Evolution Implications (Cronostratigrafia del paleogen del marge SE de la conca de l’Ebre: Implicacions biocronològiques i evolució tectonosedimentaria)
