  • Effects of allometry, productivity and lifestyle on rates and limits of body size evolution 
    Okie, Jordan G.; Boyer, Alison G.; Brown, James H.; Costa, Daniel P.; Ernest, S. K. Morgan; Evans, Alistair R.; Fortelius, Mikael; Gittleman, John L.; Hamilton, Marcus J.; Harding, Larisa E.; Lintulaakso, Kari; Lyons, Sara K.; Saarinen, Juha J.; Smith, Felisa A.; Stephens, Patrick R.; Theodor, Jessica; Uhen, Mark D.; Sibly, Richard M. (2013)
    Body size affects nearly all aspects of organismal biology, so it is important to understand the constraints and dynamics of body size evolution. Despite empirical work on the macroevolution and macroecology of minimum and ...
  • The Evolution of Maximum Body Size of Terrestrial Mammals 
    Smith, Felisa A.; Boyer, Alison G.; Brown, James H.; Costa, Daniel P.; Dayan, Tamar; Ernest, S. K. Morgan; Evans, Alistair R.; Fortelius, Mikael; Gittleman, John L.; Hamilton, Marcus J.; Harding, Larisa E.; Lintulaakso, Kari; Lyons, Sara K.; McCain, Christy; Okie, Jordan G.; Saarinen, Juha J.; Sibly, Richard M.; Stephens, Patrick R.; Theodor, Jessica; Uhen, Mark D. (2010)
    The extinction of dinosaurs at the Cretaceous/Paleogene (K/Pg) boundary was the seminal event that opened the door for the subsequent diversification of terrestrial mammals. Our compilation of maximum body size at the ...
  • From Card Catalogs to Computers: Databases in Vertebrate Paleontology 
    Uhen, Mark D.; Barnosky, Anthony D.; Bills, Brian; Blois, Jessica; Carrano, Matthew T.; Carrasco, Marc A.; Erickson, Gregory M.; Eronen, Jussi T.; Fortelius, Mikael; Graham, Russell W.; Grimm, Eric C.; O'Leary, Maureen A.; Mast, Austin; Piel, William H.; Polly, P. David; Saila, Laura K. (2013)
    Data, whether images, measurements, counts, occurrences, or character codings, are a cornerstone of vertebrate paleontology. Every published paper, master's thesis, and doctoral dissertation relies on these data to ...
  • Herbivore teeth predict climatic limits in Kenyan ecosystems 
    Zliobaite, Indre; Rinne, Janne; Tóth, Anikó B.; Mechenich, Michael; Liu, Liping; Behrensmeyer, Anna K.; Fortelius, Mikael (2016)
    A major focus in evolutionary biology is to understand how the evolution of organisms relates to changes in their physical environment. In the terrestrial realm, the interrelationships among climate, vegetation, and ...
  • The maximum rate of mammal evolution 
    Evans, Alistair R.; Jones, David; Boyer, Alison G.; Brown, James H.; Costa, Daniel P.; Ernest, S. K. M.; Fitzgerald, Erich M. G.; Fortelius, Mikael; Gittleman, John L.; Hamilton, Marcus J.; Harding, Larisa E.; Lintulaakso, Kari; Lyons, Sara K.; Okie, Jordan G.; Saarinen, Juha J.; Sibly, Richard M.; Smith, Felisa A.; Stephens , Patrick R.; Theodor, Jessica M.; Uhen, Mark D. (2012)
    How fast can a mammal evolve from the size of a mouse to the size of an elephant? Achieving such a large transformation calls for major biological reorganization. Thus, the speed at which this occurs has important implications ...
  • The Neogene Siwaliks of the Potwar Plateau, Pakistan 
    Barry, John C.; Behrensmeyer, Anna K.; Badgley, Catherine E.; Flynn, Lawrence J.; Peltonen, Hannele; Cheema, I. U.; Pilbeam, David; Lindsay, Everett H.; Raza, S. M.; Rajpar, Abdul Rahim; Morgan, Michele E. (Columbia University Press, 2013)
  • Old world hipparion evolution, biogeography, climatology and ecology 
    Bernor, Raymond L.; Kaya, Ferhat; Kaakinen, Anu; Saarinen, Juha; Fortelius, Mikael (2021)
    Nearly five decades ago Berggren and Van Couvering proposed an Old World "Hipparion Datum" wherein a North American Hipparion extended its range across Eurasia and Africa as an "instantaneous prochoresis" ...
  • Patterns of maximum body size evolution in Cenozoic land mammals: eco-evolutionary processes and abiotic forcing 
    Saarinen, Juha J.; Boyer, Alison G.; Brown, James H.; Costa, Daniel P.; Ernest, S. K. Morgan; Evans, Alistair R.; Fortelius, Mikael; Gittleman, John L.; Hamilton, Marcus J.; Harding, Larisa E.; Lintulaakso, Kari; Lyons, Sara K.; Okie, Jordan G.; Sibly, Richard M.; Stephens, Patrick R.; Theodor, Jessica; Uhen, Mark D.; Smith, Felisa A. (2014)
  • Richard Erskine Frere Leakey (1944–2022)

  • The Siwaliks and Neogene Evolutionary Biology in South Asia 
    Flynn, Lawrence J.; Lindsay, Everett H.; Pilbeam, David; Raza, S. M.; Morgan, Michele E.; Barry, John C.; Badgley, Catherine E.; Behrensmeyer, Anna K.; Cheema, I. U.; Rajpar, Abdul Rahim; Opdyke, Neil D. (Columbia University Press, 2013)
