A finer record of biodiversity We have pressing, human-generated reasons to explore the influence environmental change on biodiversity. Looking into past can not only inform our understanding this relationship but also help us understand current change. Paleontological records depend fossil availability and predictive modeling, however, thus tend give a picture with large temporal jumps, millions years wide. Such scale makes it difficult truly action forces ecological processes. Enabled by...
Robustness is a crucially important issue in watermarking. against geometric distortion and JPEG compression at the same time with blind extraction remains especially challenging. A discrete wavelet transform-discrete Fourier transform (DWT-DFT) composite image watermarking algorithm that robust both affine transformation proposed. The improves robustness by using new embedding strategy, watermark structure, 2D interleaving, synchronization technique. spread-spectrum-based informative...
Abstract Identification of fossil species is crucial to evolutionary studies. Recent advances from deep learning have shown promising prospects in image identification. However, the quantity and quality labelled images are often limited due preservation, conditioned sampling expensive inconsistent label annotation by domain experts, which pose great challenges training learning‐based classification models. To address these challenges, we follow idea wisdom crowds propose a multiview ensemble...
Abstract: In Southwest China, Gondwana‐affinity Permo‐Carboniferous deposits are known to occur in the Northern Himalayas, Lhasa Block and South Qiangtang Block, Baoshan Tengchong Bock. The three‐fold clastic successions, namely diamictite–pebbly mudstone–dark mudstone shale commonly interpreted as representing of glacial–deglacial–post‐glacial periods marine environments. Deposits, for example, Dingjiazhai Formation Kongshuhe Yongzhu Group Poindo all succeeded by carbonate deposits. This...
Two Permian fusulinid faunas, including nine species belonging to six genera, from the northern Tengchong Block, Southwest China, are studied and compared with coeval faunas other blocks Gondwana-affinity South China. in Kongshuhe section, fauna is dominated by Eoparafusulina lower part of Dadongchang Formation possibly suggests an age Sakmarian, while Shanmutang middle mainly consists Chusenella mingguangensis n. sp. Monodiexodina gigas sp., indicating a Wordian Capitanian age. Study has...
New fusulinid collections from the Baoshan Block in southwest China necessitate paleobiogeographic reevaluation of Mid-Permian fusulinids this region. From Xiaoxinzhai Section southern Block, 32 species nine genera are described and illustrated. Among them, Eopolydiexodina parva is a new species, elements Neoschwagerinidae Verbeekinidae confirmed. The studied ascendingly grouped into three biozones: Schwagerina yunnanensis Range Zone, Abundance Sumatrina annae Zone. lower two could be...
Early Permian fusulinids from both northern and southern parts of the Baoshan Block (western Yunnan, Southwest China) are illustrated compared with coeval fusulinid faunas other peri-Gondwana areas to disclose paleogeographic information. Systematic study collected materials examination published data Dingjiazhai area, Block, show that there include Eoparafusulina pseudosimplex Pseudofusulina macilenta. Fusulinids Aluotian Section, consist P. minitumidiscula n. sp., macilenta, tumidiscula,...
Abstract New samples of fusulinids collected in the Tengchong Block, western Yunnan, China, are systematically studied and presented here. The fusulinid fauna from Xishancun section Shanmutang area is dominated by Chusenella Nankinella , whereas that Shuangheyan composed mainly Schwagerina . Both faunas dated as Roadian–Capitanian (middle Permian). These new findings integrated with taxa reported earlier block to demonstrate taxonomic features paleogeographic significance Permian fusulinids....
Stratigraphic knowledge, the cornerstone of geoscience, needs to be represented by Knowledge Graph based upon ontology, in order apply state-of-the-art big-data techniques. This study aims comprehensively construct ontologies for stratigraphic domain. has been achieved a federated, crowd intelligence-based collaboration among domain experts major subdisciplines. The initial step is enumerate key terms from authoritative references and incorporate them into Geoscience Professional Graphs...
Abstract Fusulinid foraminifera are among the most common microfossils of Late Palaeozoic and act as key fossils for stratigraphic correlation, paleogeographic paleoenvironmental indication, evolutionary studies marine life. Accurate efficient identification forms basis such research involving fusulinids but is limited by lack digitized image datasets. This article presents first large dataset containing 2,400 images individual samples subjected to 16 genera all six fusulinid families...
Abstract A newly discovered Verbeekina assemblage from the Xiaoxinzhai Section in Baoshan Block western Yunnan, China, provides additional data for better understanding fusulinid biostratigraphy and thermal condition of middle Permian (Guadalupian) seawater this block. This comprises 11 species six genera, including , Pseudodoliolina Sumatrina Yangchienia Xiaoxinzhaiella ? Rugosochusenella . The age is considered to be Midian (approximately Capitanian), based on combined evidence...
