Deep-sea spiral fantasies

Article Abstract:

Pictures of strange, gelatinous deep-sea worms that have intrigued zoologists for a long time have hinted at the solution to an evolutionary puzzle. The reassessment of evolutionary histories of the pterobranchs and enteropneusts was prompted by the report of a collection of the first good-quality specimen of a lophenteropneust, which is supposed to be the missing link between the two groups.

High-latitude influence on the eastern equatorial Pacific climate in the early Pleistocene epoch

Article Abstract:

The alkenones from marine sediments in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean are analyzed. This is done to reconstruct sea surface temperatures and marine productivity over the past 1.8 million years.
