FTIR spectra from grass pollen: A quest for species-level resolution of Poaceae and Cerealia-type pollen grains (2023)
Journal Article
Katsi, F., Kent, M. S., Jones, M., Fraser, W. T., Jardine, P. E., Eastwood, W., …Lomax, B. H. (2024). FTIR spectra from grass pollen: A quest for species-level resolution of Poaceae and Cerealia-type pollen grains. Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology, 321, Article 105039. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.revpalbo.2023.105039

Palynological analysis based on spore and pollen morphology is well established in the field of palaeo-environmental reconstruction but is currently not fully exploited for understanding the history and development of cereal cultivation due to diffic...

Journal Article
Jardine, P. E., Peng, H., Marshall, J. E. A., Lomax, B. H., Bomfleur, B., Kent, M. S., …Liu, F. (2023). Response to Comment on "Dying in the Sun: Direct evidence for elevated UV-B radiation at the end-Permian mass extinction". Science Advances, 9(34), Article eadj6309. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.adj6309

Seddon and Zimmermann have raised questions about the evidence for increased UV-B flux across the end-Permian mass extinction (EPME) that was presented in our recent study, specifically regarding the measurement of UV-B-absorbing compound (UAC) level...

Dying in the Sun: Direct evidence for elevated UV-B radiation at the end-Permian mass extinction (2023)
Journal Article
Liu, F., Peng, H., Marshall, J. E., Lomax, B. H., Bomfleur, B., Kent, M. S., …Jardine, P. E. (2023). Dying in the Sun: Direct evidence for elevated UV-B radiation at the end-Permian mass extinction. Science Advances, 9(1), Article eabo6102. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.abo6102

Land plants can adjust the concentration of protective ultraviolet B (UV-B)-absorbing compounds (UACs) in the outer wall of their reproductive propagules in response to ambient UV-B flux. To infer changes in UV-B radiation flux at Earth's surface dur... Read More about Dying in the Sun: Direct evidence for elevated UV-B radiation at the end-Permian mass extinction.
