Mesozoic

1 But in the Mesozoic Era, it was a tropical shoreline along the Tethys Ocean, inhabited by dinosaurs and marine creatures.

2 The greatest volume of Mesozoic rocks in the basin are of Upper Cretaceous age, and that likely coincides with the period of maximum collision-related uplift of the Rockies.

3 The mass extinction of the dinosaurs and other apex predator reptiles marked the end of the Mesozoic and beginning of the Cenozoic.

4 The warm and stable climatic conditions of the ensuing Mesozoic Era promoted an explosive diversification of dinosaurs into every conceivable niche in land, air, and water.

5 Gymnosperms were the dominant phylum in Mesozoic era.

6 They dominated the landscape during the age of dinosaurs in the Mesozoic, but only a hundred or so species persisted to modern times.

7 The deposition velocity of Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic assumes unimodal pattern.

8 The authors note that future studies could expand on these preliminary results by sampling a wider variety of ancient animals from additional early Mesozoic fossil sites.

9 There are Paleozoic rocks in the central and western parts of British Columbia and Yukon, but they formed far away and did not become part of North America until the Mesozoic.

10 This might as well have been in the Mesozoic era, since life with a dog was so primitive then.

11 Liaohe basin is a rift basin developed in the Mesozoic and Cenozoic.

12 The Mesozoic era, some 250 million to 65 million years ago, wasn’t a great time to be a mammal.

13 The dominance of dinosaurs lasted until the end of the Cretaceous, the last period of the Mesozoic Era.

14 "I think what's key here is that Mesozoic food webs were more complex than we had imagined," Mallon said.

15 The Mesozoic is probably best known as the age of reptiles, most notably, the dinosaurs.

16 There’s no upside to being a dinosaur if you go extinct, but Mr. Presten discovered that by sticking around, he could become his own final vaudeville character: the press agent from the Mesozoic Era.

17 Though dinosaurs appear to have been on the menu for some early mammals, Mallon stresses that the majority of Mesozoic mammals were much more susceptible to becoming a dinosaur’s dinner than the other way around.

18 The discovery cuts against a generally accepted story that hermit behavior is a product of a period known as the Mesozoic marine revolution, Dr. Smith said.

19 Much of it depicts the world of a century or half-century ago, but compared with the Mesozoic it’s quite familiar.

20 Subduction off the coast of the western United States, which had occurred throughout the Mesozoic, had continued in the Cenozoic.
