Combined methodologies for three-dimensional reconstruction of fossil plants preserved in siderite nodules: Stephanospermum braidwoodensis nov. sp. (Medullosales) from the Mazon Creek lagerstätte

Type: Peer Reviewed Research Paper Journal: Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology Year: 2013 Authors: Spencer ART, Hilton J, Sutton MD DOI 10.1016/j.revpalbo.2012.09.001 Abstract: A new species of Medullosan ovule from the Mazon Creek Carboniferous lagerstätte is documented using a novel combination of non-invasive X-Ray Micro-Tomography (XMT) and orientated precision sectioning based on the XMT results.  […]


Anatomical 3d X-Ray Micro Tomography reconstructions: Maximising palaeobotanical data capture through preliminary non-destructive techniques

Type: Poster Event: The Palaeontological Association Annual Meeting Year: 2010 Authors: Spencer ART, Hilton J, Sutton MD. Abstract: Over the last decade Micro-CT and X-ray Micro Tomography (XMT) have become increasingly available as an investigative tool within physical sciences. Development of scanning technology has been matched by a rise in computational power and advances in software, reducing the […]
