A 44 million-year-old fossilized louse has been found with the remains of feathers in its gut, suggesting that even ancestral birds were plagued by ectoparasites. The finding also suggests that early-feathered dinosaurs may have suffered the same itchy symptoms, report paleontologists.
Artic ice formed about 45 million years ago - roughly 14 million years ahead of previous predictions - according to new research published in Nature. An international team of scientists, including Brown geologist Steven Clemens, says this startling evidence shows that glaciers formed in tandem at Earth's poles, providing important insights into global climate change.
Magnetic imprints on the sea floor can be used as timetables of such motion and they show that a major, almost worldwide alteration occurred some 44 million years ago. This is believed to have been when the main land mass of India collided with Asia.
