Unusual feathers reveal the impossible balance of fossil volcanoes

Formulated feathers discovered 136 years ago are still revealing new secrets. Researchers found that the feather protect volcanic rock saved the microscopic details protected within the fossil.

The study of the team-published Today, the feathers are preserved in Zeolite in Geology, a protection regime not reported for soft tissues so far.

“Fossil feathers are usually protected in the ancient mud placed in lakes or lagones, a researcher and a university in a university release. “Fossil Vulture is protected in ash deposits, which are extremely unusual. The fossil vitoul is in analyzing the plumage, we found ourselves in an unpredictable area. These feathers are usually not as we see in other fossils.”

Rossi said in an e-mail, which found the “possible” in the fossil record “and said that the flow of volcanoes is very good to protect the temperature”.

Soft sediments at the bottom of water bodies and for this issue, such as mudsludes, can cover dead organisms, can keep them up to the trash to protect their residue in deep time. However, protection in rich minerals and volcanoes with Zeolites-aluminum and silicone are a common find in the conditions of volcanic, and one is a new finding that can express more protected fossils under the line.

The feather belonged to a vtura living in Italy 30,000 years ago. The whole body of the animal was preserved in three sizes from the eyelids of the bird from the eyelids. ERGO: A feather fossil protected from the microscopic pigment structures on the fossil’s wing.

“We are used to destroy the soft, fast-moving piroclastic currents that will destroy the soft tissues of volcanic fields (” Dawid Iurino, “, Education Coordinator and Research Coordinator and researcher.” However, these geological parameters can contain low temperature fields that can keep soft tissues. “

Indeed, the volcanic eruptions are strikingly good in maintaining the volatile and extreme conditions, the finest tissues in the correct position. Last month, the team of researchers, Pompeyi and Herkuliyevaum approved the eruption of the Italian Mount Vesuvius on Vesasden and Burying 79 brainThe body’s microscopic accounts and neurons are in a solid state.

When volcanoes erupted hot gas, ash and, of course, they often spread lava with deadly effects for life near life. The nature of the region is a sign that more well-protected fossils can lie to wait for the discovery of paleobiologists.
