Laurussia: Life On The Ancient "Old Red Continent"
Paleocontinent Laurussia, also known as Euramerica or the "Old Red Continent," was an ancient landmass with a fascinating geological and biological history. In this video, I briefly touch on its tectonic setting and highlight some of the remarkable organisms found in its fossil deposits, such as Bothriolepis and Pterygotus.

How the First Land Plants Became Huge Trees: Early Vascular Plants and the Lycophytes
Переглядів 4744 місяці тому
This is the second part of my series on the evolutionary history of land plants. I’ll dive into the early land plants from the Rhynie chert, like Aglaophyton major, Nothia, and Horneophyton, explore the transition to vascular plants with Cooksonia. Then I move on to the rise of Lycophytes and the Carboniferous swamp forests, in which I focus particularly on Lepidodendron and Sigillaria. You can...

    Great video! There's a really interesting paper I read awhile ago that suggested that the Cryogenian glaciations may have led some algae to become more desiccation resistant, which may have helped them to adapt to terrestrial environments later on.

      You’re completely right, Metzgeriothallus sharonae is indeed from the Middle Devonian. Unfortunately, I can't correct it (for some unknown reason, only bigger channels can do that), but I’ll pin your comment for others to see. Thanks for pointing it out! :)

    Fun fact about lignin, specifically in wood. It can be welded to other wood if driven in by enough force at one time, specifically (in the application I saw it) when wooden nails are fired from a nail gun. This leads to a bond between implement and material that metal nails couldn't hope to approach.
