These rocks, transported by icebergs over 1500 years ago, confirm glacial expansion during the Late Antique Little Ice Age (LALIA). The findings shed light on past climate anomalies and serve as cruci...

Scientists Looking At Whether This Fish Is A Key Puzzle Piece To Evolutionary Transition
The fossils were found in a tangle in the 365-million-year-old Greenland rock: 20 sets of floppy limbs and fish tails thrown together by an ancient catastrophe. Paleontologists said the creatures, called Acanthostegas, were swept out of their underwater homes by a flood, then perished in a subsequent drought - though they had legs, the animals hadn...
