Yara Haridy on Ordivician vertebrates and the origin of bone remodeling:
Synchrotron scanning tech really shines when used with tiny fossils such as those from jawless fish. This includes bony scales on the body of Astraspis.
Investigation shows bone remodeling predates osteocytes!

so what’s your favourite big five mass extinction? i’m into the end-ordivician, but that’s just me. i’m also such a samantha

The rocks in newfoundland were so awesome.
Cambrian Ordivician transition type series. Its in Gros Morne NP. So amazing. My 6yo found several very nice fossils on the ordivician side (which we left in place!)

I have a ordivician/devonian slate thing from the eiffel that looks a lot like the far-right rock
"office rocks" I like this concept

For those not in TAS you can see similar evidence of the break up of continents where the bottom of the Sydney Sandstone sits on top of old folded Ordivician rocks just North of Batemans Bay in NSW. Murrumarang NP. Glacial drop stones too. Nice coastal walk, or bike ride.

When Chadititan moves in with trilobyte, his old friend from college, they became the Ordivician Couple.
I just misread this as “newly divorced” and I can’t stop laughing.

what's everyone's favorite geological period? and why?
I can't pick. I love the Cambrian bc opabinia... but I love ordivician bc sacabambaspsis.. but I love devonian bc coelecanth...I think they're all my favorite

This member of the Cederberg Formation formed right after the Ordivician glaciation ended. Yet, it was still cold enough to have huge icebergs come through from melting glaviers, leaving dropstone (one is in the background) behind.

Why does my phone say red squiggle under the words ordivician and devonian. do they fucking hate earth and love and life it seems like they do.

The thing about nature, at least since perhaps the ordivician period, is that there is always a bigger fish. Need a bigger loan shark to eat your smaller loan shark.

In more light hearted history of earth:
The fish in my banner actually existed
Its a Sacabambaspis, a jawless fish from the Ordivician
He's a silly boy

So mostly unremarkable people. I have only two claims that are somewhat famous and these are almost 800 years apart; and the medieval one is so niche only a history nerd would recognize the name. Huge gaps before 1740. Oldest memory is from the Ordivician, as an ammonite or similar mollusk.

Prehistoric animal of the day
Day 7: Arandaspis was a jawless fish from the ordivician period. It is one of the earliest known vertebrates. It was about 5-6 inches long and has a rather silly face.

I'm going to fieldwork tomorrow. Since the destination is Ordivician marine sediment, so not my field, but I hope to find some good trilobites or crinoids.

Every single little piece of shale in both the Walcott quarry on Mt Burgess & across the valley on Mt Stephens has a fossil on both sides of it.
Closer perhaps, & on my fav island in the world- Newfoundland- near Cow Head, are Ordivician period fossils.
Yes am nerdy enough to plan fossil holidays.

Thinking about doing a DnD-inspired paleoclimates/mass extinction exercise for my 400-level Climatology class. Need to roll a 14 or better to survive the Ordivician-Silurian, or a Nat 20 for the Permian... need to work out the details but I think I can make it work.

[Correction: the trilobites SURVIVED the end-Ordivician mass extinction AND the Devonian extinction that followed it, but wouldn't make it through the end-Permian Extinction, aka the Great Dying. Clearly I need to eat lunch before I post answers!]
