Track sites aren't just about fossils — they're heritage. 👣 Our chapter reviews how the world's best vertebrate ichnosites are protected, and how geoconservation can do better.

🌋🌋🌋 Our new paper documents gas domes on land, in the Permian caldera of the Bolzano Supervolcano (Monte Luco), formed in association with microbial mats. A new window into ancient life.

Picture a Permian floodplain: a meandering river, fresh puddles left after a flood, microbial mats blooming in the shallows. 🌋 Our new paper in Sedimentology reconstructs exactly this at Monte Luco, from rocks, ichnofossils & modern environments.

Step into a Neanderthal's footprints on the Portuguese coast. 👣 Our paper in Scientific Reports documents Portugal's first hominin tracksites — direct traces of how they moved (AND FED!) along the shore.
