“Bone beds represent key archives for reconstructing coastal ecosystems, yet their depositional environments are often debated. Here we present an integrated sedimentological, palaeontological, ichnological, palynological and geochemical study of the Late Triassic Niederschönthal bone bed (Belchen Member, Klettgau Formation) in northern Switzerland. The bone bed occurs as a thin, laterally discontinuous conglomeratic layer resting on […]“Bone beds represent key archives for reconstructing coastal ecosystems, yet their depositional environments are often debated.
