H2VP: No, dinosaurs were not aquatic.
http://h2vp.blogspot.com/2012/04/no-dinosaurs-were-not-aquatic.html
Tuesday, April 3, 2012. No, dinosaurs were not aquatic. Posted by Michael Habib. Now, I'll be honest - I still think that this may have been an elaborate April Fool's Day prank, and others have suggested this as well. Even if that is true, however, it managed to dupe the BBC, which is pretty scary. A) How dinosaur limbs could otherwise have borne such weight. Up to 100 tonnes)". B) Why they would expend such a large amount of metabolic energy holding tails erect. Why" is presumably because of mobility an...

H2VP: September 2011
http://h2vp.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 20, 2011. Posted by Michael Habib. Those of you that watched episodes 3 and 4 of Dinosaur Revolution. Which aired exactly one week ago) saw the sequence focusing on the large pterodactyloid pterosaur, Anhanguera. This was one of the sequences I had the most input on, so I thought it might be fun to chat briefly about some scientific background that inspired the sequence. Parental care in pterosaurs? The sequence opens with a mother Anhanguera. Hopping in a saltatorial fashion. Ther...

H2VP: October 2012
http://h2vp.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 11, 2012. United in Los Angeles. Posted by Michael Habib. A quick update from Los Angeles. A while back we mentioned that I would be moving to LA to take a job at USC. That move occurred after the field season in New Mexico, and so both H2VP authors are now residents of Los Angeles (and USC)! I have a lot to get running and I am terribly behind the schedule I set for myself in late August, so blogging will be rare until I am caught up. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Tuesday, August 16, 2011. CT Scans of Bennettazhia. Posted by Michael Habib. Back in 2008, I had CT scans done of the humerus of Bennettazhia oregonensis. 160;I have one of the slice videos here, which I have previously only shown in talks (though they did make an appearance in two television programs). The outer, bright layer is the cortical bone (very thin). The grey areas are matrix. You can see some of the trabecular struts running through the matrix. Links to this post. Tuesday, August 9, 2011.

Monday, November 28, 2011. Skin Makes the Swimmer: Mosasaur Integument. Posted by Michael Habib. And you can find it here. Here is the abstract:. Was held somewhat rigid during swimming, thereby limiting propulsive movements to the posterior body and tail. For point that out to me years ago). In any case, that's my two cents for now. A solid paper, all around, and well worth reading. Links to this post. Thursday, November 24, 2011. Happy Thanksgiving: Microraptor ate birds. Posted by Michael Habib. The p...

H2VP: Aero Evo
http://h2vp.blogspot.com/2012/04/aero-evo.html
Saturday, April 7, 2012. Posted by Michael Habib. Just a quick note that on April 4th I launched a new blog, called Aero Evo. I will still be posting here to H2VP, of course. Aero Evo fulfills a different sort of niche. First and foremost, I will be specifically discussing animal flight - particularly the evolution of flight (as opposed to all manner of biomech topics here at H2VP). October 22, 2012 at 11:33 PM. I will still be posting here to H2VP, of course. Pass hair drug testing. So, as some of you m...

Saurian: November 2014
http://saurian.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Monday, 24 November 2014. There have been several discussions regarding certain issues raised at the meeting this year, many of which are still going on even now. Essentially they focus on the fact that this meeting gets bigger and bigger every year and it is hard to manage so many people efficiently – especially when it comes to the poster sessions and the provision of both food and liquid refreshments. The biggest debate proliferating the boards on Twitter and the DML concerns the ethics of live tweeti...
