He applied many taphonomic principles in his field work during a paleontological expedition to the Gobi desert in Mongolia.

However, the complexity of a bonebed's geologic and taphonomic history can only allow for rough estimates.
13.
Geologic and taphonomic characteristics indicate a short transport distance for the bone accumulation ( Richmond and Morris, 1999 ).
14.
Casts of skeletons were also produced, to replace the original bones after taphonomic study, scientific documentation and excavation.

Preliminary paleoecologic and taphonomic observations on the vertebrate fauna of the Wayan Formation ( Albian-Cenomanian ) of east Idaho.
16.
Taphonomic change in fish skeletons from Blombos Cave have been interpreted as capture of live fish, clearly an intentional human behavior.
17.
Most of these invalid species were incorrectly identified as distinct due to taphonomic differences as well as ontogenetic change and sexual dimorphism.
18.
The antennae are long with 11 taphonomic process ( the transition of a decaying organism over time and how it becomes fossilised ).
19.
Archaeologists study taphonomic processes in order to determine how plant and animal ( including human ) remains accumulate and differentially preserve within archaeological sites.
20.
Some " Volborthella " specimens do show taphonomic hints that some form of lightly mineralised sheath may have enclosed its agglutinated shell.
