Variation and diversity in Homo erectus: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the temporal bone.
Although the level of taxonomic diversity within the fossil hominin species Homo erectus (sensu lato) is continually debated, there have been relatively few studies aiming to quantify the morphology of this species. Instead, most researchers have relied on qualitative descriptions or the evaluation of nonmetric characters, which in many cases display continuous variation. Also, only a few studi...
متن کاملStudying Developmental Variation with Geometric Morphometric Image Analysis (GMIA)
The ways in which embryo development can vary across individuals of a population determine how genetic variation translates into adult phenotypic variation. The study of developmental variation has been hampered by the lack of quantitative methods for the joint analysis of embryo shape and the spatial distribution of cellular activity within the developing embryo geometry. By drawing from the s...

متن کاملA global distributed basin morphometric dataset
Basin morphometry is vital information for relating storms to hydrologic hazards, such as landslides and floods. In this paper we present the first comprehensive global dataset of distributed basin morphometry at 30 arc seconds resolution. The dataset includes nine prime morphometric variables; in addition we present formulas for generating twenty-one additional morphometric variables based on ...

— Many authors have criticized the use of subspecies, but most of this criticism has been directed at the inconsistent treatment of subspecies rather than the inutility of diagnosable populations. To assess the validity of a taxon, one must include in the analysis those characters used in the original diagnosis and remember that different character sets may lack geographic concordance. We exami...
