Macroevolutionary patterns in the evolutionary radiation of archosaurs (Tetrapoda: Diapsida) (2010, neutral): “Taxon ages are based on the Gradstein et al .”
Morphospace occupation in thalattosuchian crocodylomorphs: skull shape variation, species delineation and temporal patterns (2009, background): “The transgression peaked in the Harpoceras serpentinum zone (=former H. falciferum zone: Gradstein et al. 2004) and the Hildoceras bifrons zone, two major ammonite zones of the Toarcian where there is an explosion in teleosaurid diversity (Mueller-Töwe 2006; ‘Toarcian’ in Text-fig.”
for the Fish Canyon sanidine standard, and improved accuracy for 40 Ar/ 39 Ar geochronology (2010, methodology): “…used Cenozoic time scales (e.g., Cande 1 All uncertainties herein are expressed at the level of one standard deviation or 68% confidence. and Kent, 1995; Aguilar et al., 1996; Gradstein et al., 2004) are calibrated almost exclusively by this method whereas U–Pb data are favored in the pre-Mesozoic.”
L‐chondrite asteroid breakup tied to Ordovician meteorite shower by multiple isochron 40Ar‐39 Ar dating (2007, methodology): “Adding the K decay constant uncertainty of 0.7% (M. Villeneuve in Gradstein et al. 2004) yields an overall error of 5.8 Myr (see Table 2 and the Samples and Experimental Procedures section).”
Dating the molecular clock in fungi – how close are we? (2010, background): “The oldest convincing basidiomycete fossils are of clamp connections from a Carboniferous coal ball (Pennsylvanian age, 299–318 Ma (Gradstein et al., 2004)), which are far younger than even the minimum age of Ascomycota at 452 Ma. Finding older clamp connections, or finding a pattern towards…”
The More the Merrier? A Large Cladistic Analysis of Mysticetes, and Comments on the Transition from Teeth to Baleen (2011, positive): “Stratigraphic durations and terminology were based on Gradstein et al. (2004).”
