BURLY GAITS: CENTERS OF MASS, STABILITY, AND THE TRACKWAYS OF SAUROPOD DINOSAURS (2006, background): “The recent discovery of the large, but incompletely preserved, brachiosaurid, Sauroposeidon proteles from the Early Cretaceous of Oklahoma, provides another potential Brontopodus trackway maker (Wedel and Cifelli, 2005).”
The postcranial osteology of Rapetosaurus krausei (Sauropoda: Titanosauria) from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar (2009, background): “The extreme elongation and distal tapering of pneumatized cervical ribs into thin rods is shared by derived titanosaurs including Rapetosaurus, Saltasaurus (PVL 4017, Powell, 1992), and Erketu (IGM100/1803, Ksepka and Norell, 2006), as well as with more basal Titanosauriformes (e.g., Sauropoisedon, ”
Vertebral pneumaticity, air sacs, and the physiology of sauropod dinosaurs (2003, methodology): “The presence of vertebral and pulmonary air sacs in sauropods would have increased the volume of air inside the body and further reduced body mass (Perry and Reuter 1999; Wedel et al. 2000).”
THE EVOLUTION OF VERTEBRAL PNEUMATICITY IN SAUROPOD DINOSAURS (2003, methodology): “The lateral faces of the centra and neural spines are occupied by pneumatic fossae that are larger, deeper, and more elaborate than those of basal sauropods (Wedel et al., 2000b: fig.”
The early evolution of titanosauriform sauropod dinosaurs (2012, background): “Neural spines perforated in middle cervical verte- brae (Wedel et al., 2000a).”
Sauropod dinosaur phylogeny: critique and cladistic analysis (2002, background): “Brachiosaurus, however, clearly possesses somphospondylous presacral centra (Janensch, 1947: figs 4–8; 1950: figs 70–73) as do other brachiosaurids (Sauroposeidon − Wedel et al., 2000a: 113, fig.”
The significance of Suuwassea emilieae (Dinosauria: Sauropoda) for flagellicaudatan intrarelationships and evolution (2006, background): “Node (arrows) and stem clade names from Wilson (2002) and Harris & Dodson (2004).”
Osteology of the Late Jurassic Portuguese sauropod dinosaur Lusotitan atalaiensis (Macronaria) and the evolutionary history of basal titanosauriforms (2013, background): “Amongst titanosauriform taxa, the nodes with the highest GC values include those that unite Sauroposeidon with Paluxysaurus, and Rapetosaurus with Mongolosaurus.”
