• GROWTH IN SMALL DINOSAURS AND PTEROSAURS: THE EVOLUTION OF ARCHOSAURIAN GROWTH STRATEGIES (2004, background): “2), known from the late Early Cretaceous of China and the early Late Cretaceous of Mongolia, was recently described by Erickson and Tumanova (2000) Femur length of the available specimens of P. mongoliensis ranged up to 21 cm, reflecting the typical adult size of the species, about 2 m in total…”
• Historical biogeography of scarabaeine dung beetles (2002, background): “Further studies maintain that dinosaurs, in general, grew rapidly (Padian et al., 2001) but that these rates fall between the slower rates in modern reptiles or marsupials and the faster rates in modern birds or Eutherian mammals (Erickson & Tumanova, 2000).”
• Maiasaura, a model organism for extinct vertebrate population biology: a large sample statistical assessment of growth dynamics and survivorship (2015, methodology): “We instead used the developmental mass extrapolation equation (DME) of Erickson and Tumanova (2000) (but see Myhrvold 2013).”
• The Femoral Ontogeny and Long Bone Histology of the Middle Triassic (?Late Anisian) Dinosauriform Asilisaurus kongwe and Implications for the Growth of Early Dinosaurs (2016, background): “Studies of Jurassic and Cretaceous dinosaur ontogeny are also common (e.g., Chinsamy, 1993; Varricchio, 1993; Rimblot-Baly et al., 1995; Curry, 1999; Horner et al., 1999, 2000; Erickson and Tumanova, 2000; Erickson et al., 2004; Horner and Padian, 2004).”
• EVOLUTION OF DENTAL REPLACEMENT IN MAMMALS (2004, background): “The continual replacement by larger teeth in older individuals with simultaneous lengthening of the jaws is characteristic of the indeterminate growth in many diapsids (Osborn, 1971; Westergaard and Ferguson, 1986, 1987) including dinosaurs (Erickson, 1996; Erickson and Tumanova, 2000).”
