T. Rex Ancestors Migrated from Asia, Study Finds
A new study uses mathematical modeling and fossil evidence to conclude that Tyrannosaurus rex ancestors migrated from Asia to North America across the Bering Strait around 70 million years ago, experiencing a size increase linked to cooler climates and the extinction of competing predators.

Dinosaur Populations Thrived Before Asteroid Impact, Study Suggests
A new study using statistical modeling of the North American fossil record suggests that dinosaurs were thriving before the asteroid impact 66 million years ago, challenging previous theories of pre-existing decline; geological factors, not population changes, likely account for the apparent decreas...

Chicxulub Impact, Not Volcanism, Primarily Caused Cretaceous-Paleogene Extinction
A new study using fossil molecule analysis in North American sediments concludes that the Deccan Traps volcanism, though causing a temporary 5-degree Celsius cooling 30,000 years before the Chicxulub impact, did not cause the Cretaceous-Paleogene mass extinction; the impact was the primary cause.
