The small mammal fauna (Marsupialia and Rodentia) from Araras ravine, a Quaternary deposit in northeastern Brazil, and their paleoclimatic significance for South American paleoenvironments
Puntos clave
The analysis indicates that the small mammal fauna reflects significant paleoclimatic changes in South America.
Key evidence includes fossil findings that provide insights into regional climate shifts during the Quaternary period.
Observational analysis of fossils was conducted within the Araras ravine to determine faunal diversity and distribution.
Understanding these changes highlights the importance of small mammals as climate indicators and their role in reconstructing past environments.
