A palaeogravity calculation based on Mantellisaurus atherfieldensis
Authors/Creators
Description
One fundamental technique to quantify palaeogravity is to compute weight against mass estimates of
ancient animals. This technique is applied to a specimen of Mantellisaurus atherfieldensis. The results
indicate that palaeogravity about 126 million years ago was approximately 0.59g based on the
Mantellisaurus atherfieldensis holotype specimen BMUK R5764.
