Abstract

In May 2016, Andrew Wass and the author recovered much of an ichthyosaur (ophthalmosaurid) skull from the foreshore of Smallmouth Sands in Weymouth, Dorset, UK. This provided an opportunity to explore the reconstruction of the skull and look into the scientific study of ichthyosaurs. Neither of us are affiliated with any university or museum and this article shows the use of improvisation or educated guess work, facilitated by the internet age of available information; it illustrates 'exploratory' research in the time-honoured tradition of independent local experts.
国内科学:一个鱼龙头骨的恢复
2016年5月,安德鲁·沃斯和作者在英国多塞特郡韦茅斯的Smallmouth Sands前海岸发现了一块鱼龙(眼龙)的大部分头骨。这为探索头骨的重建和对鱼龙的科学研究提供了机会。我们都不隶属于任何大学或博物馆,这篇文章展示了即兴创作或有根据的猜测工作的使用,由互联网时代的可用信息促进;它展示了独立的当地专家在历史悠久的传统中进行的“探索性”研究。
