Quick Glance: Huge marine reptile fossils discovered by British girl and father
- A fossil jawbone found by a British girl and her father on a beach in Somerset, England belongs to a gigantic marine reptile from the Triassic Period.
- Researchers estimated that the marine reptile, named Ichthyotitan severnensis, was between 22 and 26 meters long, making it one of the largest known marine reptiles.
- Ichthyotitan was part of a family of giant ichthyosaurs called Shastasauridae and survived until a global mass extinction event about 201 million years ago.
- The discovered bone fragment, the surangular, hints at the size and bite force of the animal, emphasizing the importance of each species in the delicate fabric of life.

Quick Glance: Oil and Gas Industry Emitting Significantly Higher Methane Levels Than Reported
- A new study reveals that the oil and gas industry emits about three times the amount of climate-warming methane than government estimates show.
- Researchers used airplanes to collect nearly one million measurements of methane emissions from six domestic oil and gas production areas.
- The study found that the industry releases an average of 2.95% of the gas it produces as methane into the air, almost three times the EPA estimates.
- Despite declining methane emissions in the US, more efforts are needed to achieve global climate goals, including reducing methane emissions from the energy sector.
