Matt and I both have a giant stack of unfinished projects that we’re working on, or are supposed to be working on — some of them well over a decade old. To help myself keep track and to raise a bit of anticipation and accountability, here are mine, roughly in order of when I started them.
- Description of “The Archbishop”, a brachiosaurid from the Tendaguru Formation: SVPCA 2005 talk, SV-POW! posts, work in progress
- How little we really know about sauropod necks: SVPCA 2011 talk, preprint. Currently awaiting revision after disheartening reviews many years ago.
- Description of “Apatosaurus“ minimus, a Morrison formation sauropod with a mix of diplodocoid and macronarian characteristics (with Matt). SVPCA 2012 talk, SV-POW! posts.
- Analysis of the neck of Barosaurus (with Matt). SVPCA 2013 talk, SV-POW! posts (in part), preprint version 1, preprint version 2. Currently awaiting revision after disheartening reviews many years ago.
- BRONTOSMASH!: the apatosaurine neck-combat hypothesis (with Matt, Darren and Brian Engh). SVPCA 2015 talk, SV-POW! posts.
- Recognizing the “Supersaurus” cervical BYU 9024 as a giant Barosaurus (with Matt). SVPCA 2016 talk, SV-POW! posts (in part).
- Description of “Biconcavoposeidon”, a Morrison-formation sauropod with biconcave dorsal centra (with Matt). SVPCA 2017 poster, SV-POW! posts.
- What do we mean by “cranial” and “caudal” on a vertebra? (with Matt). 1PVC abstract, 1PVC talk, SV-POW! posts, preprint, work in progress. I thought this had been submitted and reviewed and was awaiting revision, but I may have misremembered.
- Reconstructing the history of Supersaurus. SV-POW! section, SV-POW! posts, Work in progress.
There are plenty of other lower-priority projects lurking in the background, too, but these are the main ones.
