Until now, experts have explained these changes with climatic upheavals, rising sea levels or the consequences of the meteorite impact on the Mexican peninsula of Yucat\u00e1n around 66 million years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But palaeontologist Luke Weaver from the University of Michigan and his research team are pursuing a different line of inquiry. Together with Tom Tobin (University of Alabama) and Courtney Sprain (University of Florida), he has come to the conclusion that the sheer weight and movements of dinosaurs may have played a decisive role in how rivers and forests developed during the Cretaceous period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Many dinosaurs weighed several tonnes \u2013 even smaller species weighed around a tonne,\u2019 explains Weaver. \u2018Simply by constantly wandering around, they probably prevented dense forest growth and kept large, open areas clear.\u2019 This likely created wide, flat landscapes where water often collected and overflowed its banks unhindered \u2013 ideal conditions for dynamic, constantly changing river systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_giants_disappear_%E2%80%93_and_forests_grow\"><\/span>When giants disappear \u2013 and forests grow<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The sudden extinction of the dinosaurs dramatically altered this balance. Without the constant disturbance caused by heavy herbivores and predators, forests were able to spread unhindered. Dense vegetation in turn led to rivers becoming more stable: sediments were deposited more heavily, sandbanks formed, and wide meander belts developed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the study, which was published in the journal Communications Earth &amp; Environment, these changes can be clearly seen in the rock strata at the transition from the Cretaceous to the Palaeogene period \u2013 an era formerly known as the Tertiary period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Evidence_in_the_rock\"><\/span>Evidence in the rock<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Among other areas, the Williston Basin, which stretches from eastern Montana to South Dakota, was examined. There, the researchers encountered coloured sediment layers that had long been interpreted as deposits from ponds following a rise in sea level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018But the structure of these layers is more like the interior of a large river meander,\u2019 says Weaver. The researchers analysed a distinctive reddish clay layer located precisely at the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary \u2013 the boundary at which the meteorite impact occurred. In this layer, they found the characteristic iridium anomaly, a chemical signal that indicates the event worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result: at this very spot, the rock formations changed \u2013 from swampy, poorly developed soils to clearly structured river deposits. For the researchers, this is clear evidence that the landscapes only took on their present form after the disappearance of the dinosaurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Life_shapes_landscape\"><\/span>Life shapes landscape<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For Weaver and his team, this is a strong argument that dinosaurs were more than just part of their environment; they actively shaped it. \u2018These animals were the landscape architects of their time,\u2019 says the researcher. \u2018It was only after they disappeared that dense forests and stable rivers were able to flourish.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Geoscientist Sprain also emphasises the importance of this finding: \u2018Changes in the environment are often explained solely by climate fluctuations. In doing so, we forget that life itself \u2013 animals, plants, entire ecosystems \u2013 can have a massive impact on the landscape.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lessons_for_the_present\"><\/span>Lessons for the present<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The study not only provides new insights into the Earth&#8217;s prehistory, but also serves as a warning for the future. The extinction of the dinosaurs led to a fundamental transformation of ecosystems. Similarly profound changes could also threaten us today, triggered by man-made climate change and the loss of biodiversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018The extinction of the dinosaurs shows how closely life and landscape are intertwined,\u2019 says Weaver. \u2018When we lose species, we inevitably change the Earth itself.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The researchers suspect that similar geological patterns can be found not only in North America, but worldwide \u2013 an indication that dinosaurs were indeed the first great landscape architects of our planet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New study shows: Prehistoric giants were probably the first landscape architects on Earth.
