I read a paper, Oxygen and animal evolution: Did a rise of atmospheric oxygen trigger the origin of animals? by Daniel B. Mills and Donald E. Canfield, BioEssays, Volume 36 (12) - Dec 1, 2014
I can’t find a good, free, PDF of this one, mateys.
The Morrison Museum of Natural History makes a good pair with a visit to Denver area Dinosaur Ridge.
