#Samples from higher #paleolatitudes were on average smaller, but contained #outliers with the largest #sizes, highlighting the need to analyze entire #distributions. #Lithology and #collection differences need to be accounted for when evaluating #size differences across #space (#polar #gigantism) and #time (#Lilliput #effect). Similarly, differences in #facies may affect #species #determination
