About

Nicholas John Minter is a Reader in Analytical and Experimental Palaeontology at the University of Portsmouth, UK. His research focuses on the early colonization of the deep-sea ecosystem, animal-sediment interactions during the Cambrian explosion, and the role of bioturbators as ecosystem engineers. Recent publications include studies on trace fossils, the ecological impact of early land-dwelling animals, and the paleoenvironmental conditions of ancient habitats.
