| Abstract: | Ammonites are extinct molluscs belonging to Class Cephalopoda which lived during the Mesozoic Era. Their usefulness in Jurassic and Cretaceous paleontology and biostratigraphy studies has been widely proved. They have been studied by several authors worldwide to achieve information regarding their habitats and the climate of the world in past eras. A probabilistic analysis of the paleo-environmental causes that generated complex suture lines in ammonites has been made by means of coherent upper conditional previsions defined with respect to Hausdorff outer measures. In particular, studies have centered on the role of hydrostatic pressure. |
