Double-crested cormorant skull (OUVC 10847)

3D Model

As morphologically extreme aquatic/marine birds, cormorants have emerged as major study organisms for our team. Another recent upload to MorphoSource includes OUµCT data both before and after diceCT staining, as well as an STL for 3D printing or viewing: http://bit.ly/2KbkCE7. Thanks to Joshua Krech and Emily Addams for working on getting these datasets uploaded. Scientifically, this specimen has been involved in Don Cerio’s dissertation research on the visual system and the nasal salt gland project that Emily Caggiano and other lab members have been working on.
