Title: Inabtanin alarabia (YUPC-INAB-6-001–010) proximal left humerus micro Computed Tomography (CT) data Open Access Deposited

Methodology
  • Computed tomographic (CT) scans were performed at the University of Michigan Computed Tomography in Earth and Environmental Science facility (“CTEES”) in Ann Arbor, MI, USA., using a Nikon XT H 225ST uCT system with a 2.5-mm-thick copper filter. The scanner is equipped with a tungsten target and was autoconditioned to maximum capacity at 225 kV. Scans settings were as follows: voltage = 175 kV, current = 220 uA; exposure time = 2.83 s; voxel size, x = XXXXX mm y = XXXXX mm z = XXXXXX mm; slice dimension (in pixels), x = XXXXX, y = XXXXX; projections = optimized; frames captured/projection = 2.
Description
  • The scanned proximal left humerus is part of an associated skeleton of the pterosaur Inabtanin alarabia, accessioned to Yarmouk University (YUPC-INAB-6-001–010) in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The specimen was collected from Late Cretaceous-aged sediments near Tal Inab in south-central Jordan, which is 34 km north of the current border with Saudi Arabia. For inquiries about access, please contact Jeff Wilson Mantilla (  wilsonja@umich.edu) or Iyad Zalmout ( izalmout@ksu.edu.sa). Casts of this and other elements of Inabtanin are available at the University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology.

DESCRIPTION
The scanned proximal left humerus is part of an associated skeleton of a pterosaur accessioned to Yarmouk University (YUPC-INAB-6-001–010) in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The specimen was collected from Late Cretaceous-aged sediments near Tal Inab in south-central Jordan, which is 34 km north of the current border with Saudi Arabia. For inquiries about access, please contact Jeff Wilson Mantilla (wilsonja@umich.edu) or Iyad Zalmout (izalmout@ksu.edu.sa).

Scans settings were as follows: voltage = 175 kV, current = 220 uA; exposure time = 2.83 s; magnification = 2.841; uniform cubic voxels were 71 μm on a side; projections = optimized; frames captured/projection = 2.

FILE LIST
The data set includes a compressed stack of 1934 dicom files derived from CT imaging.
