TERMS
Terms of use for CT (Computed Tomography) Data from the University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology (UMMP).
These terms may have been updated since the files were deposited (see Sec 5.2). For the most up to date version of these terms, please see:

By downloading, receiving, or otherwise accessing or using CT Data provided by the UMMP and CTEES, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use.
DESCRIPTION
The scanned proximal right 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). Casts of this and other elements of Inabtanin alarabia are available at the University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology.
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 = 183 kV, current = 200 uA; exposure time = 2.83 s; magnification = 3.507; uniform cubic voxels were 57 μm on a side; projections = optimized; frames captured/projection = 2.
FILE LIST
The data set includes a compressed stack of 2000 dicom files derived from CT imaging.
