General non-avian dinosaur research

Wilmsen, Fürsich, and Majidifard (2022) describe a fossil trackway from the Maastrichtian Farrokhi Formation (central Iran) made by indeterminate dinosaurs, which represents the youngest evidence of dinosaur locomotion from the Middle East.^[89]
A study on the diversity of form and function of teeth in early-diverging dinosaurs is published by Ballell, Benton & Rayfield (2022), providing evidence of a previously unrecognized functional diversity in the dentitions of early dinosaurs, and indicating that either carnivory or omnivory was the ancestral diet of dinosaurs, with obligate herbivory interpreted as a late evolutionary innovation in both Sauropodomorpha and Ornithischia.^[90]
Olsen et al. (2022) present evidence from the Late Triassic and Early Jurassic strata of the Junggar Basin (northwest China) indicating that during the early Mesozoic dinosaurs were present at arctic latitudes with freezing winter temperatures, and argue that non-avian dinosaurs were likely primitively insulated and that their insulation enabled them to survive in cold temperatures, take advantage of the rich plant resources in the colder high latitudes, and live through episodes of volcanically induced winters during the Triassic–Jurassic extinction event.^[91]
A study on the impact Early Jurassic Jenkyns Event, affecting terrestrial environments with global warming, perturbation of the carbon cycle, enhanced weathering and wildfires, on terrestrial ecosystems, including dinosaur assemblages, is published by Reolid, Ruebsam & Benton (2022);^[92] the same authors subsequently review the fossil record of Early Jurassic dinosaurs, and confirm that the Jenkyns Event was an important biotic crisis affecting dinosaurs.^[93]
A study on the ecomorphospace occupation of major megaherbivorous dinosaur clades from the Late Jurassic through to the end of the Late Cretaceous in North America is published by Wyenberg-Henzler (2022).^[94]

Description of theropod and ornithischian tracks from the Jurassic Imilchil and Isli formations (Morocco), including theropod tracks representing the ichnogenus Changpeipus (otherwise known from abundant occurrences in East Asia, and possibly indicative of faunal exchange between East Asia and northern Africa in the Middle Jurassic), is published by Klein et al. (2022).^[96]
Revision of the Early Cretaceous dinosaur assemblage from the Mogoito locality (Murtoi Formation, Transbaikalia, Russia) is published by Averianov et al.

Two trackways produced by at least two different dinosaur taxa (smaller, bipedal trackmaker, likely a theropod, and a larger trackmaker of uncertain affinities, possibly a theropod or ornithopod), representing the first records of non-avian dinosaurs from Palestine reported to date, are described from a new site located within the city of Al-Bireh and belonging to the Albian Soreq Formation by Lallensack et al. (2022).^[100]
Fragment of long bone of a dinosaur is described from the Upper Cretaceous (Santonian–Campanian) sediments near the village of Izhberda (Orenburg Oblast, Russia) by Skutschas et al. (2022), who interpret the histological features of this bone as indicative of rapid continuous growth known in large-sized dinosaurs, and interpret this finding as indicative of presence of large dinosaurs in the Southern Urals, which were not subjected to the "island effect" in spite of living on islands or on the continental margin.^[101]
A set of geochronologic data from the Campanian geological formations of North America's Western Interior Basin is presented by Ramezani et al. (2022), who consider their findings to be indicative of significant age overlap between the main fossil-bearing intervals of the Kaiparowits, Judith River, Two Medicine and Dinosaur Park formations, and interpret their findings as refuting inferences that the proposed latitudinal provinciality of the Campanian dinosaur taxa is only an artefact of age misinterpretation.^[102]
A large dinosaur tracksite preserving theropod tracks and abundant hadrosaurid tracks is described from the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) Wapiti Formation (Alberta, Canada) by Enriquez et al. (2022), who evaluate the implications of this finding for the knowledge of the paleoecology of dinosaurs known from the Wapiti Formation.^[103]
A study on the calcium isotope variability in tooth enamel of dinosaurs from the Upper Cretaceous Dinosaur Park Formation, Horseshoe Canyon Formation and Scollard Formation (Alberta, Canada), and on its implications for the knowledge of the stability of food web structure of non-avian dinosaur communities in the millions of years preceding the end of the Cretaceous, is published by Martin et al. (2022).^[104]
Tracks of probable hatchling tyrannosaurids, medium and large ornithomimids, small and medium-sized ornithopods and a small hadrosaurid, some of which might document gregarious behaviour, are described from the Campanian–Maastrichtian St. Mary River Formation (Alberta, Canada) by Henderson et al. (2022).^[105]

He et al. (2022) describe a new species of the stalicoolithid oogenus Shixingoolithus, S. qianshanensis, as the first dinosaurian record from the Upper Cretaceous Qianshan Basin (Chishan Formation) of Anhui Province, China.^[107]
Han et al. (2022) establish a high-resolution geochronological framework for the fossil-rich Late Cretaceous sedimentary sequence in the Shanyang Basin (China), and interpret the fossil material from the studied specimens as indicative of sustained low dinosaur biodiversity in the studied area between ~68.2 and ~66.4 million years ago, and of a decline in dinosaur biodiversity from the Campanian to the Maastrichtian.^[108]
Review of chemistry of the organic molecules detected in non-avian dinosaur fossils to date is published by Tahoun et al. (2022).^[109]
A study on the phylogenetic affinities of Chilesaurus diegosuarezi is published by Baron (2022).^[110]
