Computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which involves using computers
to simulate fluid flow, is emerging as a powerful approach for
elucidating the palaeobiology of ancient organisms. Here, Imran A.
Rahman describes its applications for studying fossil echinoderms.
When properly configured, CFD simulations can be used to test
functional hypotheses in extinct species, informing on aspects such
as feeding and stability. They also show great promise for
addressing ecological questions related to the interaction between
organisms and their environment. CFD has the potential to become an
important tool in echinoderm palaeobiology over the coming years.
