Book Description
Paleontology of the Upper Eocene Florissant Formation, Colorado
Author: Herbert William Meyer
Publisher: Geological Society of America
ISBN: 081372435X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
The Florissant formation's fossil beds and petrified forest are interesting in themselves but also shed light on questions of paleoecology, macroevolution, and taphonomy (the study of the process of fossilization). Meyer (National Park Service. Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, Colorado) and Smith (U. of Colorado Museum of Natural History--Paleontology/geological sciences, UC, Boulder) introduce 11 papers examining Florissant fossil flora, fauna, mineralogy and geochemistry through different periods and via a model of the role of microbial mats in its preservation. An integrated database/Web site to further related research is also discussed. The monograph is well-illustrated with geologic maps and images of historical figures in the field and specimens, but is not indexed.

Field Trips in the Southern Rocky Mountains, USA
Author: Eric P. Nelson
Publisher: Geological Society of America
ISBN: 0813700051
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
The theme of the 2004 GSA Annual Meeting and Exposition, “Geoscience in a Changing World,” covers both new and traditional areas of the earth sciences. The Front Range of the Rocky Mountains and the High Plains preserve an outstanding record of geological processes from Precambrian through Quaternary times, and thus serve as excellent educational exhibits for the meeting. With energy and mineral resources, geological hazards, water issues, geoarchaeological sites, and famous dinosaur fossil sites, the Front Range and adjacent High Plains region provide ample opportunities for field trips focusing on our changing world. The chapters in this field guide all contain technical content as well as a field trip log describing field trip routes and stops. Of the 25 field trips offered at the Meeting, 14 are described in this guidebook, covering a wide variety of geoscience disciplines, with chapters on tectonics (Precambrian and Laramide), stratigraphy and paleoenvironments (e.g., early Paleozoic environments, Jurassic eolian environments, the K-T boundary, the famous Oligocene Florissant fossil beds), economic deposits (coal and molybdenum), geological hazards, and geoarchaeology.

Book Description
Excerpt from Contribution to the Fossil Flora of Florissant, Colorado The plants found at Florissant belong to the Tertiary period and to that division known as the Green River group. The shales in which the fossil plants occur are composed of vol canio sand and ash, and are mostly drab, light-gray or light brown in color. Some of the plants have been beautifully preserved.
