Book The Fossil Vertebrates of Florida

Download or read book The Fossil Vertebrates of Florida written by Richard C. Hulbert and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hulbert's book provides the first comprehensive review of the fossil vertebrates of Florida, which has one of the richest Cenozoic fossil records of any state in the country. It will be an essential addition to the library of all professional paleontologists, students, and amateurs interested in the history of fossil vertebrates in Florida and the southeastern United States."-- Gary S. Morgan, assistant curator of paleontology, New Mexico Museum of Natural History "A wonderful mix of technical, state-of-the-art information . . . with commentary on everyday fossils that all may have experienced at one time or another. The book is both for the serious student of vertebrate paleontology and for anyone who has an interest in the fossils that may be encountered in Florida."-- David P. Whistler, curator of vertebrate paleontology, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Illustrated with hundreds of photographs and drawings, this authoritative yet readable book describes the fossil vertebrates found in Florida--many unique to the state--and summarizes more than 100 years of paleontological discoveries and research. It bridges the sometimes disconnected worlds of the professional paleontologist and the avocational collector and hobbyist. Florida has the richest vertebrate fossil record of any state east of the Mississippi, extending back 45 million years. Beginning with an introduction to vertebrate anatomy, Richard Hulbert describes the geological history of the state and the history of vertebrate life in it. He then addresses such questions as what animals lived in Florida, how they are related to one another and to living animals, when they first appeared and when many of them became extinct, what they ate, and what they tell us about past environments. All types of vertebrates are covered, including sharks and other fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. In addition to exceptionally detailed illustrations (many published for the first time), the book includes a comprehensive list of every verified fossil species ever collected in Florida. Based on the popular Plaster Jacket series of pamphlets written by renowned natural scientists and published by the Florida Paleontological Society, The Fossil Vertebrates of Florida brings information from the last 30 years into an up-to-date, greatly expanded, cohesive book form.

Book Sequence Stratigraphy of Foreland Basin Deposits

Download or read book Sequence Stratigraphy of Foreland Basin Deposits written by J. C. Van Wagoner and published by AAPG. This book was released on 1995 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir, which grew out of an Exxon-led, AAPG-sponsored field trip, discusses concepts and applications of sequence stratigraphy. Following a description and historical perspective of the terminology used, 14 papers discuss topics such as models for topset play types; the sequence stratigraphic significance of trace fossils; lateral variability in the Campanian and lower Maastrichtian of the western interior seaway; facies architecture of parasequences; controls on sequence stacking; stratigraphy of Turonian-Santonian strata; sequence, parasequence, and intraparasequence architecture of the grassy member; and high-frequency sequence stratigraphy and paleogeography of the Kenilworth member. The papers are accompanied by excellent fold-out photos and diagrams--in bandw and color. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
