Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Mesozoic and Cenozoic Paleontology of California The following paragraphs, copied from Professor Whitney's preface to Vol. II, Paleontology of California, pp. Xiii and xiv, give a concise account of those formations in accordance with Mr. Gabb's later views and as they were finally adopted by the State survey.

This book was released on 2003-08-29 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most geologically complex and diverse states, California spent much of the age of dinosaurs under water. While most of the fossils found in the state are those of reptiles that lived in the sea (thalattosaurs, ichthyosaurs, mosasaurs, plesiosaurs, and turtles), some are those of birds and pterosaurs that soared above it. Other fossils come from terrestrial animals that died and were washed into the ocean. These include turtles, crocodiles, lizards, and dinosaurs such as armored ankylosaurs, duck-billed hadrosaurs, and a variety of carnivorous dinosaurs. Richard Hilton is the first to tell the unsung story of the dinosaurs and reptiles of land, sea, and sky that lived in California and Baja California during the Mesozoic era (245 million-65 million years ago), in addition to the history of their discovery. Vibrantly illustrated with more than three hundred photographs, paintings, and drawings, this book provides geological and environmental details, describes the significance of the major fossils, and chronicles the adventures involved in the discovery, preparation, and publishing of the finds. Hilton also includes accounts of the scientists, teachers, students, ranchers, and weekend fossil hunters who endured (and continue to endure) harsh weather, fires, wild animals, and the usual challenges of fieldwork to collect fossil remains and make major discoveries. These enthusiasts managed to safeguard an abundance of fossil resources, some of which would otherwise have been destroyed by quarrying, paving, and housing developments. Dinosaurs and Other Mesozoic Reptiles of California takes this legacy one step further by documenting information about the fossils and their finders in accessible prose and vivid artistic renderings, creating a valuable contribution to our understanding of California’s prehistoric past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Californian Fossils: Parts II, III, IV, and V The palaeontology of California differs from that of the States north Of the Potomac and Ohio Rivers in the existence Of more Of the Neozoic formations (including Miocene, Pliocene, and Quaternary) than those Of older date, Showing that the elevation of this coast above the ocean was chiefly since the Mesozoic ages, and much Of it took place as late as the Quaternary, or a little before the era of man. The consequence Of this late uplift is that nearly all the coast ranges and the low foothills of the Sierra are covered by strata, in some places thousands of feet thick, and often containing solid beds Of fossils several feet thick, Of which the greater part are identical with living Species, besides others, Of forms similar to those now living farther north or south, but extinct on this part of the coast.

Download or read book The Trace Fossil Record of Major Evolutionary Events written by M. Gabriela Mángano and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-17 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses major evolutionary changes that took place during the Mesozoic and the Cenozoic. These include discussions on major evolutionary radiations and ecological innovations on land and at sea, such as the Mesozoic marine revolution, the Mesozoic radiation of vertebrates, the Mesozoic lacustrine revolution, the Cenozoic radiation of mammals, the evolution of paleosol biotas, and the evolution of hominins. The roles of mass extinctions at the end of the Triassic and at the end of the Cretaceous are assessed. This volume set provides innovative reviews of the major evolutionary events in the history of life from an ichnologic perspective. Because the long temporal range of trace fossils has been commonly emphasized, biogenic structures have been traditionally overlooked in macroevolution. However, comparisons of ichnofaunas through geologic time do reveal the changing ecology of organism-substrate interactions. The use of trace fossils in evolutionary paleoecology represents a new trend that is opening a window for our understanding of major evolutionary radiations and mass extinctions. Trace fossils provide crucial evidence for the recognition of spatial and temporal patterns and processes associated with paleoecologic breakthroughs.
