This book was released on 2010-05-24 with total page 1650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geological Formation Names of China (1866—2000) is the only catalogue on stratigraphic nomenclature for China in the world to keep two writing types (Wade-Giles Romanization and Chinese Phonetic Alphabet) so as to provide convenience for domestic and overseas readers. The catalogue is intended for specialists and graduates in Geosciences and Stratigraphy. Shouxin Zhang (1927 —2006) was stratigrapher and research professor at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Download or read book Biostratigraphy of China written by Wen-tang Zhang and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distributed by Elsevier Science on behalf of Science Press. Biostratigraphic data are basic to geological and palaeontological research. This book presents up-to-date material and research achievements in biostratigraphy in recent decades in China, and provides a variety of knowledge to lay a solid foundation for geologists and palaeontologists worldwide. It consists of 13 chapters covering 13 major geological systems. Every chapter addresses tectonic sedimentary domains, current biostratigraphic systems, series boundaries, faunal/floral succession, evolutionary trends and bioevents, correlation of the standard columns in China with other part of the world, facies patterns, palaeobiogeography and palaeogeography. * Up-to-date and authoritative data basic to geologic research about China and all Asia * Concepts, procedures and classification follow modern international standards updated to the present * Written by leading Chinese geologists and palaeontologists

Download or read book The Jehol Fossils written by Pei-ji Chen and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2011-09-02 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No other single volume reference to the Jehol site and its fossils exists and nowhere is there such a collection of fine photos of the fossils concerned. This book has pieced together the most up-to-date information on the Jehol Biota, a place that has shown the world some of the most astonishing fossil finds including the first complete skeleton of Archaeopteryx in 1861, four-winged dinosaurs- many feathered ones, the first beaked bird, the first plants with flowers and fruits, and thousands of species of invertebrates. Authors shed new light on a number of interesting theoretical issues in evolutionary biology today, such as the origin and early evolution of some major taxonomic groups. The first two chapters give an inviting introduction to the Jehol Biota in terms of its history of study, its main components, its scientific importance, its geographical, geological and biostratigraphic framework, and its renowned fossil discoveries. Each of the remaining chapters deals with a particular organismal group of the Biota written by leading experts. The book is lavishly illustrated with nearly 280 illustrations, which include 200 photographs that show the diversity of the taxa and beauty of their preservation. The colored life restorations, elegantly done by some of China's most celebrated scientific illustrators, give a kiss of life to the dead bones. Although targeted primarily at an educated public, the book is also an invaluable source of information for students and professionals in paleontology, geology, evolutionary biology and science education in general. Authoritative introduction to an exciting, classic Mesozoic site home to many of the world's most important and best preserved fossils Clear informative text accessible to the professional and lay reader alike Over 200 high quality photographs of a wide range of extraordinary fossils Beautiful colour paintings depicting reconstructed animals and plants in lifelike landscapes Lavish, large format, high quality production

Download or read book The Ordovician Earth System written by Stanley Charles Finney and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Ordovician period is a significant chapter in Earth's history that included the great Mid-Ordovician biodiversification event, the Hirnantian glaciation, and long-term greenhouse conditions. Ordovician rocks are widespread on most continents and the recent finalization of a modern chronostratigraphic classification of the Ordovician system now facilitates high-resolution correlations that allow for integrated multidisciplinary research. The diverse papers comprising this volume address orogenesis, paleogeography, climate modeling, sedimentation, biodiversity, and isotopic excursions; together they promote an integrated view of the Ordovician earth system."--Publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first published account in forty years, this up-to-date survey of the geology of China, written by three prominent Chinese scientists, makes available to the West a vast body of information hitherto difficult to obtain, including data gleaned from many papers and unpublished reports produced in China since 1949. The core of the book is a fourteen-chapter survey of the geological history of China, from the Archaean to the Quaternary. The book also features a consideration of igneous and metamorphic rock, and concludes with a description of the geotectonics of China. This landmark volume will be an integral part of all library collections in geology.
