Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Pliocene Floras of California' is a definitive scientific exploration into the prehistoric botanical landscapes of the American West. Through the lens of paleobotany, Erling Dorf provides a meticulous analysis of fossilized plant remains discovered across various California localities, offering a window into the diverse ecosystems of the Pliocene epoch. The work meticulously documents a wide array of species, ranging from ancient redwoods to coastal shrubs, and examines how these floral assemblages reflect the shifting climates and geological transformations of the late Tertiary period.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. Delve into the fascinating world of paleobotany and the intricate history of the Lance formation in this compelling exploration of prehistoric flora. The author meticulously examines the plant life of the Lance formation, a geological treasure trove located in Wyoming's Niobrara County. This book delves into the heart of the controversy surrounding the Mesozoic-Cenozoic boundary, offering a detailed analysis of the Lance flora's composition and its implications for understanding the transition from the age of dinosaurs to the age of mammals. This book goes beyond mere description, providing a comprehensive analysis of the Lance flora's systematic relationships, quantitative distribution, and the climatic conditions that prevailed during its existence. Drawing upon comparisons with modern plant species and their climatic preferences, the author paints a vivid picture of a warm temperate to subtropical environment that supported a diverse array of plant life. The book's insights shed light on a pivotal period in Earth's history, offering a captivating glimpse into the ancient landscapes and the vegetation that thrived during the twilight of the dinosaurs. Through meticulous research and engaging prose, this work provides valuable insights into the evolution of plant life and the changing environmental conditions that shaped the planet we know today.
