Reassessing Paleolithic Subsistence: The Neandertal and Modern Human Foragers of Saint-Césaire
ISBN: 9781107023277 / Angielski / Twarda / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The contribution of Neandertals to the biological and cultural emergence of early modern humans remains highly debated in anthropology. Particularly controversial is the long-held view that Neandertals in Western Europe were replaced 30,000 to 40,000 years ago by early modern humans expanding out of Africa. This book contributes to this debate by exploring the diets and foraging patterns of both Neandertals and early modern humans. Eugene Morin examines the faunal remains from Saint-Cesaire in France, which contains an exceptionally long and detailed chronological sequence, as well as...

Mammoths and the Environment
ISBN: 9781107027169 / Angielski / Twarda / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The study of fossilised remains of herbivorous animals, particularly those rare findings with well-preserved gastrointestinal tracts filled with plant remains, is crucial to our understanding of the environment in which they lived. Summarizing 30 years of research, Ukraintseva presents evidence on plants once eaten by Siberia's major herbivorous mammals. The collection of pollen and plant spores from food remains sheds light on the vegetation of these ancient habitats, enabling researchers to reconstruct local floras of the time. This also promotes further insight into the causes of the...

Eocene Biodiversity: Unusual Occurrences and Rarely Sampled Habitats
ISBN: 9781461354710 / Angielski / Miękka / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Initially, this work was designed to document and study the diversification of modern mammalian groups and was quite successful and satisfying. However, as field and laboratory work continued, there began to develop a suspicion that not all of the Eocene story was being told. It became apparent that most fossil samples, especially those from the American West, were derived from similar preservational circumstances and similar depositional settings. A program was initiated to look for other potential sources of fossil samples, either from non-traditional lithologies or from geographic areas...

Protocols for Paleontological Resource Site Monitoring at Zion National Park
ISBN: 9781494421175 / Angielski / Miękka / 86 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This document describes the rationale and methods used by the National Park Service (NPS) for long-term monitoring of paleontological sites and resources at Zion National Park. The monitoring effort will collect data for key metrics representing the health of paleontological resources in Zion NP. The monitoring provides park managers with a warning of changes that are occurring, and justifies further administrative action. This narrative portion of the protocol provides background and justification for the monitoring of paleontological resources, as well as brief descriptions of data...

Paleoecology, Biostratigraphy, Paleoceanography and Taxonomy of Agglutinated Foraminifera
ISBN: 9789401054805 / Angielski / Miękka / 1017 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Agglutinated foraminifera are among the most widely distributed and abundant groups of marine meiofauna in some environments (e. g. marshes, deep-sea). They are tolerant of environmental extremes, tending to live where the evolutionarily more advanced calcareous foraminifera cannot survive. However, largely because of historical reasons, the amount of scientific effort invested in this group has been small in comparison to studies of other marine organisms. The NATO Advanced Studies Institute conference on the paleoecology, biostratigraphy, paleoceanography and taxonomy of agglutinated...

Origin and Early Evolution of the Metazoa
ISBN: 9781489924292 / Angielski / Miękka / 570 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Several years ago, we realized that the most prominent ideas that had been ex- pressed about the origin and early evolution of the Metazoa seemed to have been developed chiefly by zoologists using evidence from modern species without reference to the fossil record. Paleontologists had, in fact, put forth their own ideas but the zoological and the paleontological evidence were about the problem, seldom considered together, especially by zoologists. We believed that the paleon- tological documentation of the first Metazoa was too scattered, too obscure to Western readers, and much of it too...

The Tertiary Record of Rodents in North America
ISBN: 9781489914460 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nearly half of the known species of mammals alive today (more than 1600) are rodents or "gnawing mammals" (Nowak and Paradiso, 1983). The diversity of rodents is greater than that of any other order of mammals. Thus, it is not surprising that the fossil record of this order is extensive and fossil material of rodents from the Tertiary is known from all continents except Antarctica and Australia. The purpose of this book is to compile the published knowledge on fossil rodents from North America and present it in a way that is accessible to paleontologists and mammalogists interested in...

Ces deux dolmens temoignent d'un tres ancien "saccage" mais surtout devraient questionner... avant qu'il ne soit trop tard Cette presence devrait eveiller les curiosites mais elle ne semble pas interesser les elus, qui peuvent certes compter sur la sonorite du nom et le Monopoly...
