    Evidence from Charcoal of Fire Regimes in the Cretaceous of Alberta, Canada

    Pedo-anthracology and Pre-Quaternary charcoal Evidence from charcoal of fire regimes in the Cretaceous of Alberta, Canada Sarah A. E. Brown1, Andrew C. Scott1, Margaret E. Collinson1 and Dennis Braman2 1 Department of Earth Sciences, Royal Holloway University of London, Egham, Surrey, TW20 0EX, U.K; [email protected] 2 Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, Midland Provincial Park, P.O. Box 7500, Drumheller, Alberta T05 0Y0, Canada; [email protected] Summary: Charcoal is recorded from late Cretaceous sediments of Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta, Canada and represents the first documented observations of charcoal at this locality despite over one hundred years of research. Abundant charcoal deposits have been recorded throughout the 1.7 million year sediment sequence indicating multiple fire events within this locality. Fire appears to be a major influencing factor within this Cretaceous ecosystem and may have affected the life of the inhabiting dinosaurs. The occurrence of charcoal allows reconstruction of the burned vegetation at multiple locations within Dinosaur Provincial Park. The charcoal assemblage is comprised of gymnosperm wood only, which may be a reasonable representation of the local vegetation; however it could be the result of a taphonomic bias. The absence of additional plant types within the charcoal assemblage may also be due to certain species being preferentially burnt owing to a more fire prone nature. Key words: wildfire, charcoal, gymnosperm, wood, Cretaceous INTRODUCTION Fire plays a major role in modern ecosystems, greatly influencing plant communities (Bowman et al., 2009). The anatomical preservation of charcoal makes it a highly useful tool that allows reconstruction of plants, and therefore the vegetation of specific localities.
