Atlantic Geoscience Society Abstracts 1995 Colloquium
A t l a n t ic G eo l o g y 39 ATLANTIC GEOSCIENCE SOCIETY ABSTRACTS 1995 COLLOQUIUM AND ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING ANTIGONISH, NOVA SCOTIA The 1995 Colloquium of the Atlantic Geoscience Society was held in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, on February 3 to 4, 1995. On behalf of the Society, we thank Alan Anderson, Mike Melchin, Brendan Murphy, and all others involved in the organization of this excellent meeting. In the following pages we publish the abstracts of talks and poster sessions given at the Colloquium which included special sessions on "The Geological Evolution of the Magdalen Basin: ANatmap Project" and "Energy and Environmental Research in the Atlantic Provinces", as well as contri butions of a more general aspect.

P. Rainerstrasse 11, 39038 Innichen, Italy; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The conifers built some of the dominant plant assemblages of the Early-Middle Triassic floras in the Dolomites. New discoveries, especially of their fructifications, suggest that their evolv- ing lines had to be interpreted in a new manner. -

New Mexico Geological Society Downloaded from: http://nmgs.nmt.edu/publications/guidebooks/33 Notes on the upper Paleozoic plants of central New Mexico Sidney R. Ash and William D. Tidwell, 1982, pp. 245-248 in: Albuquerque Country II, Wells, S. G.; Grambling, J. A.; Callender, J. F.; [eds.], New Mexico Geological Society 33rd Annual Fall Field Conference Guidebook, 370 p. This is one of many related papers that were included in the 1982 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

Kryptos is referred to twice to stone” probably has the longer history of the two. In fact, on the dust jacket of the U.S. version of Dan Brown’s novel a fossil cycad was placed in the tomb of the Marzabotto “The Da Vinci Code” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/kryptos, necropolis over 4000 years ago by the ancient Etruscans. It acc. 2/27/10). was accompanied by other funerary objects and thus must have had some special significance. Furthermore, it appears that the trunk of a fossil cycad may have been used by Ne- olithic people as a sharpening stone (Wieland, 1916) and thus may have “the longest known history of any fossil” (from www.plantapalm.com/vce/intro/historicalperspec- tive.htm, acc. 2/27/10). Around 1000 A.D. the Persian as- tronomer, chemist, mathematician, physicist, scientist, theologian, and philosopher Avicenna suggested “that or- ganic materials might be ‘turned into stone by a certain min- eralizing, petrifying power … and this transmutation of the bodies of animals and plants is just as short a step as the transmutation of waters. -

The Abo Formation is 278-309 m thick and can be divided into two members: (1) lower, Scholle Member, 43-75 m thick, mostly mudstone; and (2) upper, Cañon de Espinoso Member, 230-250 m thick, characterized by numerous sheet-like beds of sandstone. In the Fra Cristobal and Caballo Mountains, three complete measured sections of the Abo Formation exemplify this: Red Gap in the Fra Cristobal Mountains and Saddle Tank and McLeod Hills in the Caballo Mountains. The Abo Formation exposed in the Fra Cristobal and Caballo Mountains is a relatively uniform unit that is almost entirely mudstone (71-80% of the measured sections) and sandstone (19-27% of the measured sections).
