Appendix This List Includes the 179 Fossil Localities Or Regions Reviewed in This Study Appendix This list includes the 179 fossil localities or regions reviewed in this study. For each, we include modern latitude and longitude, locality name or location, its age, primary references and the type of material (published photographs or specimens) reviewed for identification. UCMP is the University of California Museum of Paleontology; DMNH is the Denver Museum of Natural History. In notations of locality age, epoch subdivisions are abbreviated E. = early, M. = middle and L. = late. The notation “fossil specimens” under the type of material reviewed for identification indicates that we have examined the collections on which the publication was based.

Early Eocene climates were globally warm, with ice-free conditions at both poles. Early 16 Eocene polar landmasses supported extensive forest ecosystems of a primarily temperate biota, 17 but also with abundant thermophilic elements such as crocodilians, and mesothermic taxodioid 18 conifers and angiosperms. The globally warm early Eocene was punctuated by geologically brief 19 hyperthermals such as the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), culminating in the 20 Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO), during which the range of thermophilic plants such as 21 palms extended into the Arctic. Climate models have struggled to reproduce early Eocene Arctic 22 warm winters and high precipitation, with models invoking a variety of mechanisms, from 23 atmospheric CO2 levels that are unsupported by proxy evidence, to the role of an enhanced 24 hydrological cycle to reproduce winters that experienced no direct solar energy input yet remained 25 wet and above freezing.

Detailed mapping of the type area near Kamloops has resulted in its subdivision into two formations and thirteen formal and informal members. The Tranquille Formation, 0-450 metres thick, consists of lacustrine sediments which grade upward into pillowed flows, hyaloclastite breccia and aquagene tuff. The overlying Dewdrop Flats Formation, with nine members, consists of up to 1000 metres of basalt to andesite phreatic breccia, flow breccia and flat-lying flows.

Most of these finds were made in Alberta and British Columbia, but the Yukon Territory can lay claim to at least one tracksite and probably has the potential to yield more sites. The record of dinosaur tracks with skin impressions has increased dramatically, and is now represented by specimens of ankylosaurs, large ornithopods, small theropods and tyrannosauroids. Notable new finds include the first record of sauropods in Canada, evidence of herding behavior in ankylosaurs and the first pterosaur tracks in Canada. First discoveries of track specimens from several formations in western Canada include the Mountain Park Member of the Gates Formation in Alberta, and the Boulder Creek, Goodrich, Kaskapau, Cardium and Marshybank formations in northeastern British Columbia.

This study demonstrates how isotopic data can be employed alongside other forms of evidence to inform on past at great time depths, making it especially relevant to the Palaeolithic where there is a wealth of material potentially available for study.

    CONIFER DOMINANTS IN THE MIDDLE TERTIARY OF THE JOHN DAY BASIN, OREGON RALPH w. CHANEY Professor of Palaeontology, University of California, and Research Associate, Carnegie Institution o[ Washington FOREWORD _ During the past few years, most of my time has been devoted to a re-study of all URING the early weeks of 1948, the available material of Sequoia and it was my good fortune to be in Taxodium from the Cretaceous and Tertiary D daily contact with Birbal Sahni who of North America. Many of the fossil was then a visitor at the University of specimens previously assigned to these California. We had many discussions of genera are now known to represen t M eta­ Metasequoia, the conifer whose discovery sequoia. The characters by which the in Asia a few years before was proving of leaves and cones of this genus, both living such great interest to botanists and palaeo­ and fossil, may be recognized have been botanists. My departure for central China considered by Miki, Hu and Cheng, Stebbins in February to visit scattered groves of ( 1948, p. 96), and Chaney ( 1948, p. 509; this survivor from the past brought to a 1951, pp. 174-181, PL. 6).
