    The Largest Tropical Peat Mires in Earth History

    Geological Society of America Special Paper 370 2003 Desmoinesian coal beds of the Eastern Interior and surrounding basins: The largest tropical peat mires in Earth history Stephen F. Greb William M. Andrews Cortland F. Eble Kentucky Geological Survey, University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky 40506, USA William DiMichele Smithsonian Institution, National Museum of Natural History, Washington, D.C., USA C. Blaine Cecil U.S. Geological Survey, Reston, Virginia, USA James C. Hower Center for Applied Energy Research, University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky, USA ABSTRACT The Colchester, Springfield, and Herrin Coals of the Eastern Interior Basin are some of the most extensive coal beds in North America, if not the world. The Colchester covers an area of more than 100,000 km^, the Springfield covers 73,500-81,000 km^, and the Herrin spans 73,900 km^. Each has correlatives in the Western Interior Basin, such that their entire regional extent varies from 116,000 km^to 200,000 km^. Correlatives in the Appalachian Basin may indicate an even more widespread area of Desmoinesian peatland development, although possibly sUghtly younger in age. The Colchester Coal is thin, but the Springfield and Herrin Coals reach thicknesses in excess of 3 m. High ash yields, dominance of vitrinite macerals, and abundant lycopsids suggest that these Desmoinesian coals were deposited in topogenous (groundwater fed) to solige- nous (mixed-water source) mires. The only modern mire complexes that are as wide- spread are northern-latitude raised-bog mires, but Desmoinesian

    A Stable Isotopic Investigation of Resource Partitioning Among Neosauropod Dinosaurs of the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation

    A stable isotopic investigation of resource partitioning among neosauropod dinosaurs of the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation Benjamin T. Breeden, III SID: 110305422 [email protected] GEOL394H University of Maryland, College Park, Department of Geology 29 April 2011 Advisors: Dr. Thomas R. Holtz1, Jr., Dr. Alan Jay Kaufman1, and Dr. Matthew T. Carrano2 1: University of Maryland, College Park, Department of Geology 2: National Museum of Natural History, Department of Paleobiology ABSTRACT For more than a century, morphological studies have been used to attempt to understand the partitioning of resources in the Morrison Fauna, particularly between members of the two major clades of neosauropod (long-necked, megaherbivorous) dinosaurs: Diplodocidae and Macronaria. While it is generally accepted that most macronarians fed 3-5m above the ground, the feeding habits of diplodocids are somewhat more enigmatic; it is not clear whether diplodocids fed higher or lower than macronarians. While many studies exploring sauropod resource portioning have focused on differences in the morphologies of the two groups, few have utilized geochemical evidence. Stable isotope geochemistry has become an increasingly common and reliable means of investigating paleoecological questions, and due to the resistance of tooth enamel to diagenetic alteration, fossil teeth can provide invaluable paleoecological and behavioral data that would be otherwise unobtainable. Studies in the Ituri Rainforest in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, have shown that stable isotope ratios measured in the teeth of herbivores reflect the heights at which these animals fed in the forest due to isotopic variation in plants with height caused by differences in humidity at the forest floor and the top of the forest exposed to the atmosphere.

FcR~n~l~ O~S~RVAT][O~S upon ~EIYPERODAPEDOI~ GORDON][. By Prof. T. tI. HvxL~, F.R.S., F.G.S. (Read May 11, 1887.) [PLA~ES XXYL & XXVII.] IT is now twenty,nine years since, in describing those remains of Stagonolepis t~obertsoni from the Elgin Sandstones which enabled me to determine the reptilian nature and the crocodilian affinities of that supposed fish, I indicated the occurrence in the same beds of a Laeertilian reptile, to which I gave the name of Hyperodapedon Gordoni. I laid stress upon the " marked affinity with certain Triassic reptiles" (e. g. _Rhynchosaurus)of Hyperodapedon, and I said that these, "when taken together with the resemblance of Stagonolelois to Mesozoic Crocodilia," led me "to require the strongest stratigraphical proof before admitting the Palmozoic age of the beds in which it occurs ,' % Many Fellows of the Society will remember the prolonged dis- cussions which took place, in the course of the ensuing ten or twelve years, before the Mesozoic age of the reptiliferous sandstones of Elgin was universally admitted.

    1 Chapter 1.3. Long History of Life on Earth Chapter 1.3 Provides a Brief Overview, Mostly in Chronological Order, of the Evolut

    Chapter 1.3. Long History of Life on Earth Chapter 1.3 provides a brief overview, mostly in chronological order, of the evolution of life on Earth. Although new fascinating paleontological discoveries are made continuously and inferences based on properties of modern organisms become more and more reliable, a number of key facts about past evolution have already been firmly established. These facts provide the basis for studying modern life. Section 1.3.1 presents data on the first ~6/7 of the chronology of life, from its origin over 3.500 mya to the end of Proterozoic eon 542 mya. A number of crucial events occurred during these ancient times, including the origins of life itself, the first modern- like prokaryotes, photosynthesis, unicellular eukaryotes, multicellular eukaryotes, and a variety of animals. Early fossil record leaves a lot to be desired, and the available fossils are often hard to interpret so that combining direct and indirect data is particularly important for studying these early times. Section 1.3.2 deals with Phanerozoic eon, from 542 mya to the present. Although all large-scale clades of the Tree of Life were already present at the beginning of this eon, most of the clades of familiar and ecologically important terrestrial living beings evolved later, including land plants, insects, tetrapods, amniotes, mammals, and birds. A rather detailed fossil record of the Phanerozoic eon revealed a number of fascinating transitory forms and many episodes of diversification and extinction. Section 1.3.3 considers extant life from the perspective of its evolutionary history. Phylogenetic relationships of modern organisms, the origin of their spatial distributions, the recent changes in the environment, and the ongoing mass extinction are reviewed.
