Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to find the relationship of palaeontology, palaeobotany and coal thickness of Taiyuan Formation during Late Carboniferous – Early Permian Period in Shanxi Province. Design/methodology/approach This paper selects three regions, namely, Baode, Xishan and Lingchuan, to analyse the distribution characteristics of palaeontology, palaeobotany and variation of coal thickness. Findings It was found that in a certain period of geological history, palaeontology and palaeobotany play a dominant role in shaping of a coal-bearing basin. Coal seam thickness changes largely from the northwest to the southeast, gradually thinning in Taiyuan Formation. Originality/value Palaeontology and palaeobotany play a dominant role in the shaping of a coal-bearing basin.

Abstract:
Museums, whether national or local, have a variety of roles and thus have diverse and sometimes conflicting pressure put on their resources. For many local museums, the provision of public displays is their most important role (Waterston 1979), since either directly or indirectly (e.g. the spin-offs of tourism) this is for the immediate benefit of their main paymaster, the ratepayer. As was cogently argued by Waterston, however, they can have another important role, which is to store specimens for academic research (see also Bassett 1979). Such material may have a national or even international importance and may thus have a greater long-term significance than the public displays.

Abstract:
Władysław Szafer (1886–1970) was one of the notable Polish botanists of the first half of the 20th c., palaeobotany being one of his main fields of interest, cultivated for over 60 years. Initially, he studied Quaternary floras and later on he expanded his interests to the Tertiary (Neogene) floras at the end of the 1930s. He published at least 80 different books and papers on palaeobotany, many of which still having scientific, not only historical, value. His organizational, teaching and editing activities in the field of palaeobotany were also remarkable, and influenced strongly the science in Poland. He contributed to the fast development of this field of knowledge in Poland, both in terms of research and in terms of staff number. 50 years after his death, we summarize the results of Władysław Szafer’s activity in palaeobotany.

Abstract:
The paper is based on megafossil records of which the angiosperms provide the bulk of data and are represented by various plant parts such as roots, woods, leaves, fruits, flowers, etc. The modern flora of India is one of the richest and diverse floras of the world. The roots of extant flora of India can be traced back to base of the Palaeocene or just below the K/Pg boundary. The development or history of primarily Cenozoic flora in India can be divided into three periods, viz., (i) Pre-Sahni Period (1782-1920), (ii) Prof. Sahni's Period (1920-1949) and (iii) Post-Sahni Period (1950 onwards). The first period can be called as the age of colonial or pioneer explorers. It was a period when Cenozoic plant fossils were largely collected as curios and were purely viewed with a geological bias. The second period was the most momentous period in the history of Indian Palaeobotany in general and Cenozoic Palaeobotany in particular. It began with the return of Prof. Birbal Sahni in 1920 from Cambridge, when he took stock of the existing position of Palaeobotany in India and eventually laid the foundation of Indian Palaeobotany. During the third period, Indian Palaeobotany made far reaching progress in all spheres. A large amount of data was accumulated and synthesized for the proper evaluation of the Cenozoic flora. However, many problems are still to be tackled and neglected aspects of the flora need to be looked into to get fuller picture of the Cenozoic flora.

Full text
Abstract:
Dicynodonts were non-mammalian herbivorous therapsids (mammal-like reptiles) that flourished world-wide during the Permian and Triassic Periods. They are nowhere more abundant than in the rock strata of the Karoo basin in South Afiica. Taphonomy, the transition from biosphere to lithosphere, is of great geological and biological significance and has provided remarkable insight into palaeoenvironments. A partially articulated dicynodont that has been fossilised alongside an unidentified predator tooth shows evidence of predation and is analysed here. The dicynodont is possibly Oudenodon grandis and was most likely drowned after which it was scavenged from by a gorgonopsian predator, Aelurognathus. The fossil is important as it provides further insight into the ecology of the Late Permian and it enhances our taphonomic understanding.

Full text
Abstract:
The "desertification" debate surrounding the Karoo Biome of South Africa has recently inspired much research in this region. The preservation of pollen in middens in arid environments from different parts of the world has great potential for the reconstruction of past vegetation. A lodge of the bush karoo rat (Otomys unisulcatus) was excavated near Prince Albert, South Africa, and the high numbers of well-preserved pollen grains was analysed. The vegetation reconstruction suggested that there was a decline in grasses over the whole sequence, while the vegetation experienced several short-term fluctuations throughout the time period. The ages within the lodge were uncertain, although the material is likely to be modern. The palynological analysis appear to be reliable and corresponds relatively well with other studies. The lodges of these species could therefore provide an exciting new source of historical pollen in the arid regions of southern Africa.

Abstract:
This study presents a detailed palynological investigation of Middle Pleistocene interglacial sediments from the North Sea. A borehole and three vibrocores from the Inner Silver Pit area of the southern North Sea, and a borehole from the Devil's Hole area of the central North Sea, have been investigated. The palynological investigation has been supplemented by micropalaeontological and sedimentological analyses and also by seismic data. The sequence recovered in borehole 81/52A from the Inner Silver Pit presents a depositional record from the mid-Anglian to the Wolstonian glacial stage. Glacigenic sediments overlying Cretaceous Chalk correlate with the Lowestoft Till (Anglian). The depositional history of the interglacial cycle indicates that during the pre-temperate substage extensive erosional activity occurred in coastal areas causing a large proportion of reworked pollen and a very low amount of contemporaneous pollen to be deposited. The sequence preserves a good vegetational record of the early-temperate (HoII), late-temperate (HoIII) and post-temperate (HoIV) substages. The pollen assemblages representing HoIlI and HolV are very similar to the pollen assemblages of these substages from Marks Tey, Essex. The pollen assemblage representing HoII is different from Marks Tey in having a high proportion of Picea; as such it shows similarity with the pollen assemblages found at Nechells, Birmingham. The sequence of the sands and gravels can be correlated with the Wolstonian sands and gravels at Tottenhill in the Nar Valley, North Norfolk and with Saalian sediments in the Dutch sector of the North Sea. Three vibrocores, 53/00/962, /1103 and /1104, from the Inner Silver Pit area provide additional data and represent various parts of the Hoxnian interglacial stage. Pollen data from borehole 81/34 from the Devil's Hole area suggests that the sequence representing the Ling Bank Formation does not represent a single interglacial stage but rather two interglacial stages (separated by a cold stage) within the Cromerian Complex.

Full text
Abstract:
Palaeobotany illuminates past environments by relating the fossilised species to the existing geological conditions. This has previously been done with fossilised leaves and spores but not with fossilised wood. The recovery of a significant quantity of wood from an area of Tertiary sediments in New South Wales, enabled the used of fossilised wood as a palaeoenvironmental tool. Tertiary sedimentary deposits of south eastern Australia are diverse lithologically, occupy distinct areas and are limited in vertical and horizontal extent. However, samples in museum collections together with samples from field work and descriptions of fossil wood from previous researchers enabled an analysis of the fossil wood. The geological and palaeontological aspects of the fossil wood were considered for each specimen. Only specimens with precise information concerning location and description of the sedimentary deposits in which the specimens were found were investigated. Lithology, sedimentary structures and the relationship with surrounding geological units were also considered. The samples were then classified and identified. It was possible to identify fossil wood to Family level by comparison with existing taxa. In the majority of cases, identification to species level was not possible due to the lack of detail in the specimen and because features such as colour cannot be used with fossilised specimens. With Australian fossilised wood, a systematic nomenclature based on structure observed within the palaeotaxa, would be more relevant. Comparisons of cell structures with previous work on palaeoenvironmental indicators was found to be possible. Fossil wood has two uses. Firstly, as a local environmental indicator, usually in conjunction with sedimentological data, assessing the rate and direction of water flow, types of depositional environments and localised floral assemblages. Secondly, as an indicator of regional climate. Within any one particular time period, comparisons between the cellular structures of wood found in different parts of south eastern Australia show gross changes in cell size, mean growth ring size and vessel size, which enabled generalisations about climate for each epoch in the Tertiary. Palaeoclimatic indicators from the wood concurred with previous climatic interpretations based on palynology and sedimentology. Cool conditions during the Palaeocene were clearly indicated by small cells and small growth rings which gradually increased throughout the remainder of the Tertiary. Several areas e.g., Dargo High Plains, where cold conditions existed in isolation could be clearly distinguished. This corresponds with the gradual northward movement of the Australian plate with consequent increasing temperatures on the mainland.
