Sampling and faunal turnover in early Eocene mammals
(Elsevier, 1988-02-15)
Faunal turnovers in the fossil record are episodes of synchronous appearance and disapperance of species from a community, often resulting in net change in species richness. We studied the biostratigraphic record of faunal ...
An algorithm for clustering profile data and its application to near-surface ice content data from wet coastal tundra soils near Barrow, Alaska
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1984-02)
An algorithm to cluster profile data into groups that minimize the sum of the intra-group variances was applied to near-surface soil ice content data collected near Barrow, Alaska, in wet tundra terrain. When the algorithm ...
Taphonomic bias in fish diversity from cenozoic floodplain environments
(Elsevier, 1988-02-15)
The fossil record of Cenozoic floodplain fishes increases from few species in the Paleocene and Eocene to about 5-15 species per locality in the Pliocene and Pleistocene. Modern floodplain habitats usually have more than ...
Fungal hyphal dynamics in a western oregon douglas-fir stand
(Elsevier, 1983)
Total length and biomass of fungal mycelium in the soil of a young stand of second-growth Douglas-fir in the central Oregon Coast Range were estimated over 27 months with the agar-film technique. Mycelial mass was at maximum ...
Fish taphonomy and environmental inference in paleolimnology
(Elsevier, 1988-01)
The contribution of fish studies to palaeoecology generally takes the form of (1) inference from analogies in modern fish faunas and (2) fish taphonomy--the pattern of death and dispersal of bones. (1) Modern fish faunas ...
