The fossils were deposited in a swamp or lake surrounded by a very open, dry environment. According to paleontological data, 700,000 yr B.P. is a likely age for the Ternifine deposits, which is consistent with the paleomagnetic results.
evidence of freshwater influence in the sedimentary environment of this important paleontologicalsite occurring at the border between two prevailing marine units (the Schlern/Sciliar Dolostone and the Val Degano Formation). - (NF)
Four calvarial (=skull roof) bones from the Fusea vertebratebearing site (uppermost Ladinian or lowermost Carnian), near Tolmezzo (Udine Province, northeastern Italy) provide the first unambiguous record of lungfish (Dipnoi) in Italy
taxon to be added to the diverse vertebrate assemblage discovered in the Fusea site, formed by nothosauroids, cyamodontoid placodonts, protorosaurian Tanystropheus, small archosaurians, and elasmobranchian and actinopterygian fishes. These fishes provide
An exceptionally rich paleontologicalsite containing thousands of mammalian fossils and well-dated with 18 radiocarbon samples provides evidence of late-Holocene ecological response to climatic change in northern Yellostone National Park, Wyoming
les études des restes de coléoptères, collectés à 2 sites de glaciation tardive sur l'île du Cap-Breton, donnent une image du paléomilieu et du paléoclimat durant la transition de l'Allerød - Dryas récent, dans la région des Maritimes. Un indicateur

Possibility for subdividing apparently homogeneous depositional sequences by combined use of sedimentological, paleontological and mathematical methods
This study applies a number of multivariate numerical techniques in the analysis of modern and fossil pollen data for the purpose of paleovegetational reconstruction in the Tibetan Plateau. Modern pollen spectra from 227 sampling sites

important indicators of coastal displacement. Specifically, Hellenistic and Roman archaeological sites are useful markers of tectonic subsidence and thus they demonstrate localised diversions from the general pattern of uplift.

Authors present the results of a sedimentological and paleontological investigation of the Quaternary sequence of three samples collected in the vicinity of Petervására (N-Hungary). The age and origin of the samples was determined by laboratory
in this paper are based primarily on more recent geomorphic and stratigraphic data from a number of dated localities throughout the region, with a variety of supporting evidence from paleontology and archaeology.
A reconstruction of vegetation and environment in the East-Slovakian Lowland in the young Holocene is made on the basis of paleontology, palynology and archeology. A negative human settlement impact on vegetation, animals and landscape is visible
in the Great Hungarian Plain and the denudation chronology of the Hungarian Mountains are studied with the application of geological, sedimentological, stratigraphical, paleontological and geomorphological methods and various absolute dating techniques. DLO).
