Triassic Vertebrate Fossils in Arizona
The Triassic System in Arizona has yielded numerous world-class fossil specimens, including numerous type specimens. The oldest Triassic vertebrates from Arizona are footprints and (largely) temnospondyl bones from the Nonesian (Early Triassic: Spathian) Wupatki Member of the Moenkopi Formation. The Perovkan (early Anisian) faunas of the Holbrook Member of the Moenkopi Formation are exceptional...
متن کاملGroundwater Recharge Interface and Nitrate Discharge: Central Canterbury, New Zealand
Regional surveys of groundwater quality in Central Canterbury, from 1977 to the present, show widespread occurrence of nitrate contamination primarily from agricultural land use. Two reported analyses of these surveys, in 1984 and 2002, describe a general decrease of nitrate concentration with depth from the groundwater table to uncontaminated water at about 50-80 m. This high quality water is ...
متن کاملSecond Day: Early and Middle Triassic Stratigraphy, Paleontology and Correlation in Northeastern Arizona
Today’s trip traverses a nearly east-west swath of the southern Colorado Plateau in northeatern Arizona (Fig. 2.1), where the low and barren topography is developed in Permian and Triassic sedimentary rocks. Here, our focus is on the Lower-Middle Triassic Moenkopi Formation. In northern Arizona, east of Flagstaff, the Moenkopi section (Fig. 2.2) is a relatively thin (< 150 m thick) and almost e...
متن کاملFossil isopod and decapod crustaceans from the Kowai Formation (Pliocene) near Makikihi, South Canterbury, New Zealand
Small concretions and specimens embedded in the matrix have yielded a new Pliocene crustacean fauna from the Kowai Formation near Makikihi, South Canterbury, New Zealand. The fauna is relatively robust, with five identifiable taxa. Three new species are named herein, including the isopod Cirolana makikihi and the decapods Upogebia kowai and Austrohelice manneringi. one new genus and species of ...
متن کاملCompound trace fossils formed by plant and animal interactions: Quaternary of northern New Zealand and Sapelo Island, Georgia (USA)
Quaternary coastal-terrestrial deposits from Aupouri and Karikari Peninsulas, northern North Island (New Zealand), and from Sapelo Island, Georgia (USA), reveal sedimentary structures produced by plant roots that provided habitats suitable for root-sucking, deposit-feeding, burrowing, brooding and other terrestrial invertebrate activities. The structures are typically large (<1 to >2 m in lengt...
