Extractions: Paleobotany-related links History of the Paleobotanical Section of BSA "The Paleobotanical Section of Botanical Society of America is the oldest organization of Paleobotanists in the world. The founding father of the Section in the years of 1934-1936 was Loren C. Perry, then of Cornell University. Paleobotanical contributions at the Botanical Society of America's meetings had customarily been presented before the General Section. Professor Perry initiated discussions of forming a formal organization of the Paleobotany Section. The idea was enhanced by the visit to the U.S.A. of Dr. H. Hamshaw Thomas during the Pittsburgh meeting of the Botanical Society. The Botanical Society Council minutes for the 30th Annual Meeting, at Washington University, St. Louis, December 31, 1935 - January 2, 1936, include an item: 'The Secretary reported a movement on the part of several of the younger members interested in paleobotany to ask for the formation of a paleobotanical section. The Council informally expressed its hearty approval of such action.' The minutes for the corresponding meeting at Atlantic City, December 29-31, 1936, include an item:'The Secretary reported plans for the organization of a Paleobotanical Section of the Society. The Council voted its approval of the proposal to organize such a Section.'

Tane is the lifegiver - all living creatures are his children (Department of Conservation sign at the tree).

http://www.colby.edu/~ragastal/Paleobot.htm

Extractions: A Brief Introduction to PALEOBOTANY Although most of the "green things" that populate our oceans and continents don't have the ability to move about and, hence, grab out attention, the world's biota couldn't exist without these organisms. The Plant Kingdom is the base of Earth's food chain and, as such, is the foundation for all life as we know it today, in the recent past, and in the deep past. That's not to say that today's biota is exactly like that of the past. Indeed, there have been dramatic changes in the base of the food chain since its first appearance. Documentation of these changes and understanding the reasons for these changes is only part of what Paleobotany - the study of fossil plants sensu latu (in the broad sense) - attempts to do. Those scientists who actively pursue study of these seemingly "uninteresting" organisms have devised several approaches to examine life's history that can be separated into two broad categories TRADITIONAL and INTEGRATIVE APPROACHES. Traditional approaches follow methodologies established during and immediately after the Renaissance, while Integrative approaches are based upon methodologies that could only be established following advances in technology of the 20 th Century. Advances in analytical techniques in the next several decades will, once again, change the way in which we approach this and other disciplines but, the traditional approaches will remain basic to all avenues of research. If you don't know how it was preserved, what it is, how it is constructed, and what is its life cycle, you can't take the organism(s) and use it with any amount of credibility for more synthetic approaches in our desire to develop local, regional, and global models of how Earth works.

Wolfe and David L. Dilcher, will be held in Gainesville, Florida, USA, March 12-15, 2006. These two paleobotanists, born on the same day in 1936, have greatly influenced Cretaceous and Cenozoic paleobotany through the introduction of new methods and approaches for investigation of floristic and climatic change and the evolution of various groups of pteridophytes, gymnosperms and angiosperms. Sessions will be held at the conference facilities of the Paramount Plaza Hotel in Gainesville overlooking Bivens Lake, with a diversity of shore birds and abundant alligators. More information ...

Extractions: Paleobotany continues to produce a wealth of anatomical, morphological, and systematic studies as well as floristic descriptions, all of which have always been at the heart of the discipline. Significant this year is the publication of Fossil Flora and Stratigraphy of the Florissant Formation, Colorado (Evanoff and others, 2001, Denver Museum of Nature and Science). This volume updates varied aspects of this important Tertiary site, including megafossils, pollen, and wood (papers by E. Leopold and S. Clay-Poole, F. Wingate and D. Nichols, S. Manchester, E. Wheeler) as well as stratigraphy, paleoclimate, and paleoelevation interpretations (E. Evanoff and others, K. Gregory-Wodzicki, H. Meyer). In 2001, paleobotany continued to expand its traditional boundaries to include studies integrating data from fossil plants in order to understand extinction events, past communities, and paleoclimate. Ancient carbon cycles and carbon-dioxide levels Fossil plant data are proving to be invaluable for estimating past carbon-dioxide levels and providing insights on the functioning of ancient carbon cycles. Paleontological data for the diversity of marine animals and land plants was integrated elegantly with a concurrent measure of stable carbon-isotope fractionation for the last 400 million years (D.H.
