Abstract:
All of the taphonomic and other factors involved in fossilization, exposure and collection of fossils affect the preservation state, the condition in which the fossils become available for collection. These factors also determine what should be done to, at the very least, at least maintain that preservation state, and ideally provide a stabilized specimen that can, if desired, be restored. Weathering of rocks and their contained fossils is always a combination of mechanical and chemical processes. The collection of fossils in the field, and later work in the laboratory, attempts to halt or slo

Abstract:
The preservation of paleontological heritage is relevant for paleobiological and geological research, as well as for scientific dissemination. Fossils are indicative of the evolutionary processes, biodiversity, ecology, and geography of the past and require specific geoconservation actions. In Italy, fossils are protected as cultural heritage, and their unauthorized collection and trading are counteracted by a regulatory framework. The local superintendence and law enforcement provide control over the territory, often resorting to the expertise of university paleontologists. In the Calabria re

Abstract:
COLLECTIONS OF invertebrate fossils are commonly maintained in museums, at universities, and by individual researchers and interested private collectors. Twenty years ago, the Committee on North American Resources in Invertebrate Paleontology (CONARIP) estimated that there more than 550 institutions housed invertebrate paleontological macro- and micro- fossil collections (Glenister, 1977). Historically, collections have been developed, managed and maintained by paleontologists as a resource for their research (e.g., museum curator or university faculty) (Hebda, 1985).

The aim of the study was the taxonomic, morphological, ecological and stratigraphic characterization of marine invertebrate groups from the localities of Wiek and Wysoka (Krakow-Częstochowa Upland) and Gnieździska (Świętokrzyskie Mountains). All of these three localities were unused quarries where limestone was once mined. The material consisted of a total of 756 fossils collected by the author from the studied sites or constituting part of the collections of the Department of Vertebrate Ecology and Palaeontology at the University of Environmental and Life Sciences in Wrocław.

Between 1970 and 1987, Michael Bernstein collected marine fossils from previously known localities in Cumberland, Salem, Gloucester, Camden, and Burlington Counties, and from a few localities he discovered. Most of the specimens are invertebrates, although shark teeth, reptile bones, wood, and a fine coprolite were also found. The bones include two adjoining peripherals from the carapace of a sea turtle, found in 1985 at the dinosaur locality in Haddonfield and donated to the New Jersey State Museum (Registration No. 85.34.2.2.1 dated July 3, 1985).

The standard preparation of a sample for nannofossil analysis requires the collection of the largest quantity and the best fossils. Sample preparation accords to the following steps: i. Pounding sample; ii. Eliminating organic matter; iii. Washing sample; iv. Filter sample through the sieve; v. Eliminating clay; vi. Drying sample in an incubator; vii. Packing sample.

The aim of this study is to fully research all aspects of the distribution, development, conditions of burial and preservation of the Ediacaran biocomplex. Thiswork summarizes and extends all data on the unique Vendian invertebrates that are distributed in the natural and artificial outcrops of the Dniester River Basin within Podilia (Ukraine). One of the basic locations of the annual observation was a quarry of rubble stone production near the Dniester hydroelectric station-1, Novodnistrovsk city, which exposes a continuous section of the deposits of the Lomoziv, Yampil, Lyadova and Bernashiv

Abstract:
Removal or protection from biostratinomic agents of decomposition, such as predators and scavengers, is widely seen as a requirement for high-quality preservation of soft tissues in the fossil record. In this context, extremely rapid burial is an oft-cited mechanism for shielding remains from degradation, but not all fossils fit nicely into this paradigm. Dinosaurian mummies in particular seemingly require two mutually exclusive taphonomic processes to preserve under that framework: desiccation and rapid burial. Here we present a recently prepared Edmontosaurus mummy that reveals an alternate

Abstract:
This paper engages with one of the potential sources to which the experience of being lost, or misrecognising the landscape, that is so common in Beckett's work might be traced. Linking Beckett's often ignored early collection of short stories, More Pricks Than Kicks, to the abstract landscapes of the post-war fiction, allows us to trace an interest in unsettled places to a much earlier point in Beckett's work than is usually allowed. The interest in antiquities so prevalent in the early fiction emerges from a larger national conversation in Ireland about the preservation of the Gaelic past in

Abstract:
This chapter discusses how, starting in the late 1970s and continuing throughout the 1980s, a number of characters from futurists and enthusiasts to scientists and science-fiction writers contributed to the early intellectual history of the search for DNA from fossils. At this time, three ideas—the theoretical preservation and potential extraction of DNA from fossils and the hypothetical resurrection of extinct organisms from DNA in ancient material—inspired a new way of thinking about fossils. These ideas appeared to have arisen independently among different individuals from four distinct per
