Abstract:
ABSTRACT Vertebrate ichnology in North America has a long and distinguished history, starting with the remarkable discoveries by Edward Hitchcock of dinosaur footprints and trackways in the Connecticut River Valley. Hitchcock assembled a unique collection that is currently housed in the Beneski Museum of Natural History, Amherst College, and his work essentially constituted the beginnings of ichnology as a viable sub-discipline of paleontology. Although his original interpretation that these Late Triassic locomotion traces were bird tracks was incorrect, he indirectly linked birds and dinosaur

A tributary of the Red Deer River in Dinosaur Provincial Park, southern Alberta, contains evidence of a sequence of valley cutting and the deposition of three alluvial fills and one eolian deposit. With the exception of the eolian deposit and minor amounts of Shield and Cordilleran rocks, the sediments are derived from local bedrock. Incision of the bedrock valley occurred in the early postglacial period about 14 000 – 12 000 BP by rapid drainage of proglacial lakes and meltwaters. The valley was subsequently partly infilled as locally fed stream discharges declined during the early to middle

The Early Pennsylvanian (Bashkirian/Morrowan) Round Valley Limestone of northeastern Utah was deposited on the Wyoming shelf, a slowly subsiding depositional surface located between the Eagle and Oquirrh basins. The 311-foot-thick Round Valley Limestone displays a distinct cyclicity formed by stacked, meter-scale parasequences, comprised of a limited suite of open- to restricted-marine limestones with minor interbeds of siltstone and shale. Open-marine deposits are characterized by mudstone and heterozoan wackestone-packstone microfacies (MF1-4) and comprise the lower portions of parasequences

Abstract:
When the subject of extinctions in the geological past comes up, nearly everyone’s thoughts turn to dinosaurs. It may well be true that these long-extinct beasts mean more to most children than the vast majority of living creatures. One could even go so far as to paraphrase Voltaire and maintain that if dinosaurs had never existed it would have been necessary to invent them, if only as a metaphor for obsolescence. To refer to a particular machine as a dinosaur would certainly do nothing for its market value. The irony is that the metaphor is now itself obsolete. The modern scientific view of dinosaurs differs immensely from the old one of lumbering, inefficient creatures tottering to their final decline. Their success as dominant land vertebrates through 165 million years of the Earth’s history is, indeed, now mainly regarded with wonder and even admiration. If, as is generally thought, the dinosaurs were killed off by an asteroid at the end of the Cretaceous, that is something for which no organism could possibly have been prepared by normal Darwinian natural selection. The final demise of the dinosaurs would then have been the result, not of bad genes, but of bad luck, to use the laconic words of Dave Raup. In contemplating the history of the dinosaurs it is necessary to rectify one widespread misconception. Outside scientific circles the view is widely held that the dinosaurs lived for a huge slice of geological time little disturbed by their environment until the final apocalypse. This is a serious misconception. The dinosaurs suffered quite a high evolutionary turnover rate, and this implies a high rate of extinction throughout their history. Jurassic dinosaurs, dominated by giant sauropods, stegosaurs, and the top carnivore Allosaurus, are quite different from those of the Cretaceous period, which are characterized by diverse hadrosaurs, ceratopsians, and Tyrannosaurus. Michael Crichton’s science-fiction novel Jurassic Park, made famous by the Steven Spielberg movies, features dinosaurs that are mainly from the Cretaceous, probably because velociraptors and Tyrannosaurus could provide more drama.

Abstract:
On the morning of June 30, 1908, civilization may have suffered the worst piece of luck in its history. A small cometlike object exploded in the atmosphere above the Tunguska river valley in Siberia. It did little more than scorch and flatten trees for 20 kilometers in all directions and kill a thousand reindeer. However, if that object had struck a heavily populated region, we would not now dwell under any illusion concerning how close to the edge of extinction the human species actually hovers. Because the Tunguska missile missed a populated area, the threat of impact did not really begin to enter the public imagination until after the 1980 announcement of the discovery of the iridium in the K/T boundary layer. Had the Tunguska object struck a large city, a million people or more might have perished, and the phenomenon would have raised everyone’s awareness to the threat of comet impact. Instead, nearly a century later, the threat of comet and asteroid impact is regarded as little more than an interesting anecdote. Very slowly the nature of the threat is being recognized, but only because of the somewhat esoteric discovery that the dinosaurs were wiped out by a major impact 65 million years ago. Such huge collisions are infrequent, perhaps about once every 50 to 100 million years. It is the smaller impacts that pose the greatest danger, and they occur far more frequently. About 800 years ago the South Island of New Zealand suffered widespread fires, which leveled the island and led to the extinction of the Moa bird. Maori legend says that a big explosion in the sky was the cause of the strange fire. Duncan Steel of the University of Adelaide and Peter Snow from Otago in New Zealand have pieced together a fascinating scenario that suggests that the Maori were correct. The fireball created by a comet impact may have ignited the forests of South Island. Near the town of Tapanui in the province of Otago there exists a crater that geologists have been slow to identify as extraterrestrial in origin.

Abstract:
There are a range of natural resources for geotourism in Korea, including scenic mountains with variable geological histories, hot springs, and coastline environments. Many of the national and provincial parks and natural monuments in Korea have been designated because of their geological values. Three sites on Jeju Island have been inscribed on the World Heritage list largely for geological values such as volcanic features and landscape and associated scenic values. Furthermore, there are many geological heritage sites designated as natural monuments in Cretaceous sedimentary basins in Korea. They include dinosaur fossil sites and geologically scenic sites. The former are of great scientific importance and many have the potential to be developed into geotourism destinations of global significance. Five sites, on the Korean Cretaceous Deinosaur Coast which have been very important for regional tourism, are currently being nominated as World Heritage for their highly significant fossil trackways and dinosaur eggs. The full gambit of geotourism potential for Korean geological heritage has rarely been studied (Jeong, 2000; Heo et al., 2006a; Heo et al., 2006b; Heo, 2007). In this chapter the Cretaceous geosites in Korea are summarized in respect to their importance as globally significant geotourism resources.

Abstract:
The Dorset and East Devon Coast World Heritage Site (also known as the ‘Jurassic Coast’), stretches for 155 km across the southern English coastline, encompassing one of the most spectacular geological sequences in the world. The internationally renowned coastal exposures of the Jurassic Coast were awarded World Heritage Site status in 2001 based on a near complete sequence of Mesozoic rocks, which record evidence and development of early reptiles through to the age of the dinosaurs. For a site to obtain World Heritage Site status, it must exhibit cultural or natural features that are of ‘outstanding universal value’ and must be protected for present and future generations of all humanity. Protecting the integrity (or condition) of the site is essential for maintaining the qualities that led to site inscription. Coastal erosion maintains the geological integrity of the Jurassic Coast by exposing fossils that are then washed out onto the beaches. The fossils are an important part of our geological heritage.
