CO2-Forced Climate and Vegetation Instability During Late Paleozoic Deglaciation
Isabel P. Montañez,Neil J. Tabor,Debbie A. Niemeier,William A. DiMichele,Tracy D. Frank,Christopher R. Fielding,John L. Isbell,Lauren P. Birgenheier,Michael C. Rygel +8 more
TL;DR: Major restructuring of paleotropical flora in western Euramerica occurred in step with climate and pCO2 shifts, illustrating the biotic impact associated with past CO2-forced turnover to a permanent ice-free world.
Book

Norton G. Miller,Anna K. Behrensmeyer,John Damuth,William A. DiMichele,Richard Potts,Hans-Dieter Sues,Scott L. Wing +6 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the taphonomy and paleoenvironmental settings of fossil deposits as well as guidelines for developing ecological characterizations of extinct organisms and the communities in which they lived are provided in this paper.

Journal ArticleDOI
EARLY EVOLUTION OF LAND PLANTS: Phylogeny, Physiology, and Ecology of the Primary Terrestrial Radiation
Richard M. Bateman,Peter R. Crane,William A. DiMichele,Paul Kenrick,Nick P. Rowe,Thomas Speck,William E. Stein +6 more
TL;DR: The Siluro-Devonian primary radiation of land biotas is the terrestrial equivalent of the much-debated Cambrian “explosion” of marine faunas, which ended with the formation of evolutionary and ecological frameworks analogous to those of modern ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stratigraphic and interregional changes in Pennsylvanian coal-swamp vegetation: Environmental inferences
TL;DR: In the coal-ball concretions from 32 coal seams in the eastern one-half of the United States and from several seams in western Europe and on spore assemblages from more than 150 seams as mentioned in this paper.
