Wetland-Dryland Vegetational Dynamics in the Pennsylvanian Ice Age Tropics

TL;DR: Lower-diversity worlds such as the late Paleozoic, with a rich spectrum of environmental variations, offer insights into relationships between organisms and environments that expand understanding of these phenomena and enlarge their sense of what is possible or probable as the authors look to the future.

Pennsylvanian 'fossil forests' in growth position (T0 assemblages): origin, taphonomic bias and palaeoecological insights

TL;DR: Fossil forests, buried in growth position in a geological instant (T 0 assemblages) are far more abundant in Pennsylvanian successions than in any other part of the geological record as mentioned in this paper.

Paleoecology of Late Paleozoic pteridosperms from tropical Euramerica1

TL;DR: DiMichele et al. as mentioned in this paper studied the Late Paleozoic pteridosperms, a paraphyletic group of seed plants that were prominent elements of tropical ecosystems, primarily those of wetlands or the wetter portions of seasonally dry environments.

Palaeozoic co-evolution of rivers and vegetation: a synthesis of current knowledge

TL;DR: In this article, a range of new fluvial planform and architectural styles came to prominence, including channelled-and island-braided systems, meandering and anabranching systems, and stable muddy floodplains.

Landscape gradients and patchiness in riparian vegetation on a Middle Pennsylvanian braided-river plain prone to flood disturbance (Nýřany Member, Central and Western Bohemian Basin, Czech Republic)

TL;DR: The spatial heterogeneity and community ecology of riparian vegetation preserved in fluvial deposits of the upper Asturian to middle (?) Cantabrian (upper Moscovian) Nýřany Member, Central and Western Bohemian Basin, Czech Republic is reconstructed in this article.

Dextral Transpression and Late Carboniferous Sedimentation in the Fundy Coastal Zone of Southern New Brunswick

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the development of a basement-involved fold-thrust belt, the position of which coincides with a major, right-lateral compressive bend in the Upper Carboniferous Cobequid-Chedabucto Fault System.

Tectonic event stratigraphy in a fluvio-lacustrine, strike-slip setting; the Boss Point Formation (Westphalian A), Cumberland Basin, Maritime Canada

TL;DR: The Boss Point Formation (Westphalian A) as mentioned in this paper is composed of sandstone, mudstone, claystone, coal, and braidplain sandstone packages, preserved beneath a blanket of lacustrine mudstone.

Late Paleozoic to Cenozoic history of the offshore Sydney Basin, Atlantic Canada

TL;DR: In this article, the Sydney Basin is interpreted using an industry seismic grid and Lithoprobe line 86-5, tied to outcrops and two wells, with a well-exposed outcrop belt on Cape Breton Island.
