| Micropalaeontology is the study of microfossils, a microfossil being any fossil that is best studied by means of a microscope. |
|
| Once they have sketched the outlines of the basic chronology, geochemistry and geography, the rest will probably fall, microfossil by microfossil. |
|
| An example of a dinocyst, a microfossil that is often found in marine sedimentary rocks. |
|
| More-recent seismic and microfossil studies have suggested that the seafloor never was completely dry. |
|
| Even microfossil data can be unreliable if there are hiatuses in the fossil record. |
|
| In this sample and in a few others just above and below it, abundant radiolarians comprise the entire microfossil suite. |
|
| As it turned out, the microfossil identification remains questionable, and might even be wrong. |
|
| The earliest microfossil record is an admixture of redeposited Paleozoic spores and pollen from distant deglaciated sites. |
|
| An acid-free method of microfossil extraction from clay-rich lithologies using the surfactant Rewoquat. |
|
| Conodonts traditionally play a leading role in Silurian microfossil biostratigraphy but chitinozoans have also proved their high value. |
|
| Is the indigenous microfossil syngenetic with secondary minerals? |
|
| To avoid confusion, microfossil assemblages were used to classify the chalk marl. |
|
| Larger animals are too scarce in the fossil record for good statistics, so paleontologists have analyzed microfossil extinctions. |
|
| Some new and revised organic-walled phytoplankton microfossil genera. |
|
| These geochemical and microfossil findings support the idea that during the Precambrian period, complex life evolved both in the oceans and on land. |
|
| Microfossil is a descriptive term applied to fossilized plants and animals whose size is just at or below the level at which the fossil can be analyzed by the naked eye. |
