| The paleoenvironment probably represents an open marine, shallow shelf habitat. |
| This is very important for further studies on paleoanthropology, paleogeology and paleoenvironment. |
| The paleoenvironment under which Burmese amber was produced was perhaps the warmest tropical climate of any Cretaceous amber forest, with a rich biotic diversity. |
| Within a particular paleoenvironment the organisms could further subdivide resources by establishing epifaunal, and possibly infaunal, tiers. |
| A brief synopsis of the lithology, age, and paleoenvironment and associated fauna are given for each unit. |
| Carbon and oxygen isotope ratios vary with time, and researchers can use those to map subtle changes that occurred in the paleoenvironment. |
