Methods of Biostratigraphy [PB-V2]
(Vorlesung, 1 SWS, Michael Heinze et al., Mo, 10:15 - 11:00, ÜR Pal.)
Inhalt:
a) Systematics, Ecology and Biostratigraphy of Microfossils
Students learn to identify important microfossil groups through time and their application in biostratigraphy and environmental analysis. They understand constraints on these applications resulting
from taphonomy and uncertain ecologies or affinities of these groups. Rates and patterns of microfossil evolution, with respect to environmental changes, lead the students to a broader understanding of the interaction between geo- and biosphere processes.
b) Methods of Biostratigraphy
The use of index macro- and microfossils based on their succession is demonstrated, starting from their definitions, and involving relevant examples from the Earth history. The methodology of lineage, range,
and other types of biozones is explained based on representative case studies from marine and terrestrial systems. Modern quantitative methods of biostratigraphy are presented, such as constrained
optimization and unitary associations. The integration of biostratigraphy and other stratigraphical methods is also presented.
Lernziele und Kompetenzen:
The students are able to:
follow the rules of International Commission on Stratigraphy on identifying, naming, and correlating Biozones
outline the stratigraphic range, taxonomic position and ecology of key groups used in biostratigraphy
identify zones in a succession based on fossil occurrence data and compare it with different zonations
perform graphical correlation
calculate confidence intervals on stratigraphic ranges
integrate biostratigraphic data with other types of stratigraphic information, e.g. sequence stratigraphy or chemostratigraphy
