The Period of Dinosaurs until Today

Tuesday, August 9, 2011



There were several different kinds of dinosaurs and it occurred to me that they are all Carnivores (Meat-Eaters). Later on in a university geology class, I struggled to be familiar with words like “Mesozoic” and “paleontology” memorizing various theories about epochs, era’s and periods. But I wasn’t all that concerned in thoughtful the association of natural things. Reasonable, why did dinosaurs became extinct: Had this happened slowly as temperatures grew warmer? As mammals developed and eat their eggs? Or were they wiped away by something? A new finding in the fossil record provides physical confirmation that there was a meteor impact 65 million years ago.

That’s almost certainly why the Cretaceous Period ends where it does and the Paleocene Period (the rise of mammals) begins—this periohttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifd immediately followed the asteroid crash that destroyed the dinosaurs and the Cretaceous world. In recent times scientists originate a fossil in the Hell Creek formation in Montana, someplace other Triceratops dinosaurs fossils have been originate just five inches less the Cretaceous–Tertiary layer, which is the geological layer that script the boundary commencing the Cretaceous Period to the Tertiary Period 65 million years ago—the time that the group extinction of dinosaurs is out-of-date. Investigation of mud samples helped scientists recognize the exact location of the boundary, based on a “relative great quantity of sure types of fossilized pollen and additional geological indicators other than is difficult to determine visually though in the field.”

Earlier, scientists had relied on a chart examination of the real rock formations in the field to decide the boundary’s location; Soil investigation provides for a additional accurate intelligence of where the boundary is really located. My childhood attraction doesn’t get much of an exercises living in the Holocene Epoch (11,700 years ago to today) of the Quaternary Period. In Collier County, the most excellent we can do with plant life is look at some cloud enclosed aerials dating from 1947. At some point, and now may be perfect, we require deciding what tomorrow must look like and put our money into creation it happen. After all, a reasonable number of folks living in Collier County these days were born before 1947 and they keep in mind how nice Florida was. But everyone can understand Collier County of the 1940s with a heavy trip on our interior roads.
