This book brings together the widely scattered observations about Permian rocks of the northern part of Pangea. In Volume 1 broad overviews are provided for Pangean paleogeography and continental positioning as well as faunal and floral extinctions. Several papers examine Permian paleoclimates and climatic cyclicity using computer modeling, traditional geological evidence from climatic indicators, or a combination of both approaches. More detailed, and more conventional correlation techniques are discussed in papers dealing with biostratigraphic and paleogeographic aspects of the most important fossil groups in the Permian. The reader will find a synthesis of current geologic knowledge and an outline of modern trends of interpretation for a time interval which is receiving increased attention. |
