  • Taphonomy

    Process and Bias Through Time

    Edited by Peter A. Allison, David J. Bottjer ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Taphonomic bias is a pervasive feature of the fossil record. A pressing concern, however, is the extent to which taphonomic processes have varied through the ages. It is one thing to work with a biased data set and quite another to work with a bias that has changed with time. This book includes work from both new and established researchers who are using laboratory, field and data-base techniques ... Read more
