Micropaleontology [SGOLB304]

Learning outcomes

Recognize the main taxa of microfossils. A special attention is given to the geological implications of the presence of microfossils in the sedimentary rocks in relation with stratigraphy, palaeoecology, diagenesis, palaeoclimatology, ...

Content

For each group of microfossils, we pay special attention to the following concepts: preparation of samples, systematics, evolution-stratigraphy and paleoecology.
