商品描述
Mexico is a biodiverse country. The dynamics of environments from Mexico played a crucial role in the history of North American biota. This book analyzes the paleoenvironmental conditions using several biological groups and various methods. This book also demonstrates how this information is specifically used to elucidate Mexico's past environments and habitats (terrestrial, freshwater, and marine). This book fills an existing editorial gap since much of the information is dispersed in several bibliographic sources.
The authors are active paleontologists in diverse Mexican universities and research centers. Their research activities contribute to the knowledge of the Mexican biota through geologic time.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
墨西哥是一個生物多樣性豐富的國家。墨西哥的環境動態在北美生物群的歷史中扮演了關鍵角色。本書使用多種生物群和各種方法分析古環境條件。本書還展示了如何具體利用這些信息來闡明墨西哥過去的環境和棲息地(陸地、淡水和海洋)。本書填補了現有編輯空白,因為許多信息分散在多個文獻來源中。
作者是墨西哥多個大學和研究中心的活躍古生物學家。他們的研究活動有助於了解墨西哥生物群在地質時間上的知識。
