	Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic
		Episode 13 of The Classical Connection features full-length pieces by Birdsongs of the Mesozoic, along with pieces by the individual members, juxtaposed against some of their favorite classical pieces for an interesting exercise in making musical connections.
		Tune in to the Internet's premiere progressive rock radio station Delicious Agony every Thursday at 2:00 Eastern time to listen to the show, and visit www.creativeprogression.com/classi-prog for episode downloads, program notes, and more information.
		For their 13th album and in their 25th year together, post-punk, art-rock pioneers Birdsongs of the Mesozoic do a 180 degree musical swerve and link up with bass-baritone vocalist Oral Moses, one of the preeminent African-American performers of traditional spirituals.

	Introduction to the Mesozoic Era
		Mesozoic means "middle animals", and is the time during which the world fauna changed drastically from that which had been seen in the Paleozoic.
		Dinosaurs, which are perhaps the most popular organisms of the Mesozoic, evolved in the Triassic, but were not very diverse until the Jurassic.
		The Mesozoic Era occurs between the Paleozoic and the Cenozoic.

	Earth Floor: Geologic Time
		The Mesozoic is divided into just three time periods: the Triassic, the Jurassic, and the Cretaceous.
		Dinosaurs began in the Triassic, spread during the Jurassic, and dominated Earth in the Cretaceous.
		They are so prominent that the Mesozoic is also called "The Age of Reptiles." But dinosaurs are not the only life form around: birds and mammals also appear during the Mesozoic, as well as deciduous trees and flowering plants.

	Mesozoic era. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		By the late Mesozoic, tectonic activity increased dramatically: the new Indian Ocean began to open, the Atlantic Ocean began to open along an extensive rift zone separating the Americas from Europe and Africa (see seafloor spreading).
		The life of the Mesozoic was dominated by the reptiles that evolved into the large land-dwelling dinosaurs of the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods.
		Mammals probably evolved from some common ancestor of the reptiles early in the Triassic Period, but were subordinate to the reptiles until the end of the era, when the dominance of reptiles was ended by the extinction of the dinosaurs.

	DINOSAURS: Periods
		Mesozoic is sub divided into three periods for accurate dating namely Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous.
		This period is believed to be the smallest period of the Mesozoic Era.

	Palaeos Mesozoic: The Mesozoic Era
		At the beginning of the Mesozoic, all of the world's continents were joined into the supercontinent of Pangea, which rifted into Laurasia in the north and Gondwanaland in the south.
		The Triassic, particularly the first half of the Triassic, was dry and highly seasonal, with particularly large annual temperature variations in the vast continental interior of Pangea, the world-spanning continent of the Triassic.
		It is easy to type "Mesozoic Reef Systems," just as it is easy to type the words "The History of the Asia." In both cases, it's a bit harder to say anything meaningful in a few words.

	Mesozoic era — FactMonster.com
		The Appalachian geosyncline, or downward thrust of the earth's crust, was replaced by the Appalachian Mts., and the eastern part of the continent was elevated during most of the era.
		The life of the Mesozoic was dominated by the reptiles that evolved into the large land-dwelling dinosaurs of the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods.
		Mammals probably evolved from some common ancestor of the reptiles early in the Triassic Period, but were subordinate to the reptiles until the end of the era, when the dominance of reptiles was ended by the extinction of the dinosaurs.

	The Mesozoic
		Mesozoic seas saw a rise and spread of another iteration of the cephalopods, the ceratites, eventually to be replaced by the ammonites.
		During the Mesozoic ginkgoes were worldwide in their distribution and important elements bin the gymnosperm forests that dominated the land.
		Among the various hypotheses to explain the extinction that closed the Mesozoic era were allergies by dinosaurs to pollen produced by flowering plants, increased radiation levels that led to male dinosaur sterility, diseases brought by migrating animals, and a gradual climate deterioration that the dinosaurs were unable to cope with.

	Mesozoic Summary
		During the Mesozoic Era the Pangaean supercontinent spanned Earth's equatorial regions and separated the Panthalassic Ocean and the Tethys Ocean basins.
		Animal life during the Mesozoic was dominated, however, by large archosaurian reptiles that appeared a few million years after the Permian extinction: dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and aquatic reptiles such as ichthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, and mosasaurs.
		As the temperatures in the seas increased, the larger animals of the early Mesozoic gradually began to disappear while smaller animals of all kinds, including lizards, snakes, and perhaps the ancestor mammals to primates, evolved.

	Mesozoic Life
		During the Mesozoic, new fauna arose on both land and sea including new species of molluscs, sea urchins, crustaceans, and fish.
		The echinoderms underwent major changes during the Mesozoic when vulnerable stalked crinoids and blastoids were replaced by armored and burrowing echinoids (sea urchins).
		Figure 14.44: Feeding on the variety of swimming ammonoids and fish of the Mesozoic seas were different kinds of marine reptiles ranging from short-legged, short-necked varieties resembling seals to long-necked plesiosaurs with whale-like bodies and broad, paddle-shaped fins.

	Happenings During the Mesozoic Era (248-65 Million Years Ago)
		At the start of the Mesozoic, the continents were all joined together forming one large continent called Pangaea.
		The cooling may have been caused by either a huge asteroid impact near the Yucatan Peninsula, a large amount of volcanic eruptions in the area that is today India and Pakistan, or by a combination of both the asteroid and volcanoes.
		During the Mesozoic, mammals were eaten by carnivorous dinosaurs.
