	Paleoecology
		Paleoecology is the science which deals with fossils as a tool for detecting ancient environments, in which these fossils lived or supposed to have lived and also the associated sediments were deposited.
		To define Paleoecology we should first define ecology, which is the study of the interactions of organisms with one another and with the physical environment.
		Paleoecology is an important science in serving geology especially in determining the environment of deposition represented in the rock.

	Paleoecology of Megalodon and the White Shark
		Paleoecology is the science of reconstructing how prehistoric ecosystems functioned.
		As the shark fossil record consists almost entirely of teeth, understanding the paleoecology of these creatures is fraught with challenges.
		In a 1996 paper, paleontologist Robert W. Purdy used the fossil record to explore the paleoecology of Megalodon, the White Shark, and related species in the western North Atlantic.

		The development of these ecological anomalies may be the result of the unique topography and climate of the Upper Gunnison Basin that together have caused local extirpations and isolation of species over thousands of years, but this hypothesis remains to be tested.
		In 1996 and 1997, funding was received from the Colorado Historical Society to investigate the paleoecology and archaeology of the Upper Gunnison Basin.

	ABSTRACT: Paleoecology of a groundwater outflow using siliceous microfossils. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29)
		ABSTRACT: Paleoecology of a groundwater outflow using siliceous microfossils.
		Paleoecological investigations of sediments deposited downstream of freshwater springs have the potential to reconstruct the environmental history of source aquifers and their catchments, thereby allowing for the study of long-term changes in these important hydrological systems.
		These approaches show promise for relating changes in siliceous microfossils to human impacts and natural changes in springhabitats, their catchments and the quality of groundwater.

		Although the principles of paleoecology are the same as those underlying modern ecology, the two fields actually differ greatly.
		Paleoecology is a historical science that must rely on empirical data from fossils and their enclosing sedimentary rocks to make inferences about past conditions.
		The lack of precision is compensated for by the fact that paleoecology deals with processes occurring over vast spans of time that are unavailable to modern ecology.

	Nearctica - Paleontology - Palynology and Paleoecology
		The dominant component of Palynology is the study of pollen grains in sediments from the Quartenary, but anything plant and small qualifies such as fungal spores and algal remains such as diatoms and dinoflagellates.
		Paleoecology has been included on this page because past ecological conditions and environments, particulary for the Quartenary, are commonly inferred from these palynological studies.
		You'll find vegetation maps for North America for different time periods and information on how the movement of vegetation types was influenced by the glaciations of the Quarternary.

		In spite of the Workshop title, efforts aimed at elucidating the "paleoecology and ecosystem history of the lower Everglades" by relating paleoindicators to modern ecological studies were virtually absent!
		Although the problems in Florida Bay have been identified as being associated with seagrasses, algal blooms and turbidity there was little reference to the direct investigation of these entities or their occurrence in the Bay and factors which typically control them.
		This will obviously place some limits on what can be achieved in ecosystem restoration, but it also dictates that a significant part of the management, if not restoration, strategy should be enhancement of the wetlands' ability to aggrade soil (peat as well as carbonates) to keep up with rising sea level.
