Frozen in Time Hardback
by Jeffrey D Stilwell, John A Long
Hardback
Description
No other continent on Earth has undergone such radical environmental changes as Antarctica.
In its transition from rich biodiversity to the barren, cold land of blizzards we see today, Antarctica provides a dramatic case study of how subtle changes in continental positioning can affect living communities, and how rapidly catastrophic changes can come about.
Frozen in Time presents a comprehensive overview of the fossil record of Antarctica framed within its changing environmental settings, providing a window into a past time and environment on the continent.
It reconstructs Antarctica's evolving animal and plant communities as accurately as the fossil record permits.
