Über dieses E-Book
Frozen Fossils explores the fascinating world of ice age megafauna preserved in permafrost, offering insights into Earth's past climate and ecosystems. These frozen remains, like woolly mammoths and woolly rhinos, provide invaluable data about the Pleistocene epoch. One intriguing fact is that some specimens are so well-preserved that their last meals are still intact, offering clues about their diets.
The book highlights how studying these fossils helps us understand the impacts of climate change and predict future ecological shifts by examining the anatomical and genetic insights gleaned from these specimens. The book presents a fact-based, scientific exploration of how scientists excavate, analyze, and interpret these frozen finds using methods like radiocarbon dating and DNA sequencing.
It emphasizes the interdisciplinary connections between paleontology, climatology, and genetics, showing how these fields combine to reconstruct ancient ecosystems. Frozen Fossils progresses by introducing permafrost and preservation conditions before detailing specific species and the scientific methods used to study them, avoiding sensationalism and focusing on balanced scientific evidence.
