Prerequisites: GEOL 3121
GEOL 3211. Invertebrate Paleobiology. Paleontology has traditionally served the earth sciences
primarily as a tool for determining the ages of rocks and
inferring how they correlate from place to place. More
recently it has become apparent that paleontology provides a
unique historical viewpoint on the evolution of the natural
environment. This course introduces students to the basic
evidence of the earth's past life available to paleontolo-
gists, assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of that
evidence, and the logical application of that evidence to
both traditional problems of correlation and to modern
discussion of the evolutionary history of the Earth's
environment. Permission of instructor also required in
