Project Detail

Paleogene assemblages of diatoms, vascular plants, insects and fish faunas and their development in volcanic environment of the České Středohoří Mts.

Name:	Paleogene assemblages of diatoms, vascular plants, insects and fish faunas and their development in volcanic environment of the České Středohoří Mts.
Researchers:	Houk Václav (co-researcher)
Provider:	Grantová agentura České Republiky
Realization from:	2005
Realization to:	2007
Summary:	Parallel investigations of four groups of organisms - diatoms, vascular plants, insects and fishes - are proposed for the Late Eocene - Late Oligocene time interval in the České Středohoří Mountains volcanic complex in northern Bohemia. Indication value of fossil communities for reconstruction of environment will be confronted for each group to gain better understanding of the environmental changes and landscape development in the late geological history of the Earth under intensive volcanic activity.
