Recent Advances in Palynology
Abstract
A set of 11 abstracts and short papers (extended abstracts) of presentations given at a meeting organized by the NFSR Working Group, "Micropaléontologie végétale et Palynologie (MVP)", held on May 24, 2006 at the University of Liège, Belgium. These contributions are available only in English or in French. 1- Some considerations on Devonian miospore taxonomy. 2- A classification of spores by support vectors based on an analysis of their ornament spatial distribution – An application to Emsian miospores from Saudi Arabia. 3- Palynology of Baudour Clays Formation (Mons Basin, Belgium): correlation within the "stratotypic" Wealden. 4- Observations on Wealden fossilised wood from the Mons Basin (Belgium) and their palaeoclimatic implications – preliminary results. 5- Advances in Ediacaran biostratigraphy in Australia. 6- Patterns of diversification in early eukaryotes. 7- Strud: old quarry, new discoveries. Preliminary report. 8- PalyWeb: A palynomorph database project on the web. 9- Palynological and geochemical data in peat sediments alongside an old (Roman or Merovingian) paved road in the Hautes-Fagnes. 10- Chitinozoans of the lower Llanvirn Huy and the middle Caradoc Sart-Bernard formations (Middle to Upper Ordovician): implications for the stratigraphy of the Condroz Inlier (Belgium). 11- Middle Devonian (Givetian) megaspores from Belgium (Ronquières) and Libya (A1-69 borehole).
