Just sending this around again, less than a week left for abstract submissions to IBC2024! We would love to have some palaeotalks too! #fossilfriday
Figure from https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111/pala.12627 showing a diagram representing the taphonomic model proposed for Weichselia reticulata based on fragmentary material of the plant in different localities. Three possible scenarios are shown: (1) fire events burn foliage, which is transported to the depositional sites by runoff water or wind, and preserved as charred compressions; (2) plant debris on the forest floor is transported to the depositional areas by runoff water or wind, and preserved as impressions or iron-oxide coated specimens; (3) storms break off large fragments of fronds that are transported to the depositional sites by strong winds or runoff water during the storm, and are mainly preserved as impressions.
