متن کاملCyclic Eolian Stratification on the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone, Zion National Park: Periodicities and Implications for Paleoclimate
Zion National Park and related areas of southern Utah contain exposures of the largest ancient wind-blown (eolian) dune system known in North America, preserved in the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone. Despite the common lack of absolute age constraints, ancient desert sand seas (ergs) and their erg margins can record valuable paleoclimatic proxies in the sedimentary record. The central erg portion of...

متن کاملA Revueltosaur-like Tooth from the Petrified Forest Formation (upper Triassic: Revueltian), Zion National Park

This tooth is relatively low (mesiodistally as long as baso-apically tall), bulbous and asymmetrical in occlusal view, and has denticles that are oblique to the tooth crown. The base of the tooth is also slightly expanded relati...
متن کاملLinking a cougar decline, trophic cascade, and catastrophic regime shift in Zion National Park
The strength of top-down forces in terrestrial food webs is highly debated as there are few examples illustrating the role of large mammalian carnivores in structuring biotic and abiotic systems. Based on the results of this study we hypothesize that an increase in human visitation within Zion Canyon of Zion National Park ultimately resulted in a catastrophic regime shift through pathways invol...
