TÃtulo : Paleontological Collections of Germany, Austria and Switzerland : The History of Life of Fossil Organisms at Museums and Universities Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Beck, Lothar A., ; Joger, Ulrich, Mención de edición: 1 ed. Editorial: [s.l.] : Springer Fecha de publicación: 2018 Número de páginas: XIII, 573 p. 380 ilustraciones, 342 ilustraciones en color. ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-319-77401-5 Nota general: Libro disponible en la plataforma SpringerLink. Descarga y lectura en formatos PDF, HTML y ePub. Descarga completa o por capítulos. Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Biodiversidad Historia de la ciencia Clasificación: 333.95 Resumen: Este libro está dedicado a 250 años de recolección, organización y preservación de especÃmenes paleontológicos por parte de generaciones de cientÃficos. Las colecciones paleontológicas son un enorme recurso para la investigación moderna y deberÃan estar disponibles para cientÃficos e instituciones nacionales e internacionales, asà como para posibles clientes públicos y privados. Estas colecciones son una parte importante de la empresa cientÃfica, ya que apoyan la investigación, la educación pública y la documentación de la biodiversidad del pasado. Gran parte de lo que estamos empezando a comprender sobre nuestro mundo se lo debemos a la colección, preservación y estudio continuo de especÃmenes naturales. Las colecciones de plantas y animales fósiles marinos o terrestres adecuadamente conservadas son archivos de la historia de la Tierra y son vitales para nuestra capacidad de aprender sobre nuestro lugar en el futuro. El enfoque empleado por los editores implica no sólo una introducción a las colecciones paleontológicas en general, sino también información sobre las redes de colecciones nacionales e internacionales. Se presta especial atención a los nuevos conceptos expositivos y enfoques de clasificación, preservación e investigación en colecciones paleontológicas y también a su abandono y/o amenaza. Además, el libro proporciona información sobre todos los grandes museos públicos, sobre importantes museos estatales y regionales, asà como sobre las colecciones universitarias. Se trata de un libro muy informativo y cuidadosamente presentado, que proporciona conocimientos cientÃficos a los lectores interesados ​​en los registros fósiles, la biodiversidad, la taxonomÃa o la evolución, asà como en las colecciones de historia natural en general.

Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This book is devoted to 250 years of collecting, organizing and preserving paleontological specimens by generations of scientists. Paleontological collections are a huge resource for modern research and should be available for national and international scientists and institutions, as well as prospective public and private customers. These collections are an important part of the scientific enterprise, supporting research, public education, and the documentation of past biodiversity. Much of what we are beginning to understand about our world, we owe to the collection, preservation, and ongoing study of natural specimens. Properly preserved collections of fossil marine or terrestrial plants and animals are archives of Earth's history and vital to our ability to learn about our place in its future. The approach employed by the editors involves not only an introduction to the paleontological collections in general, but also information on the international and national collection networks. Particular attention is given to new exhibition concepts and approaches of sorting, preserving and researching in paleontological collections and also their neglect and/or threat. In addition, the book provides information on all big public museums, on important state museums and regional Museums, and also on university collections. This is a highly informative and carefully presented book, providing scientific insight for readers with an interest in fossil record, biodiversity, taxonomy, or evolution, as well as natural history collections at large.
