Abstract

Abstract Neoichnological analyses are essential for the accurate assessment and interpretation of ancient, trace-bearing sedimentary successions. Behaviours exemplified by modern organisms are diverse and commonly complex. Direct observation is most easily accomplished in shallow aquatic and subaerially exposed settings, with sustained observation limited primarily to the latter. Laboratory-based neoichnological experimentation fills the void left by the limitations on field based-studies. It also allows for the standardization of behaviour-influencing variables such as substrate parameters, water characteristics and resource availability. By altering these variables, subtle changes in behaviour and trace-making can be observed, enhancing our ability to interpret the rock record.

基于实验室的新技术实验对水生古生态分析的重要性
摘要新技术分析对于准确评价和解释古代有迹的沉积序列至关重要。以现代生物为例的行为是多样的,通常是复杂的。直接观察最容易在浅水和水下暴露环境中完成,持续观察主要限于后者。以实验室为基础的新技术实验填补了实地研究的局限性所留下的空白。它还允许对影响行为的变量进行标准化,如基质参数、水特性和资源可用性。通过改变这些变量,可以观察到行为和痕迹的细微变化,从而提高我们解释岩石记录的能力。

期刊介绍: The foremost aim of Ichnos is to promote excellence in ichnologic research. Primary emphases center upon the ethologic and ecologic significance of tracemaking organisms; organism-substrate interrelationships; and the role of biogenic processes in environmental reconstruction, sediment dynamics, sequence or event stratigraphy, biogeochemistry, and sedimentary diagenesis. Each contribution rests upon a firm taxonomic foundation, although papers dealing solely with systematics and nomenclature may have less priority than those dealing with conceptual and interpretive aspects of ichnology. Contributions from biologists and geologists are equally welcome. The format for Ichnos is designed to accommodate several types of manuscripts, including Research Articles (comprehensive articles dealing with original, fundamental research in ichnology), and Short Communications (short, succinct papers treating certain aspects of the history of ichnology, book reviews, news and notes, or invited comments dealing with current or contentious issues). The large page size and two-column format lend flexibility to the design of tables and illustrations. Thorough but timely reviews and rapid publication of manuscripts are integral parts of the process.
