How does Forensic Palynology Works?

In this article we will discuss about the pollen and spore production and dispersion, pollen sinking speed, pollen degradation, and pollen recycling are important consideration in the study of forensic palynology. 1. Pollen and spore production and dispersion: If one know what the expected production and dispersal patterns of spores and pollen along with their flowering calendar of the plants [...]

Deposits Containing Fossil Pollen and Spores

The deposit that contains pollen grains and spores suitable for identification and analysis include peats, lake sediments, soil and mor humus. Peats: Peats are the early stage of coalification which are formed due to accumulations of organic detritus largely of plant origin. Peats are developed into a stratified sequence due to the successive deposition of plant parts containing pollen and [...]

Parameters Used in Exploration of Hydrocarbons

The parameters that used in the exploration of such hydrocarbons are discussed below: 1. Determination of Ancient Shore Lines 2. Sedimentology 3. Post Depositional Alteration of Palynomorphs 4. Biostratigraphy and Palaeo- Environmental Analysis 5. Palynological Assemblages of Coal Seams. 1. Determination of Ancient Shore Lines: The defining of ancient shore lines bears special significance in oil accumulation. It is generally [...]
