Beschreibung

Royal octavo [25cm/10inches], paperbound with pictorial covers, pp. 196, indexed. Fully illustrated with charts, graphs &tc. Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional snapshots. The Mississippian (also known as Lower Carboniferous or Early Carboniferous) is a subperiod in the geologic timescale or a subsystem of the geologic record. It is the earliest/lowermost of two subperiods of the Carboniferous period lasting from roughly 358.9 to 323.2 million years ago. As with most other geochronologic units, the rock beds that define the Mississippian are well identified, but the exact start and end dates are uncertain by a few million years. The Mississippian is so named because rocks with this age are exposed in the Mississippi River valley. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 23609
