Paleontology
Definition of Paleontology as it relates to Science, Earth Science, Oceanography
Paleontology, as a branch of Earth Science within Oceanography, is concerned with the study of prehistoric life forms and their environments. By examining fossil records, paleontologists seek to understand the evolutionary history of organisms, the processes of speciation and extinction, and the structure and function of ancient ecosystems. This field also encompasses the investigation of Earth's geologic past, shedding light on the formation of oceans, continents, and climatic conditions throughout time. In this context, Paleontology provides valuable insights into the dynamic interplay between life and its physical environment, deepening our understanding of oceanographic processes and their impact on Earth's biosphere.
