... . In contrast to Velikovsky, Schindewolf could not be accused of lacking the credentials needed to put forward theories concerning the evolution of life on Earth. He was professor of palaeontology at Tubingen University from the end of World War II until his death and made extensive field investigations of the Permian-Triassic boundary, particularly in the Salt Range of Pakistan [ ... Chao, Robert Dietz and Eugene Shoemaker, that, in general, explosion craters and crypto-explosion structures had an impact origin [2 ,8 ,9 ]. Meanwhile, palaeontologists had continued to dig, without finding much positive evidence of gradual transitions. However, trapped by the association which had been established between Darwinism and gradualism, and Thomas ...

Thus, theoretically, the palaeontologist may read in the successive rock layers the record of the successive past living forms throughout geological time and form an idea as to how life has evolved.

If this is so (and Gallant's evidence cannot simply be dismissed or explained away by any unbiased reader), geophysicists, oceanographers, geologists, palaeontologists, archaeologists-and, indeed, all scientific specialists concerned with Earth-history-will have to look again critically at some of their basic conceptions, established long since on the assumption (for ...

... vacant ecological niches. Astronomical evidence suggests that at least some mass extinctions are likely to have resulted from the impacts of comets or asteroids upon the Earth, while geological and palaeontological evidence is consistent with the extinctions at the end of the Cretaceous Period and the Eocene Epoch having had such a cause. The Earth and its surroundings Our particular corner ... possibly products of Earth-comet collisions [24]*. Furthermore, an earlier collision might have destroyed the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous Period [24]. The palaeontologist, M.

... process, depending on one's evolutionary beliefs. In the societary hierarchy, mass extinctions (biotic crises) are seen as fast or slow events, depending how one interprets the palaeontological evidence. The point is that the catastrophism-gradualism debate is couched in different terms for individual species (speciation events) and for the entire biosphere (mass extinctions) but ... may arise through an increase in the extinction rate, which is what the fossil record suggests happens, but a decrease in the speciation rate would have the same effect. Palaeontologists recognise that, at times in Earth history, global biodiversity has fallen far enough and fast enough to call for the name mass extinction'. Five major episodes of ...
