项目摘要

This award supports the U.S.-India Planning Visit: Floras of Antarctica and India, Implications for Gondwana Assembly and Paleoclimatology. Professor Sankar Chatterjee, Texas Tech University and Dr. Rajni Tewari, Birbal Sahni Institute of Paleobotany (BSIP)will undertake exchange visits in order to finalize a comparative study on the morphology and palynology of Glossopteris and Dicroidium floras. The collaborators will also study their utility in paleobiogeography and climate evolution, which has never been integrated or synthesized in any detail. Excellent collections of Permo-Triassic Gondwana floras from India are currently housed at the BSIP, and similar contemporary floras from Antarctica are at the Museum of Texas Tech University. This award supports a unique scientific collaboration between the two investigators who will study and compare the Permo-Triassic floras of India and Antarctica and explore their significance in paleobiogeography and paleoclimatology. The collaboration will integrate the expertise of the investigators and institutional resources, as well as strengthen the USPI?s proposal, which will be submitted to the GEO/EAR Sedimentary Geology & Paleobiology Program following this planning visit.

该奖项支持美国-印度规划访问：南极洲和印度的植物群，对冈瓦那大会和古气候学的影响。德克萨斯理工大学的Sankar Chatterjee教授和Birbal Sahni古植物学研究所(BSIP)的Rajni Tewari博士将进行互访，以完成对舌蕨属和双柄蕨属植物的形态和孢粉学的比较研究。合作者还将研究它们在古生物地理学和气候演变中的作用，这些作用从未被整合或合成过任何细节。来自印度的优秀的二叠纪-三叠纪冈瓦那植物群目前被收藏在BSIP，来自南极洲的类似的当代植物群被收藏在德克萨斯理工大学博物馆。该奖项支持两位研究人员之间独特的科学合作，他们将研究和比较印度和南极洲的二叠纪-三叠纪植物群，并探索它们在古生物地理学和古气候学中的意义。这项合作将整合研究人员的专业知识和机构资源，并加强美国地质调查局的S提案，该提案将在这次规划访问后提交给地球观测组织/地球物理研究所沉积地质与古生物学项目。
