Brachiopods around the Permian-Triassic Boundary of South China: New Records of the Great Dying in South China

Editat de Wei-Hong He, G. R. Shi, Ke-Xin Zhang, Ting-Lu Yang, Shu-Zhong Shen, Yang Zhang
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 feb 2019
This timely book documents marvelous brachiopod fossils from the Palaeozoic-Mesozoic transition of South China. Numerous beautiful pictures and detailed descriptions (specifically the measurements of body size) of brachiopod species are presented. Systematic discussion on the evolution of brachiopod biodiversity and morphological features across the critical interval is not only extremely important for paleontologists to understand the marine ecosystem evolution from the Palaeozoic to the Mesozoic, but also attractive for students who need to know about the end-Permian mass extinction.
The book distinguishes itself from other studies by its detailed study of the taxonomy, biodiversity and paleoecology of Permian-Triassic brachiopods from different palaeogeographic facies, especially from the deep-water environment in South China. The book also offers a unique study of the response of morphological features of brachiopods to palaeoenvironmental changes, providing insights for the process of Permian-Triassic crisis.

She is the winner of the  Endeavour Research Fellowship awarded by Australia Government in 2009, the Winner of Education Ministry's New Century Excellent Talents Supporting Plan in 2010 and has the title of Provincial Young and Middle-aged Expert with Outstanding Contributions. She has published more than 90 papers in many peer-reviewed journals as the main author or co-author, covering Journal of Systematic Palaeontology, Journal of Paleontology, as well as Geobiology.
Prof. GR SHI works at Deakin University, Australia, where he was Personal Chair in Palaeontology and Head of School of Life and Environmental Sciences for years. He has been bestowed the title of Alfred Deakin Professor by the University Council recently. His research interests includes Permian Brachiopod, Stratigraphy and Palaeobiogeography. He has served as President of Association of Australasian Palaeontologists and also served as the lead chief investigator of 5 Australian Research Council (ARC) Discovery Project grants and a number of other national and international competitive research grants.
