GEOL 2330 - Evolution & Extinction of Dinosaurs
Dinosaurs reigned as the dominant group of terrestrial animals for nearly 150 million years - an unimaginably long time by human standards. The extinction of most dinosaurs 65 million years ago allowed the radiation of mammalian lineages. What are dinosaurs? Why did they prosper so long and why did they become extinct? This course will examine current ideas and controversies regarding dinosaur evolution, extinction, paleoenvironments, and physiology.
