The lack of
macrofossil plant remains do not rule out or indicate that the area could have been a wetland in the past.

macrofossil associations and their significance in the depositional sequences," Sedimentary Geology, vol.
While the results of faunal, insect, pollen, and
macrofossil studies have been published elsewhere, it is notable that references to these works serve as a valuable introduction to these related studies.
These authors also mentioned the occurrence of important
macrofossil associations near the city of Pamplona.
Diatom analysis and plant
macrofossil survey was performed in all sections.
In the research, four different types of archaeological documents were examined: the
macrofossil remains of the leaves, fruits or seeds of psychoactive plants; residues suggestive of alcoholic beverages; psychoactive alkaloids found in archaeological artifacts and skeletal remains from prehistoric times; and artistic depictions of mood-altering plant species and drinking scenes.
Some of these species are proven relics, based on
macrofossil and pollen evidences (BIRKS & WILLIS, 2008).
This alternation has quite changed into calcite megacrysts upward, lacking any
macrofossil. However, its main foraminifers are Asterigerina rotula (Kaufmann et.
Lithological,
macrofossil, grain-size, elemental (C, N), and [sup.210]Pb analyses of the samples were performed.
The identification of >40 taxa of plant
macrofossil in 14 rodent middens collected from 2, 800 to 3,590 m at the latitude of Arica (18[degrees]S) provided snapshots of vegetation in the northermost Atacama desert over the past 3000 years.
The flora and fauna of this shale is dominated by the microfossil groups foraminifera, radiolaria, diatoms, and
macrofossil groups like filamentous algae, cetaceans, sirenians, pinnipeds, fish, birds, ostracod crustaceans, bivalves, gastropods, bryozoans, polychaetes, leaves, and woody plant debris (Buckeridge & Finger 2001).
