Contributions To The Knowledge Of Flora And Vegetation Of The Tertiary In The Extracarpathian Area Of Romania, RăZvan Givulescu
Studia UBB Geologia
The author presents the fossil flora and vegetation of the extracarpathian regions of Romania: on one hand, the Eocene-Oligocene-Late Dacian fossil floras from the southern area, and on the other hand - the Sarmatian ones from the eastern area. It is insisted on the Sarmatian as compared to the one from Transylvania. There are important similarities with the southern area, but none as concerns the eastern one. The characteristic feature of the area comprised between the Carpathians and the Prut is the absence of the Lauraceae and the massive presence of Betulaceae.

The purpose of the study is to identify and quantify the hydrologic and ecologic differences between two adjacent sections of Colt Creek; one section unaltered and one section altered by clearing and drainage. These differences were measured by monitoring water levels, groundcover vegetation in each of the two areas, and monitoring numbers and species of birds utilizing the two areas. Surface water levels were measured in three locations: in the historic Colt Creek flow way, in the ditch draining the creek, and in an adjacent wetland strand. In addition, a shallow monitor well in the creek was used to measure …
