Comment on this resource
Palynology is the branch of science dealing with microscopic, decay-resistant remains of certain plants and animals. It has many applications including archaeological palynology, Quaternary palynology, and stratigraphic palynology. This web site created by palynologists at the University of Arizona compiles web resources with links to organizations, references, pollen images, definitions and illustrations, consultants, and products. Data files and bibliographies produced by the American Association of Stratigraphic Palynologists are downloadable from this site.
