American Association for the Advancement of Science

The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) is an American international non-profit organization with the stated mission of promoting cooperation among scientists, defending scientific freedom, encouraging scientific responsibility, and supporting scientific education and science outreach for the betterment of all humanity.

Cambrian

The Cambrian is the first geological period of the Paleozoic Era, and the Phanerozoic Eon.

See Brooksella and Cambrian

Charles Doolittle Walcott

Cnidaria

Cnidaria is a phylum under kingdom Animalia containing over 11,000 species of aquatic animals found both in fresh water and marine environments (predominantly the latter), including jellyfish, hydroids, sea anemones, corals and some of the smallest marine parasites.

See Brooksella and Cnidaria

Conasauga Formation

The Conasauga Formation is a geologic formation in Georgia.

See Brooksella and Conasauga Formation

Diagenesis

Diagenesis is the process that describes physical and chemical changes in sediments first caused by water-rock interactions, microbial activity, and compaction after their deposition.

See Brooksella and Diagenesis

Hexactinellid

Hexactinellid sponges are sponges with a skeleton made of four- and/or six-pointed siliceous spicules, often referred to as glass sponges.

See Brooksella and Hexactinellid

Ostium

An ostium (ostia) in anatomy is a small opening or orifice.

See Brooksella and Ostium

Palaeoworld

Palaeoworld is a peer-reviewed academic journal with a focus on palaeontology and stratigraphy research in and around China.

See Brooksella and Palaeoworld

PeerJ

PeerJ is an open access peer-reviewed scientific mega journal covering research in the biological and medical sciences.

See Brooksella and PeerJ

Pseudofossil

Pseudofossils are inorganic objects, markings, or impressions that might be mistaken for fossils. Brooksella and Pseudofossil are Pseudofossils.

See Brooksella and Pseudofossil

Sponge spicule

Spicules are structural elements found in most sponges.

See Brooksella and Sponge spicule
