Ronny Roßler

I am a geologist/palaeontologist interested in fossil forests and their various pathways to be preserved. Current research mainly concerns the composition, ecology and interactions of plants, animals and microorganisms in late Paleozoic ecosystems. My studies, usually accompanied by broad international cooperation, specifically focus on the morphology, anatomy, evolution and taphonomy of early Permian plants and arthropods and the role of volcanism in providing exceptional fossil assemblages.
