Fossils to the Rescue! How Paleontology Saves the Day in Geology.



Paleontology is a vital tool for geologists because fossils preserved in rocks offer a window into Earth’s past. By studying fossils, geologists can determine the relative ages of rock layers, reconstruct ancient environments, and even date rocks in some cases. This knowledge helps geologists understand the history of our planet and the processes that shaped its landscapes.
