An overview of techniques applied to the extraction of non-pollen palynomorphs, their known taphonomic issues and recommendations to maximize recovery
This chapter synthesizes the most common processing techniques applied to palynomorphs
and their known issues. We primarily focus on non-pollen palynomorphs (NPPs), but include …

Improving the taxonomy of fossil pollen using convolutional neural networks and superresolution microscopy
Taxonomic resolution is a major challenge in palynology, largely limiting the ecological and
evolutionary interpretations possible with deep-time fossil pollen data. We present an …
