Brachiopoda - Invertebrate Paleontology | GEO GIRL

[@19SAA88]

I was having trouble understanding the difference between the 2 till I saw this video! thanks for the good explanation.

[@bonniesfunstuff1585]

I have been re-watching this video for at least a year to help identify the Pennsylvanian sub-period fossils that I’m finding in my area. There is so much solid, easy-to-understand information packed into this video that it is a favorite reference. Thanks so much! ❤

[@PacificEagle_official]

As a Geology student when you have a background in mathematics it is very difficult to remember the name of paleontology terminology, but I loved how you explained brachiopod in a very easy way...thank you🙏 from India 🇮🇳

[@GEOGIRL]

Thank you, so glad you found it easy to understand! :D

[@jheadley635]

I'll never understand why you don't have a million subscribers. Thank you for all you do!

[@GEOGIRL]

Wow, you are too sweet for saying that, thank you! I hope one day I'll get there! ;D

[@nimanator]

Fantastic video, I'm doing my master's thesis on brachiopods and found the style of info given here to be a very good method of talking about the background of the brachiopoda. Thank you for teaching the world about such an amazing topic lol

[@GEOGIRL]

Of course! Thanks so much for the comment, I am so glad you liked it and the way it was taught :D Best of luck with your masters!! 👍

@@GEOGIRL You have no idea how hard it is to find good videos on Brachiopods.

[@imranahmad7835]

I’m watching you since 2020. It’s always helpful

[@JoesFirewoodVideos]

I don’t know why KZbin keeps recommending your videos to me but I keep watching them so today I hit the subscribe button. Keep making the awesome content GEO girl.

[@GEOGIRL]

Hahaha I am not sure why either but I am glad it did, thanks for the support! I’ll give it my best:)

[@chouaib2470]

Geo girl. I am a paleontologist, I have been teaching paleontology for two years, I lately came across this channel. It's really helpful.

[@MohammadAli-sg8bj]

Thanks for making such videos, I was just working on an assignment related to extinct Brachiopod Species, I must say the video was very informative

[@GEOGIRL]

Thanks, I’m glad it could help! :)

Wow

[@frankforce9241]

Thanks for very through and interesting video. Thanks for posting. Invertebrates are really cool. Best wishes Frank

[@abeerreetsexpidition9389]

Thank you, I am 8 years old and I can't find anything on paleontology but through these videos I will be successful

[@GEOGIRL]

Wow! 8 years old and you are watching my lectures? That is determination! I am certain you will do amazing things in your life, keep it up ;)

[@abeerreetsexpidition9389]

Thank you for your wishes ❤ Keep inspiring ✨

[@brianmontgomery6184]

Thank you so much! I don't have a background in paleobiology, but am currently working in a lab where I'm separating Permian specimens by species. This is enormously helpful!!!

[@GEOGIRL]

So glad you found this video helpful! I have a whole playlist of about paleobiology if that will help you, here's the link: kzbin.info/aero/PL69bBhmsrgfuwUszXyNuyKO0DS41T2U6I Anyway, thanks for the comment & best of luck! ;D

[@sambojinbojin-sam6550]

So many things I'm learning from your channel (I was always mathsy/ physics/ chemistry in school, I kind of brain-skipped bio and geo). Thanks!

[@GEOGIRL]

I am so glad you enjoy my content! I have always been geo-y and chem-y but not so much with the math and physics, so I have been pushing myself to broaden my horizons and learn more about geophysics. Maybe someday I will upload some videos on geophysics concepts and you can give me your input! :) Anyway, thanks so much for your support!

@6:31 My first thought was omg we are all inside out brachiopods...hahaha

[@kadinketterling7276]

This was a great video, with enough information to be helpful, but not so much it got boring

[@strawjam59]

My wife found this cluster of fossils in our backyard buried just below the surface, I'm assuming it was put there by someone because we live in easter Pennsylvania. It is loaded with brachiopids mostly halves or pieces, however the cross section reveals complete spirifers embedded. I'm wondering where this most likely came from and how old was this deposition that formed these fossils ?

[@GEOGIRL]

Well during the Paleozoic Era, Pennsylvania was a coastal environment where shallow water invertebrates like brachiopods would have thrived! I wish I could be a bit more specific in terms of time interval, but unfortunately the spirifers had a pretty long time range, so the cluster you found could be anywhere from ~400 - 250 million years old. Hope that helps you! That's so cool that you found those! :D

[@WizardClipAudio]

I can actually always find a few brachiopod fossils in the creek, or in my back yard. The largest most pristine specimen I ever found was actually in a random gravel pile next to a doctors office, like 400 miles away.

[@GEOGIRL]

Haha wow cool! Yea, there are certain periods throughout Earth's history in which these guys are everywhere! :D

[@WizardClipAudio]

@@GEOGIRL Yeah, there’s quite an interesting diversity of different kinds of stone in and around next to Oak’s creek. I reckon cause it was right in the path of some glacial sheets that mixed up all the strata together.

[@windwhipped5]

I have great spiriferds from the Upper Windom memeber of the Hamilton group Geneseo NY. I have several of all these groups from that formation.

[@wcdeich4]

Some people think Linguliformes survived the end Permian mass extinction b/c they use Calcium Phosphate that is more resistant to ocean acidification than Calcium Carbonate.

[@GEOGIRL]

Oh interesting! Thanks for sharing that tid bit! :D

[@SanjanaKumari-os7qu]

Very well explained 🤧🤧🤧

[@GEOGIRL]

Thank you :)

[@BarelloSmith]

Thank you SO much for this!!! So organised and clearly presented!

[@Deepakgehlot1]

Amazing..

[@Reidflicksbruh]

Me n a friend found a fossil site, we think they are either brachiopods or bivalves (or both) we have also seen some that dont look like either at all. It's part of the moenkopi formation and both brachiopods and bivalves are common in this formation

[@AlEndo01]

Maybe it's my medical background (endocrinology), but I would much prefer more on how these organisms "work" (physiology) rather than the "stamp collecting" criteria on shell morphology. I greatly enjoy almost all the presentations.

[@pritsahu7]

Thank You madam... This video will help me a lot🎈🎈

Maybe im just a weirdo, but i wonder if they are edible? I have some fossils from my uncle at my parent's house that I need to take a closer look at to see which type of brachiopod they are

We want more videos on other topics of geology🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@GEOGIRL]

Trust me, I want that too! haha It is just easier for me to work one playlist at a time. But I promise, I have so many diverse geo-topics planned for future videos! Also, if you ever have any ideas I am all ears :)

are you teaching from a pdf?

Nope, I use information from a textbook (link in the video description) to make the powerpoint slides then I just zoom record myself presenting the powerpoint slides. :)
