註釋From Chapter 1. Introduction and Summary. "The principal goals and objectives for the Grand Canyon National Park Centennial Paleontological Resource Inventory were to identify the scope, significance, distribution and management issues associated with the fossils of the park. Through this effort we compiled baseline paleontological resource information for park managers and staff to better understand the non-renewable resources under their stewardship, and in turn help to inform park planning and decision-making which may relate to park fossils. This publication is written for park managers, in the language and content most useful for considering the many aspects of management, protection, interpretation and scientific study of National Park Service fossils. ... [This publication] represents the largest such inventory in National Park Service history. ... This work represents the compilation of historical and current research and fossil collections associated with paleontology of Grand Canyon National Park. In addition, fossils documented from outside the administrative boundaries of the park, from the greater Grand Canyon region, have also been considered as part of this inventory. ... The study of the paleontological resources at Grand Canyon are brief, spanning slightly more than 160 years since the first fossils were collected from Diamond Creek during the Ives Expedition in 1858. ... This report is intended to provide a baseline of paleontological resource information as of the 100th anniversary of Grand Canyon National Park in 2019."
