In 1961, while mapping rock exposures along the Colville River in Alaska, an oil company geologist would unknowingly find the evidence for a startlingdiscovery. Long before the North Slope of Alaska was being exploited for itspetroleum resources it was a place where dinosaurs roamed. Dinosaurs under theAurora immerses readers in the challenges, stark beauty, and hard-earned rewards ofconducting paleontological field work in the Arctic. Roland A. Gangloff recounts thesignificant discoveries of field and museum research on Arctic dinosaurs, mostnotably of the last 25 years when the remarkable record of dinosaurs from Alaska wascompiled. This research has changed the way we think about dinosaurs and theirworld. Examining long-standing controversies, such as the end-Cretaceous extinctionof dinosaurs and whether dinosaurs were residents or just seasonal visitors to polarlatitudes, Gangloff takes readers on a delightful and instructive journey into theworld of paleontology as it is conducted in the land under the aurora.
