	Journal of Taphonomy - http://www.journaltaphonomy.com The aim of the Journal of Taphonomy is to facilitate the academic spread of information that is basic to the interpretation of past systems of biotic interaction. Provides submission and subscription information.
	Taphonomy: Learning from the Dead - http://www.geol.vt.edu/paleo/fieldtaph.htm Description and syllabus of this field course in vertebrate and invertebrate taphonomy.
	Taphonomy - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taphonomy Information from Wikipedia on the study of decaying organisms over long periods of time. This process involves the transition of organisms from the biosphere to the lithosphere as they become fossilized.
	Shelf and Slope Experimental Taphonomy Initiative - http://vertigo.hsrl.rutgers.edu/SSETI.html SSETI is an undersea research program which aims to use controlled experiments to measure modern processes of decay, alteration, and burial in order to better understand taphonomic processes.
	Plant Fossils and Their Preservation - http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/IB181/VPL/Pres/PresTitle.html Includes a section of conditions required for plant fossil preservation, the various levels of preservation, and types of fossils.

	International Plant Taphonomy Meeting - http://www.mineralogie.uni-wuerzburg.de/tapho/tapho1.html Informal workshops focusing on recent developments in the science of plant taphonomy. Meeting information and abstracts.
	Shelf and Slope Environmental Taphonomy Initiative - http://www.sidsnet.org/successtories/6.html Research project to measure taphonomic rates in a range of continental shelf and slope environments of deposition.
	Taphonomy and Preservation - http://paleo.cortland.edu/tutorial/Taphonomy%26Pres/taphonomy.htm Comprehensive tutorial on taphonomy and preservation from the State University of New York at Cortland.
	Taphonomy of the Rhynie Chert - http://www.abdn.ac.uk/rhynie/tapho.htm University of Aberdeen presentation of the preservation of biota in Rhynie chert.

	Death is a Sure Bet, Fossilization is a Long Shot - http://www.colostate.edu/Depts/Entomology/courses/en570/papers_1998/spriggs.htm Paper on plant and invertebrate taphonomy by Aaron Spriggs.
	Taphonomy: The Study of Preservation - http://serc.carleton.edu/research_education/paleontology/taphonomy.html Provides an explanation of what preservation means in relation to paleontology and the deductions that can be made from examining fossils.
	Taphos 2002 - http://paleopolis.rediris.es/paleontologia/Taphos2002/ Program of the 2002 International Conference on Taphonomy and Fossilization.
	Taphonomy: New Branch of Paleontology - http://www.astro.spbu.ru/staff/serg/interests/literature/efremov/tapharticle1.html Article written by Professor Ivan Efremov in 1940 which first introduced the study of taphonomy.
	Taphonomy: Insight into Stratigraphy, Sedimentology, and Evolution - http://gsa.confex.com/gsa/2002NE/finalprogram/session_2068.htm Abstracts of taphonomy papers presented at the 2002 meeting of the Geological Society of America.
