Use Cases

• Analyze fossil fungi record distributions linked to Source_of_record_IDs and Supporting_literature_IDs for paleoecological studies
• Cross-reference Citation_IDs between records and citations tables to trace data provenance
• Study temporal or taxonomic patterns within the 3484 Cenozoic fossil fungi records

Strengths

• 3484 individual fossil records provide a substantive sample for analysis
• Structured linkage between records, citations, and column metadata via identifier columns
