摘要


    

Through the comprehensive analysis of the buried fossil woods characteristics,  rock-layer facies and sedimentary environment,  the authors consider that they are adult trees growing near the bank of river,  and spacing in the rows ranging from 38 meters,  which formed the good plant communities with a certain spatial structure. Then, the uplift of the vicinal mountains and the development of arid climate in this area, the plants were buried and the metasomatism with plaster took place, and then formed the calcium sulfate fossil woods, which could show the climate deteriorated in the region since the early Miocene.
