- In 2003, paleobotanist Hermann Pfefferkorn of Penn’s School of Arts & Sciences and colleague Jun Wang of China’s Nanjing Institute of Geology and Paleontology made a remarkable find: a fossil forest, spectacularly preserved in a volcanic ash fall 300 million years ago. The site, in a mining area in northern China’s Wuda District, has provided a rich source of fossil specimens ever since.
