A team of geoscientists has revisited Edwin McKee's foundational studies of the Grand Canyon's geology, using modern technology to uncover new insights into ancient climate and life. Their research, supported by the National Science Foundation, updates our understanding of the Cambrian Tonto Group, revealing details about sea-level rise and the evolution of early marine life. This work underscores the evolving nature of scientific inquiry and deepens our connection to Earth's history.
