==Particle analysis==
Particle analysis involves computer-assisted automated measurement and classification of size and color information of fossils and outline shape. To date, analysis of particle images has been applied largely to kerogen particles in transmitted, reflected, and fluorescent light. The results show promise for interpreting paleoenvironments, identifying source rock intervals, estimating thermal maturity of sediments, and refining biostratigraphic correlation.
