The present study is directed toward understanding the mode of growth, and determining the effect of environmental factors on such growth, of well-preserved stromatolites occurring in the lower part of the Middle Proterozoic Missoula Group, Glacier National Park, Montana. These stromatolites and contained microfossils provide a sound basis for understanding the nature of the complex interplay between environmental and biological factors that have resulted in their formation.
