Abstract: Abstract Hardgrounds from the Upper Ordovician strata of eastern Laurentia exhibit a wide range of morphologies, though the development of their complex surface topographies remains poorly understood. These early lithified seafloors, which can be laterally… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/pab.2020.24
Abstract: Abstract. Echinoderms make up a substantial component of Ordovician marine invertebrates, yet their speciation and dispersal history as inferred within a rigorous phylogenetic and statistical framework is lacking. We use biogeographic stochastic mapping (BSM; implemented… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/let.12233
Abstract: During the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (GOBE), the number of marine invertebrate families more than tripled. Fundamental shifts in clade dominance and ecological structure led to the rise of the Palaeozoic Fauna and the second… read more here.

The Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (GOBE) : definition, concept and duration
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Lethaia"
DOI: 10.1111/let.12259
Abstract: The Ordovician biodiversification has been recognized since the 1960s; the term ‘The Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event’, abbreviated by many as the ‘GOBE’, has been used for the past 20 years. The conceptual development and terminology… read more here.
