Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Earth-Science Reviews"
DOI: 10.1016/j.earscirev.2020.103499
Abstract: Abstract Studies of alkaline lakes have critical biological–environmental–economic properties, but deep-time alkaline lakes are challenging to investigate. Lipid biomarkers can provide valuable insights into such lakes and their biogeochemical significance. This paper reviews and compares… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.earscirev.2021.103600
Abstract: Abstract The discovery in the 1980's that DNA could be extracted and sequenced from extinct animals opened-up a whole new area of research in paleobiology. The oldest authenticated sequence ever recovered is between 1.65 and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2019.01.068
Abstract: Increasingly environmental management seeks to limit the impacts of human activities on ecosystems relative to some 'reference' condition, which is often the presumed pre-impacted state, however such information is limited. We explore how marine ecosystems… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/aob/mcae068
Abstract: Abstract Background and aims Palm fossils are often used as evidence for warm and wet palaeoenvironments, reflecting the affinities of most modern palms. However, several extant palm lineages tolerate cool and/or arid climates, making a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/nsr/nwab027
Abstract: Abstract Current barriers hindering data-driven discoveries in deep-time Earth (DE) include: substantial volumes of DE data are not digitized; many DE databases do not adhere to FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable) principles; we lack… read more here.

Shifting seas: understanding deep-time human impacts on marine ecosystems
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences"
DOI: 10.1098/rstb.2024.0026
Abstract: Humans have interacted with, and impacted, marine ecosystems for millennia. During this time, the oceans have experienced ecosystem degradation through harvesting, habitat change, pollution, the introduction of invasive species and climate change. Despite extensive documentation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ele.13773
Abstract: Convergence in communication appears rare compared with other forms of adaptation. This is puzzling, given communication is acutely dependent on the environment and expected to converge in form when animals communicate in similar habitats. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/geb.70024
Abstract: Testing the impact of climate on diversification is a major goal of evolutionary biology. Birth‐death models like palaeoenvironment‐dependent diversification (PDD) models, for example, allow exploring the potential correlations between diversification dynamics and past environmental changes,… read more here.
