19 cze 2015 · In nearly all comparisons of modern versus background extinction rates, the background rate has been assumed to be somewhere between 0.1 and 1 species extinction per 10,000 species per 100 years (equal to 0.1 to 1 species extinction per million species per year, a widely used metric known as E/MSY).
21 maj 2024 · The domino effect could lead to more species going extinct and eventually even to the collapse of entire ecosystems. With nearly one million plant and animal species currently under threat,...
1 maj 2015 · We critically need to know how climate change will influence species extinction rates in order to inform international policy decisions about the biological costs of failing to curb climate change and to implement specific conservation strategies to protect the most threatened species.
1 cze 2017 · We define a speciation gradient as the spatial or environmental variation in the per species rate of species origination per unit of time.
29 cze 2016 · Humanity exacerbates extinction rates. But by what mechanisms does humanity drive the emergence of new species? We review human-mediated speciation, compare speciation and known extinctions, and discuss the challenges of using net species diversity as a conservation objective.
7 kwi 2022 · Species extinction-risk footprints. Input–output analysis can also be applied at a species level to identify the locations and sectors of consumption which are driving the extinction-risk...
21 maj 2024 · Accelerating extinction rate triggers domino effect of biodiversity loss. While nearly one million species are currently at risk of extinction, the United Nations University (UNU) is drawing ...
