30 maj 2018 · Micro- and nannofossil, trace fossil and geochemical evidence from the Chicxulub impact crater demonstrates that proximity to the asteroid impact site did not determine rates of recovery of marine...
6 lut 2009 · The long-term effects of mass extinctions on spatial and evolutionary dynamics have been poorly studied. Here we show that the evolutionary consequences of the end-Cretaceous [Cretaceous/Paleogene (K/Pg)] mass extinction persist in present-day biogeography.
11 maj 2016 · The end-Cretaceous mass extinction ranks among the most severe extinctions of all time; however, patterns of extinction and recovery remain incompletely understood. In particular, it is unclear how severe the extinction was, how rapid the recovery was and how sampling biases might affect our understanding of these processes.
8 gru 2021 · The end-Cretaceous Chicxulub impact triggered Earth’s last mass-extinction, extinguishing ~ 75% of species diversity and facilitating a global ecological shift to mammal-dominated biomes.
The Cretaceous/Palaeogene mass extinction eradicated 76% of species on Earth 1,2 . It was caused by the impact of an asteroid<sup>3,4</sup> on the Yucatán carbonate platform in the southern Gulf of Mexico 66 million years ago <sup>5</sup> , forming the Chicxulub impact crater<sup>6,7</sup>. …
31 lip 2024 · Our results suggest that the end-Cretaceous mass extinction triggered integrated patterns of evolution across avian genomes, physiology, and life history near the dawn of the modern bird radiation.
25 wrz 2019 · The end Cretaceous bolide impact stripped the ocean of diversity and biogeochemical function 1 more abruptly than any other mass extinction event, including the current anthropogenically induced...
