19 cze 2015 · We used the IUCN data to calculate modern extinction rates in two ways: (i) we estimate a “highly conservative modern extinction rate” by using the data exclusively on species listed as EX, and (ii) we calculate a “conservative extinction rate” by including also both EW and PE species (table S2).
23 lis 2022 · It is said that a sixth mass extinction is already underway. However, the future extinction magnitude has not been quantitatively estimated.
13 sty 2022 · Summary: The history of life on Earth has been marked five times by events of mass biodiversity extinction caused by extreme natural phenomena. Today, many experts warn that a Sixth Mass...
1 lut 2020 · Current mass extinction is underway through anthropogenic activities, widespread diseases, and the possibility of extraterrestrial bolide impacts.
It has been claimed that the Sixth Mass Extinction may be underway, this time caused entirely by humans. Although considerable evidence indicates that there is a biodiversity crisis of increasing extinctions and plummeting abundances, some do not accept that this amounts to a Sixth Mass Extinction.
4 sie 2021 · Here, we analyze magnitudes and rates of temperature change and extinction rates of marine fossils through the past 450 million years (Myr).
17 mar 2021 · By studying Earth’s past mass extinction events, we can draw a clearer picture of what the aftermath of human impact on ecosystems will look like. We may also be able to more accurately predict how vulnerable species will recover from the sixth major mass extinction, if at all.
