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,...
19 cze 2015 · A growing body of evidence indicates that current species extinction rates are higher than the pre-human background rate (8–15), with hundreds of anthropogenic vertebrate extinctions documented in prehistoric and historic times (16–23).
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...
12 lip 2023 · In this paper, using a niche-orientated community model we compare and contrast two different mechanisms and find contrasting patterns of extinction debt. From small fragments, we typically see the rapid initial loss of many species, followed by a slower loss of species on larger timescales.
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.
6 maj 2019 · PARIS, 6 May – Nature is declining globally at rates unprecedented in human history – and the rate of species extinctions is accelerating, with grave impacts on people around the world now...
23 lis 2022 · The ongoing species extinction rates, which reached the 1% level on land and the 0% level in seas from 1800–1900 to 2010 1, 2, 3, are far from the major mass extinction magnitude (> 60%) 4;...
