12 cze 2020 · Over the coming decades, some continuing loss of species is inevitable given the current human domination of Earth's systems, so we suggest an ambitious but achievable rate: keeping described species extinctions to well below 20 per year over the next 100 years (see the figure).
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).
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.
4 paź 2024 · We found that primary extinction selectivity based on tiering (i.e., where in the water/sediment column an organism resides), with strongest extinction selectivity against infaunal (i.e ...
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...
