Sampling and Faunal Turnover in Early Eocene Mammals
Badgley, C. and Gingerich, P. D., 1988. Sampling and faunal turnover in Early Eocene mammals. Palaeogeogr., Palaeoclimatol., Palaeoecol., 63: 141-157. Faunal turnovers in the fossil record are episodes of synchronous appearance and disappearance of species from a community, often resulting in net change in species richness. We studied the biostratigraphic record of faunal turnover involving ear...
متن کاملSpectral ordering and biochronology of European fossil mammals
—Spectral algorithms have been shown to work well in a wide range of situations that involve the task of ordering. When applied to the localities of a set of European Neogene land mammal taxa, spectral ordering relies almost entirely on the most common genera, depends on connectivity more than on length of taxon lists, and is robust to noise from rarer and less connected taxa. The spectral coef...
متن کامل3 Testing Models of Faunal Turnover with Neogene Mammals from Pakistan
mammalian faunas. This model is a modified form of Vrba’s turnover-pulse hypothesis, which posits that changes in the physical environment drive speciation, extinction, and local faunal turnover (Vrba 1995a). Model 2 emphasizes the dominance of species with large population sizes and large geographic ranges through intervals of environmental change. This model arises from the literature about m...
متن کاملCenozoic bolide impacts and biotic change in North American mammals.
North American mammals experienced a major mass extinction at the Cretaceous/Tertiary (K/T) boundary that is tied unambiguously to the Chicxulub impact event. Immediately afterwards, there was an immense adaptive radiation that greatly expanded taxonomic diversity and the range of body sizes and ecological strategies. However, ties between later, Cenozoic impact events and specific episodes in ...
متن کاملAssociations between Western and Mediterranean-type dietary patterns and depression in adults in Shiraz
Background and aims: Depression is a growing public health problem in the world. In this study we investigated the relationship between dietary patterns and depression in adults aged 20-50 years living in Shiraz, Iran. Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 416 subjects (180 men and 236 women) aged 20 to 50 years were selected by stratified multistage rando...
