Iran's Climatic Change in the Holocene
Introduction Paleoclimatics studies can respond the many uncertainties about past climate change; an issue that is being studied seriously in the world but less attention has been paid in Iran. The Late Quaternary can be considered as Holocene. Holocene, which spans over 11,000 years ago; In general, it is considered as a period with relatively warm and stable climatic conditions.

15 صفحه اولRapid change in host use of the common cuckoo Cuculus canorus linked to climate change.
Parasites require synchrony with their hosts so if host timing changes with climate change, some parasites may decline and eventually go extinct. Residents and short-distance migrant hosts of the brood parasitic common cuckoo, Cuculus canorus, have advanced their phenology in response to climate change more than long-distance migrants, including the cuckoo itself. Because different parts of Eur...
متن کاملTheoretical perspectives on rapid evolutionary change
Rapid evolutionary change is a common outcome of strong phenotypic selection—from exposure to unusual temperatures to attack by unfamiliar parasites to growth on new food resources—organisms evolve rapidly under challenging circumstances as long as the requisite genetic variation is present. As recounted throughout this book, revolutionary changes in sequencing technology and bioinformatics hav...
متن کاملMammalian Response to Cenozoic Climatic Change
Multiple episodes of rapid and gradual climatic changes influenced the evolution and ecology of mammalian species and communities throughout the Cenozoic. Climatic change influenced the abundance, genetic diversity, morphology, and geographic ranges of individual species. Within communities these responses interacted to catalyze immigration, speciation, and extinction. Combined they affected lo...
