Classification of the tremendous diversity of ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) began with the designation of taxonomic groups on the basis of morphological similarity. Starting in the late …
Body shape is a fundamental metric of animal diversity affecting critical behavioral and ecological dynamics and conservation status, yet previously available methods capture only …
Species richness has been found to increase from the poles to the tropics but with a small dip near the equator over all marine fishes. Phylogenetic diversity measures offer an …
A decline in diversity from the equator to the poles is a common feature of Earth's biodiversity. Here, we examine body shape diversity in marine fishes across latitudes and …

Delineating biogeographical regions can provide important insights into the processes shaping large-scale species distribution patterns. Here we aimed to 1) identify global marine …
Why certain species survive large-scale extinction events while others do not is poorly understood. While the fossil record can provide insights into morphological adaptations that …
Living and fossilized organisms represent only a tiny fraction of Earth's evolutionary history, motivating" ancestral state reconstruction" techniques that aim to infer the unobserved …
The anatomy of water, water as a substance, water as a medium, the principles of the hydrologic cycle, the economics of water, and challenges are all covered in the first chapter …
