The fossil record is the primary source of data used to study predator-prey interactions in
deep time and to evaluate key questions regarding the evolutionary and ecological …

The benthic community around Antarctica is diverse and highly endemic. These cold-
adapted species are under threat from local and global drivers, including warming …

We are beginning to appreciate that the origin of the modern Antarctic marine fauna is
related to a series of key events throughout the Cenozoic era. In the first of these, the mass …

Cold-water conditions have excluded durophagous (skeleton-breaking) predators from the
Antarctic seafloor for millions of years. Rapidly warming seas off the western Antarctic …

Notothenioid fishes, a perciform group, radiated in the cold shelf waters around the Antarctic
continent and the 110 species dominate fish diversity, abundance, and biomass at levels …

Over the last few decades, numerous geological studies have been carried out in the South
Shetland Islands, which have greatly contributed to a better understanding of its geological …

Rapidly rising sea temperatures off the western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) are placing the
Antarctic benthos at risk of increasing predation from durophagous (shell‐breaking) …

Antarctic sea-floor communities are unique, and more closely resemble those of the
Palaeozoic than equivalent contemporary habitats. However, comparatively little is known …

Taxonomic and ecological recovery from the Cretaceous–Palaeogene (K–Pg) mass
extinction 66 million years ago shaped the composition and structure of modern ecosystems …

Abstract The Marine Mesozoic Revolution (MMR, starting~ 200 million years ago) changed
the ecological structure of sea floor communities due to increased predation pressure. It was …
