We have compiled stratigraphic ranges of genera of calcareous nannofossils, calcispheres, planktonic foraminifers, larger benthic foraminifers, corals and rudists bivalves, and species …
Abstract The Triassic Period records important ecological transitions in the aftermath of the end-Permian mass extinction and is a key interval in the evolution of modern coral reefs …
Unbiased time series of diversity dynamics are vital for quantifying the grand history of life. Applications include identifying ancient mass extinctions and inferring both biotic and abiotic …

The Paleobiology Database (PBDB; https://paleobiodb. org) consists of geographically and temporally explicit, taxonomically identified fossil occurrence data. The taxonomy utilized by …
Abstract The Cretaceous Period was marked by the formation of numerous large igneous provinces (LIPs), several of which were associated with geologically rapid climate …
A study of the paleoenvironmental evolution of the middle Eocene platforms recognized in the westernmost Tethys has been carried out in the well-exposed middle Eocene …
Biodiversity on Earth is shaped by abiotic perturbations and rapid diversifications. At the same time, there are arguments that biodiversity is bounded and regulated via biotic …
The latitudinal biodiversity gradient (LBG), in which species richness decreases from tropical to polar regions, is a pervasive pattern of the modern biosphere. Although the distribution of …
Investigating the fossil record to provide evidence about the response of shallow-water tropical calcifiers to past warming events is crucial considering that they are severely …
