Selectivity of mass extinctions is thought to play a major role in coupling or decoupling of
taxonomic, morphological, and ecological diversity, yet these measures have never been …

Many modern extinction drivers are shared with past mass extinction events, such as rapid
climate warming, habitat loss, pollution and invasive species. This commonality presents a …
