Impacts of global warming on Permo-Triassic terrestrial ecosystems
Geologists and palaeontologists have expressed mixed views about the effects of the end-
Permian mass extinction on continental habitats and on terrestrial life. Current work …

Temperature-dependent hypoxia explains biogeography and severity of end-Permian marine mass extinction
INTRODUCTION Climate change triggered by volcanic greenhouse gases is hypothesized
to have caused the largest mass extinction in Earth's history at the end of the Permian Period …

Climate‐driven increases in storm frequency simplify kelp forest food webs
Climate models predict a dramatic increase in the annual frequency and severity of extreme
weather events during the next century. Here we show that increases in the annual …

[HTML][HTML] The stability and collapse of marine ecosystems during the Permian-Triassic mass extinction
The history of Earth's biodiversity is punctuated episodically by mass extinctions. These are
characterized by major declines of taxon richness, but the accompanying ecological …
