TL;DR: An exhaustive review and reanalysis of geological, paleontological, and molecular records converge upon a cohesive narrative of gradually emerging land and constricting seaways, with formation of the Isthmus of Panama sensu stricto around 2.8 Ma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hopping hotspots: global shifts in marine biodiversity.
Willem Renema,Willem Renema,David R. Bellwood,Juan C. Braga,K. Bromfield,Robert Hall,Kenneth G. Johnson,P. Lunt,Christopher P. Meyer,L. B. McMonagle,L. B. McMonagle,Robert J. Morley,Aaron O'Dea,Jonathan A. Todd,Frank P. Wesselingh,Moyra E.J. Wilson,John M. Pandolfi +16 more
TL;DR: The antiquity of the taxa in the modern Indo-Australian Archipelago hotspot emphasizes the role of pre-Pleistocene events in shaping modern diversity patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring Past Biodiversity
TL;DR: It is argued that a limited number of intensive and consistent sampling projects could maximize the understanding of the overall pattern and trends in past marine biodiversity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental change preceded Caribbean extinction by 2 million years
Aaron O'Dea,Jeremy B. C. Jackson,Helena M. Fortunato,J. Travis Smith,Luis D'Croz,Kenneth G. Johnson,Jonathan A. Todd +6 more
TL;DR: Time lag suggests that something other than environmental change per se was involved in extinction that does not occur as a single event, and understanding cause and effect will require more taxonomically refined analysis of the changing abundance and distribution patterns of different ecological guilds in the 2 million years leading up to the relatively sudden peak in extinction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stratigraphic distributions of genera and species of Neogene to Recent Caribbean reef corals
TL;DR: In this paper, a collection of 49 genera and 175 species using Neogene occurrences in the Cibao Valley sequence of the northern Dominican Republic and faunal lists for 24 Miocene to Recent sites across the Caribbean region is presented.
