By analyzing the Cenozoic fossil record of various marine plankton groups, we found that autotrophy is linked to reduced extinction risk over evolutionary timescales. These findings may help inform modern conservation planning in light of a changing world 🌡️🌍 (2/3)

We show that history DOES matter when assessing risk status of marine organisms, thus providing another example of the utility of paleosciences in modern conservation efforts 🐟 🪸 🌡️ 🌊 (2/2) @dfg.de @paleosynth.bsky.social

Happy to announce the publication of our new study!📝‪Ádám T. Kocsis, @kiessl.bsky.social‬, and I examined occupancy trajectory and its influence on extinction risk in marine microplankton! 🔬🦠🌊 (1/2) bg.copernicus.org/articles/22/...

Occupancy history influences extinction risk of fossil marine microplankton groups

Abstract. Geographic range has long been acknowledged as an important determinant of extinction risk. The trajectory of geographic range through time, however, has not received as much scientific atte...
