摘要: The fossil record of the earth shows that faunal and floral extinctions increased dramatically during certain periods. These “paleo” upheavals like those at end Permian Cretaceous have long provided punctuations geologists paleontologists use to divide geological A challenging question in conservation science is whether processes affecting extinction rates today are helpful interpreting past and, conversely, prehistoric useful for understanding recent extinctions.
