Global late Quaternary megafauna extinctions linked to humans, not climate change [PDF]

, 2014
The late Quaternary megafauna extinction was a severe global-scale event. Two factors, climate change and modern humans, have received broad support as the primary drivers, but their absolute and relative importance remains controversial.

The Azores: A Mid-Atlantic Hotspot for Marine Megafauna Research and Conservation

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The increasing public perception that marine megafauna is under threat is an outstanding incentive to investigate their essential habitats (EMH), their responses to human and climate change pressures, and to better understand their largely unexplained ...

Megafauna Seed Dispersal in the Neotropics: A Meta-Analysis Shows No Genetic Signal of Loss of Long-Distance Seed Dispersal

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
Restricted gene flow may lead to the loss of genetic diversity and higher genetic differentiation among populations, but the genetic consequences of megafauna extinction for plant populations still remain to be assessed.

Long-term change in benthopelagic fish abundance in the abyssal northeast Pacific Ocean [PDF]

, 2006
Food web structure, particularly the relative importance of bottom-up and top-down control of animal abundances, is poorly known for the Earth's largest habitats: the abyssal plains.

Embracing Complexity and Complexity-Awareness in Marine Megafauna Conservation and Research

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Conservation of marine megafauna is nested within an intricate tapestry of multiple ocean resource uses which are, in turn, embedded in a dynamic and complex ecological ocean system that varies and shifts across a wide range of spatial and temporal ...
