Origin of the tropical–polar biodiversity contrast

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 1207-1227, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim The aim was to investigate the evolutionary origins of the striking biodiversity contrast between high‐ and low‐latitude regions in the present day. Is this a relatively recent phenomenon, causally linked in some way to the greenhouse–icehouse transition and onset of global cooling c.

Effects of ocean acidification on Antarctic marine organisms: A meta‐analysis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 10, Page 4495-4514, May 2020., 2020
Antarctic waters are among the most vulnerable in the world to ocean acidification due to their cold temperatures, naturally low levels of calcium carbonate and upwelling that brings deep CO2‐rich waters to the surface. This meta‐analysis demonstrates groups of Antarctic marine biota in waters south of 60°S have a range of tolerances to ocean ...
