Collapse of the mammoth-steppe in central Yukon as revealed by ancient environmental DNA
Nature Communications, 2021 ‘The timing and ecological dynamics of extinction in the late Pleistocene are not well understood. Here, the authors use sediment ancient DNA from permafrost cores to reconstruct the paleoecology of the central Yukon, finding a substantial turnover in ...

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 263-304., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Taphonomy and paleoecology of lower cretaceous oyster mass occurrences from west-central Argentina and evolutionary paleoecology of gregariousness in oysters [PDF]
, 2018 Lower Cretaceous (lower Hauterivian) oyster mass occurrences (OMOs) dominated by the gryphaeid small oyster Ceratostreon from the Neuquen Basin (west-central Argentina) are analyzed in terms of taphonomy and paleoecology in order to characterize their ...

Paleoecología ecológica: Un eslabón perdido entre ecología y evolución
Collectanea Botanica, 2014 La paleoecología es más que una disciplina ambiental, ya que proporciona las evidencias empíricas necesarias para verificar hipótesis ecológicas y contribuye a una mejor comprensión de la interfase ecología-evolución.

The Paleoecology of Microplastic Contamination
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2020 While the ubiquity and rising abundance of microplastic contamination is becoming increasingly well-known, there is very little empirical data for the scale of their historical inputs to the environment. For many pollutants, where long-term monitoring is
