Resumen
La diversidad de invertebrados marinos muestra una saturación limitada, con aumentos de puntos calientes. Esto sugiere que los nichos ecológicos y la estabilidad del sistema terrestre influyeron en las tendencias mundiales de biodiversidad.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Paleontología
- Biología marina
- Teoría ecológica
Sus antecedentes:
- El registro fósil de los invertebrados marinos ha sido debatido durante mucho tiempo con respecto a los límites de la diversidad marina global.
- La teoría ecológica postula que el aumento de la diversidad y los nichos llenos fortalecen las interacciones biológicas, limitando el crecimiento de la diversidad.
- El grado en que las interacciones biológicas han limitado la diversidad evolutiva sigue siendo una pregunta abierta.

01:50Threats to Biodiversity
22.8K
There have been five major extinction events throughout geological history, resulting in the elimination of biodiversity, followed by a rebound of species that adapted to the new conditions. In the current geological epoch, the Holocene, there is a sixth extinction event in progress. This mass extinction has been attributed to human activities and is thus provisionally called the Anthropocene. In 2019 the human population reached 7.7 billion people and is projected to comprise 10 billion by...

02:56The Fossil Record
25.4K
The fossil record documents only a small fraction of all organisms that have ever inhabited Earth. Fossilization is a rare process, and most organisms never become fossils. Moreover, the fossil record only exhibits fossils that have been discovered. Nevertheless, sedimentary rock fossils of long-lived, abundant, hard-bodied organisms dominate the fossil record. These fossils offer valuable information, such as an organism's physical form, behavior, and age. Studying the fossil record helps...

02:35What is Evolutionary History?
39.5K
Scientists record evolutionary history by analyzing fossil, morphological, and genetic data. The fossil record documents the history of life on Earth and provides evidence for evolution. However, both fossil and living organisms offer evidence that outlines Earth’s evolutionary history.

02:31Habitat Fragmentation
17.8K
Habitat fragmentation describes the division of a more extensive, continuous habitat into smaller, discontinuous areas. Human activities such as land conversion, as well as slower geological processes leading to changes in the physical environment, are the two leading causes of habitat fragmentation. The fragmentation process typically follows the same steps: perforation, dissection, fragmentation, shrinkage, and attrition.

Conservation of declining population focuses on ways of detecting, diagnosing, and halting a population decline. The approach uses methods to prevent populations from going extinct.

01:39Keystone Species
22.0K
Measures of species biodiversity, such as richness (i.e., the number of species present) and evenness (i.e., their relative abundance), describe an ecological community’s structure. Many factors affect community structure, including abiotic factors (e.g., sunlight and nutrients), disturbances (e.g., fire or flood), species interactions (e.g., predation or competition), and chance events (e.g., foreign species invasion). Certain species—such as keystone species—also play a...
