Subduction fluxes through geologic time
Much of my research career has been spent working both on modern oceanic volcanic systems and at the same time looking at their Archaean counterparts. Many authors have attempted to make inferences on early Earth models based on modern processes which can be increasingly well constrained. In this short review I show how we are beginning to understand and quantify inputs to modern subduction sys...
متن کاملTrichoptera Phylogeny, Adaptations, and Biogeography Through Geologic Time
Trichoptera are a well-studied group of aquatic insects that are recognized by both entomologists and limnologists, for their especially peculiar habit of building nets and cases. The phylogeny of the order is a point of controversy with systamatists. However, the knowledge of their biogeography and their water quality and temperature tolerance provides great promise for the study of past aquat...
متن کاملThe Decapoda (crustacea) as Predators on Mollusca through Geologic Time
The relationship between predator and prey is a persistent theme in marine paleontology. Herein we focus on the decapod Crustacea, the shrimps, lobsters, and crabs, and their role as predators on the Mollusca through geologic time. Five major means by which decapods crush shells or eat shelled prey might be recorded in the body-fossil record, as they require specialization of the appendages. Th...
متن کاملHow has our knowledge of dinosaur diversity through geologic time changed through research history?
Assessments of dinosaur macroevolution at any given time can be biased by the historical publication record. Recent studies have analysed patterns in dinosaur diversity that are based on secular variations in the numbers of published taxa. Many of these have employed a range of approaches that account for changes in the shape of the taxonomic abundance curve, which are largely dependent on data...
متن کاملOre metals through geologic history.
The ores of chromite, nickel, copper, and zinc show a wide distribution over geologic time, but those of iron, titanium, lead, uranium, gold, silver, molybdenum, tungsten, and tin are more restricted. Many of the limitations to specific time intervals are probably imposed by the evolving tectonic history of Earth interacting with the effects of the biomass on the evolution of the earth's s surf...
