Palaeobiology: Rapid succession during mass extinction

Research output: Contribution to journalComment/debate (Academic Journal)peer-review

Abstract

The mass extinction at the end of the Permian period was a time of considerable ecological upheaval. A new study shows that in Southern Africa top predators replaced each other in succession across the end-Permian interval, suggesting that ecological crisis preceded the mass extinction.
