12 de jun. de 2020 · The extinction of a species represents an irreversible loss, a measurable reduction in the diversity of life on Earth, and is the ultimate concern for conservation. Although changes in species abundance or to ecological communities may be of equivalent concern ( 10 ), they are in principle, at least, reversible and recoverable.
15 de sept. de 2020 · Extinction: Urgent change needed to save species, says UN. Humanity is at a crossroads and we have to take action now to make space for nature to recover and slow its "accelerating decline". This ...
This cohort accumulated 98,334 species-years—meaning that an average species has been known for 80 years. The extinction rate is (13/98,334) × 10 6 = 132 E/MSY. The more difficult question asks how we can compare such estimates to those in the absence of human actions—i.e., the background rate of extinction.
1 de may. de 2015 · Biologists worry that the rapid rates of warming projected for the planet ( 1) will doom many species to extinction. Species could face extinction with climate change if climatically suitable habitat disappears or is made inaccessible by geographic barriers or species' inability to disperse (see the figure, panels A to E).
