After Earth's worst mass extinction, surviving ocean animals spread worldwide. Stanford's model shows why this happened.
Stanford scientists found that dramatic climate changes after the Great Dying enabled a few marine species to spread globally ...
Scientists don't call it the "Great Dying" for nothing. About 252 million years ago, upward of 80% of all marine species ...
A new study reveals that a region in China's Turpan-Hami Basin served as a refugium, or "life oasis," for terrestrial plants during the end-Permian mass extinction, the most severe biological crisis ...
The End-Permian mass extinction killed an estimated 80% of life on Earth, but new research suggests that plants might have ...
To understand this extinction, I wanted first to get a sense of its scale. That's difficult—sediments containing fossils from the end of the Permian are rare and often inaccessible. One site ...
About 252 million years ago, 80 to 90 percent of life on Earth was wiped out. In the Turpan-Hami Basin, life persisted and ...
Fossils in China suggest some plants survived the End-Permian extinction, indicating land ecosystems fared differently from ...
A deep dive into Earth’s distant past shows how life on land struggled to recover long after the worst warming event of all ...
