Bivalves and evolutionary resilience: Old skills and new strategies to recover from the P/T and T/J extinction events
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-12)
Diversity dynamics among bivalves during the Triassic and Early Jurassic provides the opportunity to analyse the recovery patterns after two mass extinctions: Permian/Triassic and Triassic/Jurassic (T/J). The results ...

(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica., 2010)
Human activity is leading to mass species extinctions worldwide. Conservation biology (CB) courses,
taught worldwide at universities, typically focus on the proximal causes of extinction without teaching students
how ...
