“Pre–mass extinction decline of latest Permian ammonoids” by Prof. Wolfgang Kiessling was published in the journal “Geology”
The work originated from the TERSANE research group based at FAU (FOR 2332). In this interdisciplinary project, eight working groups are investigating the conditions under which natural greenhouse gas emissions can reach catastrophic levels and how these are linked to biodiversity crises. continue

Species extinction as an opportunity: Public lecture by Prof. Wolfgang Kießling
Species extinction is a natural process of evolution. Today’s biodiversity on Earth is the result of the long-term dynamics of speciation and species extinction. These dynamics are complex in detail, but the broad patterns are surprisingly simple and regular on geological timescales. The lecture will highlight what we can deduce from these patterns for the […]
