BioDeepTime

Assemblage time series across scales

BioDeepTime

Humans have profoundly modified ecosystems and planetary processes across the globe. Yet it remains difficult to quantify humanity's impact because doing so requires disentangling human and natural drivers of change. The BioDeepTime Project aims to unravel the drivers of biodiversity dynamics by leveraging the combined power of ecological and fossil timeseries and by advancing broadly integrative theories of biodiversity change and scaling in time.
