Experts Analyze Long-Term Relationships Between Animals and their Response to Changes in the Environments

Experts Analyze Long-Term Relationships Between Animals and their Response to Changes in the Environments

Jenny McGuire plans to use the late Cenozoic fossil record in Africa -; a span of 7.5 million years -; to study the long-term relationships between animals, their traits, and how they respond to changes in their environments. The goal is to use the data to forecast future changes and help inform conservation biology decisions for the continent.
