Amazonia through time: Andean uplift, climate change, landscape evolution, and biodiversity

2010 | Hoorn, C; Wesselingh, F P; ter Steege, H; Bermudez, M A; Mora, A; Sevink, J; Sanmartín, I; Sanchez-Meseguer, A; Anderson, C L; Figueiredo, J P; Jaramillo, C; Riff, D; Negri, F R; Hooghiemstra, H; Lundberg, J; Stadler, T; Särkinen, T; Antonelli, A
The article "Amazonia through time: Andean uplift, climate change, landscape evolution, and biodiversity" by Hoorn et al. (2010) provides a comprehensive overview of the geological and ecological changes that have shaped the Amazonia region over time. The authors discuss the impact of Andean uplift, climate change, and landscape evolution on biodiversity, highlighting the complex interactions between these factors. They emphasize the significance of these processes in driving the unique ecological dynamics of the Amazonia, including the distribution and diversity of plant and animal species. The study integrates evidence from paleontological, geological, and molecular data to provide a robust framework for understanding the historical context of Amazonia's biodiversity.The article "Amazonia through time: Andean uplift, climate change, landscape evolution, and biodiversity" by Hoorn et al.
