Climate extremes likely to drive land mammal extinction during next supercontinent assembly
Mammals have dominated Earth for approximately 55 Myr thanks to their adaptations and
resilience to warming and cooling during the Cenozoic. All life will eventually perish in a …

Volcanic CO2 degassing postdates thermogenic carbon emission during the end-Permian mass extinction
Massive carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are widely assumed to be the driver of the end-
