Following the last deglaciation in the North Atlantic, DNA evidence shows Betulaceae colonization was consistently delayed compared to Salicaceae, which may serve as an analog for modern global warming.
High-throughput systemic approaches on long-term trends identify the environmental factors that cause loss of biodiversity and disrupt ecosystem functions.
