A novel distance that reduces information loss in continuous characters with few observations
Lo Valvo, Gerardo A.; Lehmann, Oscar E. R.; Balseiro, Diego (2023)The calculation of pairwise distances is a fundamental step in many statistical analyses in biology and paleontology. The most commonly used distances work with a single observation per object and character, but there are ... -
Carbonate collapse and the late Paleozoic ice age marine biodiversity crisis
Balseiro, Diego; Powell, Matthew G. (2020)The late Paleozoic ice age (LPIA) was characterized by persistently low diversity of marine invertebrates following a second-order mass extinction. Here, we used a data set of North American (paleotropical) fossil ... -
Relative oversampling of carbonate rocks in the North American marine fossil record
Balseiro, Diego; Powell, Matthew G. (Cambridge University Press, 2023)Paleontologists have long stressed the need to know how sampling the fossil record might influence our knowledge of the evolution of life. Here, we combine fossil occurrences of North American marine invertebrates from the ... -
TriloMorph: a dynamic and collaborative database for morphogeometric information of trilobites
Serra, Fernanda; Balseiro, Diego; Monnet, Claude; Randolfe, Enrique; Bignon, Arnaud; Rustán, Juan J.; Bault, Valentin; Muñoz, Diego F.; Vaccari, N. Emilio; Martinetto, Malena; Crônier, Catherine; Waisfeld, Beatriz G. (2023-06-12)Modern morphometric-based approaches provide valuable metrics to quantify and understand macroevolutionary and macroecological patterns and processes. However, very few large scale morphological datasets are currently ...
