Abstract

The fossils may be evidence that the roots of today's marine ecosystems took hold shortly after the Great Dying, Dai says. PALEONTOLOGY Following the most severe known mass extinction in Earth's history, vibrant marine ecosystems may have recovered within just a million years, researchers report in the Feb. 10 Science. Later, other fossil finds, such as the Paris biota in the western United States and the Chaohu biota in China, led scientists to suggest that marine ecosystems re-established themselves within just 3 million years.
