Oxygen's Faint Whisper: Life's Early Grip on Breathable Depths

New study shows early complex life stayed on the seabed in oxygen-rich spots for millions of years before spreading.

Early complex life was limited to oxygen-rich seabed areas for hundreds of millions of years. This is much longer than scientists previously thought.

Ancient Amphibian Fossils Resurface, Illuminating Early Life's Global Reach

Newly found ancient amphibian fossils from Australia, dating back to the start of the Age of Dinosaurs, reveal how early land animals spread across the world.

Two ancient amphibian fossils, Erythrobatrachus and Arenaerpeton, have been rediscovered and identified. These finds show early land animals were spreading globally and adapting to sea life.

#introduction!
I'm a #sociologist, #demographer and #historian working on long-term change in #population #health. I'm interested in #healthinequalities, differences between #families and #intergenerational change, and #earlylife effects on health outcomes. I study #mortality, #morbidity, #reproductivehealth and #stature. I use historical register data as well as Swedish #registerdata. More on www.ingridvandijk.com!
