{"title":"The Bilbao conference \"Palaeontology and Evolution: Extinction Events\": A big step forward in understanding exceptional global changes","authors":"O. H. Walliser","doi":"10.7203/sjp.25154","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7203/sjp.25154","url":null,"abstract":"An important precondition to master the problems ofmankind's future is to understand evolution in respect to evolutionary mechanisms, including the manifold interactions between abiotic parameters and the biota, which means the complex interplay between biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and geosphere. The contribution of the palaeontological science to approach this aim is to investigate and to analyze those cases in earth history in which such abiotic iníluences on the biota have to be supposed. That is the case with one certain kind of the so-called global biological events, namely the extinction events. Before discussing the extinction events it should be noticed that there aré two additional, differing patterns ofbio-events: biological innovation events and radiation events. The first one is either independent of abiotic in íluences or at least dominated by pure biological parameters and processes. Radiation events occur subsequent to innovation events (Rp; = post-innovation radiation), but also after extinction events (Rp, = post-extinction ra diation). The Rp, mirrors the relatively short-termed occupation ofthose niches which occured dueto the extinc tion event. Between the latter and the Rp, normally exists a certain time interval in which the s~lectional stress is more or less strongly reduced. This causes a relatively rapid evolution and enables the concerned taxa to enlarge their potency to intrude into the adjacent niches. In this sequence -extinctions, interval, radiations- the causing global event leads not only to extinctions, i.e. to an interruption of the evolution within certain phyletic lines, but it triggers also an acceleration of the evolution, visible in the subsequent radiations. Extinction events are characterized by a relatively high rate of extinction within a relatively short time. \"Re latively\" means in comparison with the long intervals of relatively stable conditions, in which the rate of back gr ound extinctions equals more or less the originating rate. Thus, extinction events are characterized by short termed floral and/or fauna! changes which are globally traceable.","PeriodicalId":37953,"journal":{"name":"Spanish Journal of Paleontology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42541924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Creo que existen motivos muy diversos y esenciales; precisamente, había echado en falta que ello no se hubiera hecho hasta el presente y, lo que es más seguro: que sin nuestra decisión y la de una parte de la comunidad de los paleontólogos españoles que la apoyó incondicionalmente, rara vez hubiera sido tocado este tema desde un punto de vista monográfico en las asambleas anuales de la Sociedad Española de Paleontología. \u0000El primer motivo, para mi, es que los paleontólogos, desde que nuestra ciencia existe como tal, hemos atendido a los aspectos morfológicos de los antiguos organismos -representados actualmente por sus fósiles- en calidad de fuente principal, si no única, de información paleobiológica. \u0000El segundo motivo, y quizá el más importante, sería la Teoría de la Evolución y su vinculación con la Paleonto­logía, cuyo rasgo definitorio básico es, asimismo, su naturaleza de disciplina evolutiva. Tal como Darwin formuló su teoría, el aspecto de mayor relevancia de la misma era el de dar razón del cambio orgánico expresado en térmi­nos de evolución morfológica; su objeto consistía en explicar, mediante el mecanismo de la selección natural, el origen de las adaptaciones complejas que observamos en los organismos. Darwin, sin embargo, era excesivamente lyelliano y, como todos sabemos, pensó que los datos del registro fósil tenían un carácter excesivamente disperso e imperfecto y, más que ayudar a la contratación de las hipótesis básicas de la teoría, ponían a ésta trabas insolubles.","PeriodicalId":37953,"journal":{"name":"Spanish Journal of Paleontology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45935941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The revised low sediment accumulation rates in the lowermost Danian correspond to those calculated by Smit & Hertogen (1980) for the Caravaca section. The estimated longer time-span for the deposition of the KIT boundary layers of 6-11 ka seems to be more realistic. The sediment at the KIT in the Gosau area was deposited under reducing conditions (Reissner el al. 1985). Peak levels of the siderophile elements do not coincide at Gosau and Gams. A diachronism of events is therefore assumed. The gradual decline of CaCO 3 and sorne majar element oxides beginning 4 cm below the K/T boundary and also a 1 mm thin yellow clay !ayer 10 mm underneath the boundary clay at Gams suggest multiple events and could be the result of a period of increased volcanism. el al., 1985).
