  • Biotectonics

    Tectonics as the Driver of Bioregionalisation

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Tectonic plates are constantly moving, either crashing into one another creating a mosaic of mountains and shallow seas, or tearing apart and isolating large swathes of land. In both cases plate tectonics separates populations leading to the evolution of biota. Tectonics is also responsible for the destruction life, for instance when large coral reefs or shallow seas are compressed to form ... Read more
