  • Calibrating the End-Permian Mass Extinction 
    Shen, Shu-Zhong; Crowley, James L.; Wang, Yue; Bowring, Samuel A.; Erwin, Douglas H.; Sadler, Peter M.; Cao, Chang-qun; Rothman, Daniel H.; Henderson, Charles M.; Ramezani, Jahandar; Zhang, Hua; Shen, Yanan; Wang, Xiang-Dong; Wang, Wei; Mu, Lin; Li, Wen-Zhong; Tang, Yue-Gang; Liu, Xiao-Lei; Liu, Lu-Jun; Zeng, Yong; Jiang, Yao-Fa; Jin, Yu-Gan (2011)
    The end-Permian mass extinction was the most severe biodiversity crisis in Earth history. To better constrain the timing, and ultimately the causes of this event, we collected a suite of geochronologic, isotopic, and ...
  • The Cambrian Conundrum: Early Divergence and Later Ecological Success in the Early History of Animals 
    Erwin, Douglas H.; Laflamme, Marc; Tweedt, Sarah M.; Sperling, Erik A.; Pisani, Davide; Peterson, Kevin J. (2011)
    Diverse bilaterian clades emerged apparently within a few million years during the early Cambrian, and various environmental, developmental, and ecological causes have been proposed to explain this abrupt appearance. A ...
  • The challenges and scope of theoretical biology 
    Krakauer, David C.; Collins, James P.; Erwin, Douglas H.; Flack, Jessica C.; Fontana, Walter; Laubichler, Manfred D.; Prohaska, Sonja J.; West, Geoffrey B.; Stadler, Peter F. (2011)
    Abstract Scientific theories seek to provide simple explanations for significant empirical regularities based on fundamental physical and mechanistic constraints. Biological theories have rarely reached a level of generality ...
  • Critical Issues of Scale in Paleoecology 
    Bennington, J. Bret; DiMichele, William A.; Badgley, Catherine; Bambach, Richard K.; Barrett, Paul M.; Behrensmeyer, Anna K.; Bobe, Rene; Burnham, Robyn J.; Daeschler, Edward B.; Van Dam, Jan; Eronen, Jussi T.; Erwin, Douglas H.; Finnegan, Seth; Holland, Steven M.; Hunt, Gene; Jablonski, David; Jackson, Stephen T.; Jacobs, Bonnie E.; Kidwell, Susan M.; Koch, Paul L.; Kowalewski, Michal J.; Labandeira, Conrad C.; Looy, Cindy V.; Lyons, Sara K.; Novack-Gottshall, Philip M.; Potts, Richard; Roopnarine, Peter D.; Stroemberg, Caroline A. E.; Sues, Hans-Dieter; Wagner, Peter J.; Wilf, Peter; Wing, Scott L. (2009)
  • David M. Raup (1933 2015) 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2015)
  • Developmental push or environmental pull? The causes of macroevolutionary dynamics 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2017)
    Have the large-scale evolutionary patterns illustrated by the fossil record been driven by fluctuations in environmental opportunity, by biotic factors, or by changes in the types of phenotypic variants available for ...
  • Ecological drivers of the Ediacaran-Cambrian diversification of Metazoa 
    Erwin, Douglas H.; Tweedt, Sarah M. (2011)
  • Eric Davidson (1937 2015) 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2015)
  • Eric Davidson and deep time 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2017)
    Eric Davidson had a deep and abiding interest in the role developmental mechanisms played in generating evolutionary patterns documented in deep time, from the origin of the euechinoids to the processes responsible for the ...
  • The Evolution of Arthropod Body Plans: Integrating Phylogeny, Fossils, and Development-An Introduction to the Symposium 
    Chipman, Ariel D.; Erwin, Douglas H. (2017)
  • Evolutionary uniformitarianism 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2011)
    <br/>I present a new compilation of the distribution of the temporal distribution of new morphologies of marine invertebrates associated with the Ediacaran-Cambrian (578-510 Ma) diversification of Metazoa. Combining this ...
  • Innovation not recovery: dynamic redox promotes metazoan radiations 
    Wood, Rachel; Erwin, Douglas H. (2018)
  • Macroevolution: Dynamics of Diversity 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2011)
    Summary The fossil record typically exhibits very dynamic patterns of innovation, diversification and extinction. In contrast, molecular phylogenies suggest smoother patterns of evolutionary change. Several new studies ...
  • Novelties that change carrying capacity 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2011)
  • Novelty and Innovation in the History of Life 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2015)
    The history of life as documented by the fossil record encompasses evolutionary diversifications at scales ranging from the Ediacaran Cambrian explosion of animal life and the invasion of land by vascular plants, insects ...
  • A Paleontological Look at History 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2011)
  • Possible animal-body fossils in pre-Marinoan limestones from South Australia 
    Maloof, Adam C.; Rose, Catherine V.; Beach, Robert; Samuels, Bradley M.; Calmet, Claire C.; Erwin, Douglas H.; Poirier, Gerald R.; Yao, Nan; Simons, Frederik J. (2010)
  • A public goods approach to major evolutionary innovations 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2015)
    The history of life is marked by a small number of major transitions, whether viewed from a genetic, ecological, or geological perspective. Specialists from various disciplines have focused on the packaging of information ...
  • Snowball Earth climate dynamics and Cryogenian geology-geobiology 
    Hoffman, Paul F.; Abbot, Dorian S.; Ashkenazy, Yosef; Benn, Douglas I.; Brocks, Jochen J.; Cohen, Phoebe A.; Cox, Grant M.; Creveling, Jessica R.; Donnadieu, Yannick; Erwin, Douglas H.; Fairchild, Ian J.; Ferreira, David; Goodman, Jason C.; Halverson, Galen P.; Jansen, Malte F.; Le Hir, Guillaume; Love, Gordon D.; Macdonald, Francis A.; Maloof, Adam C.; Partin, Camille A.; Ramstein, Gilles; Rose, Brian E. J.; Rose, Catherine V.; Sadler, Peter M.; Tziperman, Eli; Voigt, Aiko; Warren, Stephen G. (2017)
    Geological evidence indicates that grounded ice sheets reached sea level at all latitudes during two long-lived Cryogenian (58 and =5 My) glaciations. Combined uranium-lead and rhenium-osmium dating suggests that the older ...
  • Tempos and modes of collectivity in the history of life 
    Erwin, Douglas H. (2021)
    Collective integration and processing of information have increased through the history of life, through both the formation of aggregates in which the entities may have very different properties and which jointly coarse-grained ...
