Impact of past and future climate change on diversity in tropical rainforestsUniversity of Adelaide
Â
Craigâs research centers on the use of molecular approaches to study ecology and evolution and addresses questions including;
(1) the use of molecular markers to infer current and historical population processes at various spatial and temporal scales;
(2) the effects of historical changes in habitat on current distributions and diversity of faunas, with particular reference to rainforest biotas;
(3) improving the use of molecular information in conservation biology and the development of strategies that recognize evolutionary processes.
The geographic focus of this research program spans the tropical forests of Australasia, especially the wet tropics of northeastern Australia and western North America

Is macroevolution simply âmicroevolution over very long periods of t.pdfarishmarketing21
Â
Is macroevolution simply âmicroevolution over very long periods of time?â What processes or
events become very important at the macroevolutionary scale, where the fossil record gives
evidence of different species, genera, families, and higher taxa replacing others?
Solution
It is not macroevolution simply âmicroevolution over very long periods of time but
microevolution is leading to macroevolution and speciation over very long periods of time.
\"Gradualism and the primacy of natural selection followed by Speciation and genome
reorganization due to genetic drift\" are the processes or events that become very important at the
macroevolutionary scale, where the fossil record gives evidence of different species, genera,
families, and higher taxa replacing others. For example, micro-evolutionary changes that
accumulate within two organisms of opposite sex may cause macro-evolutionary changes in the
offspring produced by their mating. The offspring greatly varies genetically from their parents
and is special enough to result in speciation; this is called âmacroevolution.â
In Darwin\'s theory, the microevolutionary changes observed in the phenotypic features of the
âfinchesâ, beaks, tortoises and coral reefs that are observable during a scientistâs lifetime provide
support for Darwinâs view that all life is connected in a branching pattern of phylogenetic tree.
According to Darwin, natural selection including genetic variations is leading to âbranching
patternâ in the origin of species. He concluded in his lifetime microevolutionay observation base
on gradualism of species evolution with âbranching interrelationshipsâ among all living beings
by meticulous âmetaphor of branching patternâ as described below.
Darwinâs theory of gradualism and evolution:
Darwin uses Gradualsim and he proposed that the gradual changes associated with variations of a
species through evolution to get adapted to the present ecosystem with no much transitional
forms. Human evolution based on the gradualism and their adaptations are extremely complex.
Initially in the gradualism, natural selection operates to obtain specific traits according to biome,
ecosystem because of large-scale events followed by formation of rivers, water availability and
habitat formation. Humans did not evolve from primates until just 7 million years ago; while life
appeared on earth 3.5 billion years ago. Humans are well adapted for the environment and
developed their adaptation features as per interspecific and intraspecific genetic variations. If the
evolution time-line compressed to a calendar year, the first organism would appear around
March and Humans would not appear until December 31.
Darwin has developed a meticulous scientific theory about the exact biological evolution of a
species and he explained the evolution of modern species over a long period from a common
ancestor base on morphological convergent & divergent features as explained below.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Â
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Â
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
⢠The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
⢠The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate âany matterâ at âany timeâ under House Rule X.
⢠The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
