Space-for-time substitution reveals partial transferability of marine biodiversity-temperature relationships
Forecasts of biodiversity responses to climate change often rely on space-for-time substitution, in which spatial biodiversity-climate relationships are used to predict biodiversity change through time. Yet this approach is rarely tested directly because long-term biodiversity time series are scarce. Here, we combine global modern and fossil assemblage data of planktonic foraminifera with…
