Phylogenetic Turnover: From Populations through Higher Taxa
Do taxa persist as metapopulations in evolutionary time?, by Susan Harrison
Geographic range fragmentation and the evolution of biological diversity, by Brian Maurer and Phillip Nott
Detecting ecological pattern in phylogenies, by John Gittleman, C. Anderson, S. Cates, H-K Luh, H. Hilton, N. Leahy, R-L Wan
Testing models of speciation and extinction with phylogenetic trees of extant taxa, by Jody Hey, Holly Hinton, Nicholas Leahy, Rong-Lin Wang

Diversification of body sizes: patterns and processes in the assembly of terrestrial mammal faunas, by Douglas A. Kelt and James H. Brown
The role of development in evolutionary radiations, by Gunther J. Eble
Declining taxonomic turnover in geologic time, by Norman Gilinsky
Community Turnover: From Populations through Global Diversity

Diversification of North American mammals: a test of equilibrial dynamics, by John Alroy
Scales of diversification and the Ordovician radiation, by Arnold I. Miller and Shuguang Mao
Preston's ergodic conjecture: the accumulation of species in space and time, by Michael L. Rosenweig
An intermediate disturbance hypothesis of maximal speciation, by Warren Allmon, Paul Morris, Michael McKinney
Turnover dynamics across ecological and geological scales, by Gareth Russell
Catastrophic fluctuations in nutrient levels as an agent of mass extinction: upward scaling of ecological processes?, by Ronald E. Martin
Scale-independent interpretations of macroevolutionary dynamics, by Richard B. Aronson and Roy E. Plotnick
How will patterns of human interaction with the earth's eco-system impact on biodiversity loss over the long term--not in the next ten or even fifty years, but on the vast temporal scale be dealt with by earth scientists? This volume brings together data from population biology, community ecology, comparative biology, and paleontology to answer this question.
