Very interesting. Did Martin Claussen's research factor in the loss of predators and ruminants during the lateish Roman period, from places such a Lybia? Is that too outlandish? Predators shape prey behaviour leading to grazing patterns which minimise overgrazing. Equally, losing that intricate balance destabilise soil carbon (https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2211317119 ) and effective rainfall by extension in brittle environments. Is it possible humans unwittingly collapsed Saharan ecosystems? Would put the Abrahamic religions into a very interesting environmental context. :)
Possible states the earth can evolve to
Congratulation ! I think it is the best scientific article I have read in my life. Thank you very very much !
Fascinating and informative.
Wow. Always something new to learn from you Alpha!
