Physical constraints during Snowball Earth drive the evolution of multicellularity

William W. Crockett, Jack O. Shaw, Carl Simpson, Christopher P. Kempes

The paper models how environmental changes during Snowball Earth glaciations created selective pressures that favored multicellularity in eukaryotes but not prokaryotes.

A framework for reconstructing ancient food webs using functional trait data

Jack O. Shaw, Alexander M. Dunhill, Andrew P. Beckerman…·Pincelli M. Hull

This paper introduces PFIM, a model that reconstructs ancient food webs using functional trait data, showing it can predict ~70% of trophic interactions in modern systems and ~90% when enforcing interaction distributions.
