There’s been recovery from each of the mass extinctions — otherwise we wouldn’t be here, our ancestors having died — but this study is just gradualist nonsense. The P-T boundary is narrow like the K-T boundary, has iridium (which is not as strong as at the K-T boundary, but much stronger than volcanism can produce), and whole taxa just stopped at the boundary, no “five or six milllion year” period BS as in the article.
I know Im a stickler......There cant be a recovery from an extinction....at all.
Extinct means no longer in existence. (I know you knew that.)
The credibly of the story was shot with the title. How can we even hope to believe the scientific world and all its way out claims of “climate change”, ozone depletion, dark matter and such, if they don’t use exact scientific terms that mean the same thing today as they did tomorrow? (heh-snort).
...and the journalistic standards of today...!!!.....These yahoos wouldn’t have made it one semester in my freshman HS journalism class.
I think they must be in ka-hoots.
