The effects of mountain belts in supporting the conditions for the development of complex life forms in adjacent basins are warmly debated today. In this paper, MOBILE Project researchers show that, while mountains might provide oxygen and nutrients, if a sea basin becomes surrounded by mountains and completely restricted, this effect might become damaging toContinuar lendo “Goldilocks at the dawn of complex life: mountains might have damaged Ediacaran–Cambrian ecosystems and prompted an early Cambrian greenhouse world”
