Impact of the terrestrial-aquatic transition on disparity and rates of evolution in the carnivoran skull
BACKGROUND: Which factors influence the distribution patterns of morphological diversity among clades? The adaptive radiation model predicts that a clade entering new ecological niche will experience high rates of evolution early in its history, followed by a gradual slowing. Here we measure dispari...
