Four centuries of commercial whaling eroded 11,000 years of population stability in bowhead whales

M. V. Westbury, S. C. Brown, A. A. Cabrera, H. E. Morales, J. Ma, A. Rey-Iglesia, A. S. Dyke, C. H. Scharff-Olsen, M. Scott, O. Wiig, L. Bachmann, K. M. Kovacs, C. Lydersen, S. Ferguson, F. Racimo, , E. Lorenzen

This study uses fossil data and modeling to show that commercial whaling caused genetic diversity loss in bowhead whales, threatening their resilience to future climate change.

Reconstructing colonization dynamics to establish how human activities transformed island biodiversity

S. Tomlinson, M. Lomolino, S. Haythorne, A. Anderson, J. Austin, S. C. Brown, G. Perry, J. Wilmshurst, J. Wood, D. A. Fordham

The paper develops a process-explicit method to reconstruct human colonization dynamics on islands, showing it can reveal how human activities transformed biodiversity in New Zealand.
