Mass extinctions and macroevolution (2005, background): “…mass extinctions, providing ample evidence for the macroevolutionary role of incumbency effects and their removal (Sepkoski 1984; Van Valen 1985a; Benton 1987, 1991; Miller and Sepkoski 1988; Patzkowsky 1995; Jablonski and Sepkoski 1996; Erwin 1998, 2001; Jablonski 2001; Foote 1997, 1999, 2003).”
Fitting and comparing models of phyletic evolution: random walks and beyond (2006, unknown): “Unlike more parameter-rich models (e.g., Foote 2003), likelihood surfaces for random walk models are smooth and unimodal, and pose little challenge for numerical optimization.”
The first half of tetrapod evolution, sampling proxies, and fossil record quality (2013, background): “…long understood (Darwin, 1859; Raup, 1972) that they have access to only a very small sample of the fossil record, and that the fossil record falls far short of a correct and unbiased view of all life that ever existed (Foote, 2001, 2003; Smith, 2007a; Benton et al., 2011; Smith and McGowan, 2011).”
Geographical distribution and extinction risk: lessons from Triassic–Jurassic marine benthic organisms (2007, background): “…data sets, the per taxon rates of extinction (E) and origination (O) were measured with the metrics introduced by Foote (2000a) and elaborated by Foote (2003): E ¼ ln½Nbt=ðNbL þ NbtÞ ð4Þ O ¼ ln½Nbt=ðNFt þ NbtÞ ð5Þ where Nbt is the number of taxa crossing both the bottom and top boundaries of an…”
Explaining the Cambrian "Explosion" of Animals (2006, methodology): “Cambrian rates of per genus origination and extinction were on average much higher and more volatile (Bowring et al. 1993, Foote 2003) than the rest of the Phanerozoic.”
On the bidirectional relationship between geographic range and taxonomic duration (2008, background): “…we assess ranges over a relatively brief interval of time and compare them with survival versus extinction in some immediately ensuing event (e.g., Foote 2003; Rode and Lieberman 2004; Payne and Finnegan 2007; and summary in Jablonski 2005: Table 1), or when we compare present-day geographic…”
Pulsed origination and extinction in the marine realm (2005, methodology): “A possible explanation is that both the extinction event and the drop in sampling are linked to a common factor such as marine regression (Newell 1967; Hallam and Wignall 1999; Peters and Foote 2002; Foote 2003a).”
