Pleistocene Overkill and North American Mammalian Extinctions (2015, methodology): “The simulations (e.g., Alroy 2001a, Brook & Bowman 2004, Bulte et al. 2006, Mosimann & Martin 1975, Zuo et al. 2013) are built around a core set of variables, notably prey population density and growth rates, human population density, and prey harvest rate (Yule et al. 2014).”
Biodiversity and extinction (2007, unknown): “…were the two sets of events, whether humans could have driven these species to extinction, whether they actually did so and, if so, how (eg, Martin, 2001; Roberts et al., 2001; Brook and Bowman, 2002; 2004; Barnosky et al., 2004; Cardillo et al., 2004; Lyons et al., 2004; Miller et al., 2005).”
Late Quaternary Extinctions: State of the Debate (2006, background): “The probability of extinction increases with body mass, without a strong threshold in mass separating extinct and extant mammals (Figure 1, Supplemental Table 2) (see also Brook & Bowman 2004). www.annualreviews.org • Quaternary Extinctions 221 A nn u.”
