Tiny fossils reveal how water flow shaped the early marine ecosystem
Thursday, 19 June 2025 () A recent study of 514-million-year-old archaeocyathid reefs in Nevada reveals that early reefs didn't consistently boost biodiversity like modern coral reefs. Researchers found inconsistent patterns of marine life around these ancient reefs, largely dependent on localized conditions. This discovery challenges assumptions about reef ecosystems and offers insights into the evolution of marine systems.
