Evolutionary paleoecology : the ecological context of macroevolutionary change
- W. Allmon, D. J. Bottjer
- Biology
- 31 January 2001
One of the most important questions we can ask about life is "Does ecology matter?" Most biologists and paleontologists are trained to answer "yes," but the exact mechanisms by which ecology matters… Expand

- W. Allmon
- Geology
- 1 February 2001
Abstract Major changes in the marine biota of the western Atlantic region occurred over the last five million years, but the causes of these changes, and especially the relative roles of changes in… Expand

Cretaceous Marine Nutrients, Greenhouse Carbonates, and the Abundance of Turritelline Gastropods
- W. Allmon
- Geology
- The Journal of Geology

- 14 December 2011
The causes of non-acceptance of evolution are groupable into five categories: inadequate understanding of the empirical evidence and the content of modern evolutionary theory, inadequate… Expand
Role of temperature and nutrients in extinction of turritelline gastropods: Cenozoic of the northwestern Atlantic and northeastern Pacific
- W. Allmon
- Geology
- 1 March 1992
Abstract Turritelline gastropods (Mesogastropoda, Turritelline) are common to abundant components in many fossil (Cretaceous, Cenozoic) and Recent marine benthic communities, but the environmental… Expand

- W. Allmon
- Geology
- 1 April 1993
The «Pinecrest Sand,» an abundantly fossiliferous Late Pliocene deposit best exposed near Sarasota, Florida, is a poorly understood stratigraphic unit of considerable paleobiological interest because… Expand
