From 1997 study of the interplay between life and environments during earths long history and the stratigraphic record represents a massive archive of unique natural experiments on the coupled earth-life system which illuminates the structure and dynamics of the earth-life system, with important implications for our efforts to anticipate the nature and consequences of future, human-induced environmental change.
The octopus has long been mysterious, thanks to its appearance, intelligence, habits, and remarkable defense mechanisms. An ancient denizen of the deep its ancestors lived at least 200 million years ago. (Not only can it shoot a confusing jet of ink to cover its retreat, its skin can change color, almost like a flashing neon sign.) But strange as it may be, the octopus is neither unfamiliar nor uncommon: It thrives in warm and temperate waters throughout the world, feeding on crustaceans.
