Adaptive Peak Tracking as Explanation of Sparse Fossil Data Across Fluctuating Ancient Environments

ABSTRACT Species that have persisted over millions of years have done so because they have been able to track peaks in an adaptive landscape well enough to survive and reproduce. Such optima are defined by the mean phenotypic values that maximize population mean fitness, and they are predominantly f...
