Document Summary
90% climate part of biogeography, broadly (biomes) corridor. A dispersal mechanism that is a strip of natural habitat that connects separates populations. Important because it helps ecosystems work together and rely on each other. Noah"s ark a geological time dispersal method when you take a land mass with a separate group of animals and put it in a new place, they disperse paleoclimate. Part of the modern distribution of fossils. Can reflect this in paleobiogeography (biomes) filter bridge. Difficult migration and dispersal, some animals are filtered out. Woolly rhinos and pigs ea -/> na. Pronghorns and peccaries na -/> ea escalator there are two types: Hopping, where living organisms can "hop" from one island to the next (hawaiian islands formed by the pacific plate passing over a hotspot) Continuous (iceland) biogeography where and why organisms occur barrier. A dispersal method in which something that blocks the way.
