The Role Of Disturbance In Shaping The Biogeography
![Page 2: Role of the disturbance in shaping bio geography](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/546fcab7af7959fc348b47c6/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Introduction
What is shaping biogeography ?
Shaping the biogeography is adjustment and distribution of species and ecosystems in geographic space and through geological time
What are the disturbances ?
Any relatively discrete event in time that disrupts or catastrophic events

Types of disturbance
Mainly these disturbances effect on
Species diversity
Land mass
Habitats
Regional and global climates
Natural
Anthropogenic
Autogenic

Disturbances
Plate tectonics
Other natural disturbances
Perturbations

According to the plate tectonics theory, the uppermost mantle, along with the overlying crust, behaves as a strong, rigid layer. This layer is known as the lithosphere.
A theory that states that the earth’s crust is made up of a number of plates which move over a liquid crust that get created and destroyed over time.
What is the plate tectonics
![Page 6: Role of the disturbance in shaping bio geography](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/546fcab7af7959fc348b47c6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
A plate is one of numerous rigid sections of the lithosphere that move as a unit over the material of the asthenosphere.

Tectonics History
![Page 8: Role of the disturbance in shaping bio geography](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/546fcab7af7959fc348b47c6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Tectonic Plates of The Earth
There are 16 tectonics plates and 7 tectonics plates are consider as main tectonics plates
Continental Plates
Main tectonics plates
• African Plate
• Antarctic Plate
• Australian Plate
• North American Plate
• South American Plate
• Eurasian Plate
• Pacific Plate - Oceanic Plate

Effect of Plate Tectonics
Effect on the area of landmasses and marine basins – Plate tectonics helps to create continents , Ocean and Islands
![Page 12: Role of the disturbance in shaping bio geography](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/546fcab7af7959fc348b47c6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Effect on isolation and opportunities for Biotic exchange
• As Pangea began to separate into separate continents before130 Million years , creating physical barriers such as seas, restricting migration to within the continents
![Page 13: Role of the disturbance in shaping bio geography](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/546fcab7af7959fc348b47c6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Gene pools of species are separated and as they are exposed to different physical and biotic conditions, each portion of the species adapts differently and eventually forms new species on the separated continents
Example – Australian continent is the most rich of speciation due to isolation

Effect on regional and global Climates
• Due to Continents separate and latitudinal shifting it cause to different climates on different continents
• Due to continents drifted over or near the pole it causeto cold climate at there
Example – Arctic & Antarctic

Different climates on The Earth
![Page 16: Role of the disturbance in shaping bio geography](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/546fcab7af7959fc348b47c6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Other natural disturbances
Geographical Factors – Mountains , Rivers , Oceans
These geographical factors help for separating a species to two or more groups and to Isolation of each groups

Perturbations
Perturbations such as floods , volcanoes & wildfires are cause to remove or termination of species from a certain places and it cause to find new shelters and spreading to new places
