有個(gè)很酷的新網(wǎng)站和iPhone應(yīng)用程序,名為“時(shí)間樹”(Time Tree),它隨時(shí)隨地都能派上用場(chǎng)。它會(huì)告訴你,隨著時(shí)間的推移,任意兩個(gè)有機(jī)體之間的關(guān)系會(huì)有多密切。換句話說,它會(huì)通過現(xiàn)有數(shù)據(jù)告訴你任意兩個(gè)有機(jī)體是在何時(shí)擁有共同祖先的。時(shí)間樹由賓夕法尼亞州立大學(xué)的布萊爾?赫奇斯和亞利桑那州立大學(xué)的古普塔?庫馬爾共同開發(fā)。 現(xiàn)在我們假設(shè)你外出到一個(gè)樹林里散步,隨身攜帶著iPhone,在林中你碰巧遇到了一只灰熊。你迅速打開這個(gè)程序,輸入兩個(gè)你所感興趣的有機(jī)體。一個(gè)是你——人類,另一個(gè)是灰熊——那個(gè)正在以驚人速度接近你的龐然大物。短短幾秒鐘的時(shí)間,你就可以查詢到你與灰熊在九千八百二十萬年前擁有共同的祖先。 如果你有臺(tái)電腦,并對(duì)灰熊感興趣,那么上時(shí)間樹網(wǎng)站試試吧,網(wǎng)址是。查詢結(jié)果是與你搜索內(nèi)容相關(guān)的已發(fā)表論文中研究結(jié)果的平均值,而且查詢結(jié)果中會(huì)列出這些論文的鏈接地址。
