C4 plant food loss probably influenced Paranthropus boisei's extinction: A reply to Patterson et al.'s commentary on Quinn and Lepre (2021)

As reviewed in Trauth et al. (2021), the Onset of Northern Hemispheric Glaciation (ONHG) and glacial intensifications were originally credited as primary drivers of Plio-Pleistocene human evolutionary events (e.g., deMenocal, 1995, 2004; Vrba et al., 1995; Potts and Faith, 2015; Faith et al., 2019), but mounting evidence points to insolation-dominated climatic forcing as the main control on fluctuations in hydroclimate and vegetation structure relevant to biotic evolution in the EARS (e.g.,
