Abstract(s)

It was with much interest that we read the comment made by Meco et al. (2022), regarding our work on “Range expansion of tropical shallow-water marine molluscs in the NE Atlantic during the last interglacial (MIS 5e): Causes, consequences and utility of ecostratigraphic indicators for the Macaronesian archipelagos”. We welcome the discussion generated by our paper and appreciate the recognition of its complexity and broad scope. In our opinion, the arguments offered by Meco et al. (2022) do not contradict our conclusions. Nevertheless, we take this opportunity to address their critiques regarding our list of “ecostratigraphic indicators” and parts of our hypothesized range expansions. Meco et al.
