evolution by natural selection, it cannot by itself explain microevolutionary change over multiple generations or macroevolutionary change over geological time. This is due to effects which damp values over longer intervals, as elucidated by morphological rate comparisons which found that there is a negative correlation between rates and measurement interval. Therefore, appropriate temporal scaling is necessary for comparing rates of evolution over different time intervals.
