  abstract = {{T}oday, anthropogenic impacts are causing a serious crisis for global biodiversity, with rates of extinction increasing at an unprecedented rate. {E}xtinctions typically occur after a certain delay, and understanding the mechanisms causing delays is a key challenge for both fundamental and applied perspectives. {H}ere, we make use of natural experiments, the isolation of lakes by land uplift in {N}orthern {S}candinavia, to examine how yearly extinction rates are affected by time since isolation and a range of abiotic and biotic factors. {I}n this aim, we adapted a model of delayed species loss within isolated communities to test the effects of time since isolation, area, p{H}, depth and the presence/absence of piscivores on extinction rates. {A}s expected, we found that small and/or young lakes experience a higher annual rate of extinctions per species than larger and/or older ones. {C}ompared to previous studies that were conducted for either young (few thousand years ago) or very old (>10,000 years ago) isolates, we demonstrated over a large and continuous temporal scales (50-5,000 years), similar relationship between extinction rates and age. {W}e also show that extinction rates are modified by local environmental factors such as a strong negative effect of increasing p{H}. {O}ur results urge for the need to consider the time since critical environmental changes occurred when studying extinction rates. {I}n a wider perspective, our study demonstrates the need to consider extinction debts when modelling future effects of climate change, land-use changes or biological invasions on biodiversity.},
