Special paleogeographic characteristics and changes in δ18O values in Upper Pleistocene deposits of the Moravian Plateau

open access: yesHungarian Geographical Bulletin, 2011
Our own new environment-discrimination proxies, which include beyond the traditional sedimentary parameters our newly introduced indices (fineness grade: Fg and degree of weathering: Kd), δ18O values and stratigraphic data were used in our study to ...

Tree-ring cellulose δ18O records similar large-scale climate influences as precipitation δ18O in the Northwest Territories of Canada

open access: yes, 2021
Stable oxygen isotopes measured in tree rings are useful for reconstructing climate variability and explaining changes in physiological processes occurring in forests, complementing other tree-ring parameters such as ring width.

Hunting Strategies and Game Exploitation Organization in the Magdalenian: An Integrated Approach Based on Mortality Profiles and Stable Isotopes at Chaves Cave (Huesca, Spain)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding hunting strategies in Upper Paleolithic contexts remains challenging due to the complex relationships between prey behavior, environmental conditions, and human decision‐making. Addressing these dynamics requires integrating archeozoological, geospatial, and geochemical proxies capable of capturing demographic patterns, landscape

Local hydroclimate alters interpretation of speleothem δ18O records [PDF]

open access: yes
Oxygen isotopes (δ18O) are the most commonly utilized speleothem proxy and have provided many foundational records of paleoclimate. Thus, understanding processes affecting speleothem δ18O is crucial.

A Possible Case of Temporomandibular Joint Dislocation, Trepanation, and Metabolic Bone Disease in a Young Adolescent From North‐Central Myanmar (1000–700 bce)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This osteobiography explores the life history of an adolescent who lived during the early‐mid Bronze Age (c. 1000–700 bce) and was buried at Nyaung'gan, a site in north‐central Myanmar. Burial 3b had multiple skeletal lesions, and their bones were covered in well‐remodeled subperiosteal new bone.

125 years of exploration and research at Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK) 125 ans d'exploration et de recherches à Gough's Cave (Somerset, Royaume‐Uni)

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Our understanding of the recolonization of northwest Europe in the period leading up to the Lateglacial Interstadial relies heavily on discoveries from Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK). Gough's Cave is the richest Late Upper Palaeolithic site in the British Isles, yielding an exceptional array of human remains, stone and organic artefacts, and butchered ...

Assessing fish movement and physiological traits along a salinity gradient by measuring stable oxygen isotope values in fish blood water and muscle water

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Variations in stable oxygen isotopes (δ18O) in the body water of animals reflect changes in δ18O values in environmental water and the animals' physiological processes.

Gough's Cave and biomolecular archaeology: a story of evolving interpretation Archéologie biomoléculaire à la grotte de Gough's Cave : une interprétation en constante évolution

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Gough's Cave is a key archaeological site that has been at heart of British archaeology for the past century. Professor Chris Stringer, whom this special issue honours, has been a key figure in excavations and research projects at the site for many decades.
