Candidate sites and other reference sections for the Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point of the Anthropocene series

The Anthropocene Review, 2023
We review and compare proposals for 12 reference sections submitted to the Anthropocene Working Group of the International Subcommission on Quaternary Stratigraphy, of which one will be recommended as the Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point ...

Phosphorus Availability Promotes Bacterial DOC-Mineralization, but Not Cumulative CO2-Production

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The current trend of increasing input of terrestrially derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to boreal freshwater systems is causing increased levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) supersaturation and degassing.

Abundance in the Anthropocene [PDF]

The Sociological Review, 2019
Numerous attempts have been made to understand the Anthropocene in relation to overwhelming species and habitat loss. However, amidst these losses ecological niches have emerged and been taken as signs of resilience and hope: from mushrooms that flourish in damaged forests to urban wildlife in brownfield sites.

The varved succession of Crawford Lake, Milton, Ontario, Canada as a candidate Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point for the Anthropocene series

The Anthropocene Review, 2023
An annually laminated succession in Crawford Lake, Ontario, Canada is proposed for the Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) to define the Anthropocene as a series/epoch with a base dated at 1950 CE.

Drought in the Anthropocene [PDF]

Nature Geoscience, 2016
Drought management is inefficient because feedbacks between drought and people are not fully understood. In this human-influenced era, we need to rethink the concept of drought to include the human role in mitigating and enhancing drought.

Technologies of the Anthropocene [PDF]

Cultural Science, 2022
Abstract Rather than a levelling-down of the human to the standing of a biological machine, technologies of the Anthropocene have tended towards sensibilities which level-up a variety of non-humans. In simpler terms, these technologies (such as AI, robotics and the technologies of space exploration) have tended to promote new animistic ...

Exploring Alternative Futures in the Anthropocene

Annual Review Environment and Resources, 2023
Many challenges posed by the current Anthropocene epoch require fundamental transformations to humanity's relationships with the rest of the planet. Achieving such transformations requires that humanity improve its understanding of the current situation ...

The Limits of Anthropocene Narratives [PDF]

, 2020
The rapidly growing transdisciplinary enthusiasm about developing new kinds of Anthropocene stories is based on the shared assumption that the Anthropocene predicament is best made sense of by narrative means. Against this assumption, this article argues

Anthropocene

Cambridge Encyclopedia of Anthropology, 2019
‘The Anthropocene’ is a term that is increasingly used to define a new planetary epoch: one in which humans have become the dominant force shaping Earth’s bio-geophysical composition and processes. Although it originated in the Earth Sciences, it has since been widely adopted across academia and the public sphere as a catch-all description for the ...
