Last interglacial in western Europe: 20 years of multidisciplinary research on the Eemian (MIS 5e) calcareous tufa sequence at Caours (Somme basin, France) – a review

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 297-346, July 2024.
The Eemian calcareous tufa formation of Caours provides one of the best‐dated records of the last interglacial from fluvial terrace systems in NW Europe, and on the same site, a unique succession of four Palaeolithic layers attributed to Neanderthals, rich in large mammal remains. The tufa, firmly dated to 123.1±2.8 ka on the basis of 25 ages (mainly U‐

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 547-565, May 2024.
ABSTRACT The bay barnacle Amphibalanus improvisus (Darwin, 1854) has been found in Northern Germany in brackish marine sediments of the Holsteinian interglacial. Whereas the cause of the contemporary distribution of this species is anthropogenic and there is evidence that it has resulted mainly from shipping, the fossil findings demonstrate that A ...

Field and laboratory studies on the invasive faucet snail (Bithynia tentaculata) and its trematode parasites

open access: yes
The invasive faucet snail (Bithynia tentaculata) has been implicated in massive waterfowl mortality in the Upper Mississippi River Region (UMRR) for the past two decades.The cause of these die-offs is infection by digenean trematode parasites, for which the faucet snail acts as the first and second intermediate host.
