Nucleation sites and forest recovery under high shrub competition

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 8, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Forests currently face numerous stressors, raising questions about processes of forest recovery as well as the role of humans in stimulating recovery by planting trees that might not otherwise regenerate. Theoretically, planted trees can also provide a seed source for further recruitment once the planted trees become reproductive, acting as ...

No evidence that seaweed cover enhances the deterioration of natural cement‐based mortar in intertidal environments

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 47, Issue 15, Page 3453-3464, December 2022., 2022
We evaluate the biogeomorphological impacts of seaweed on materials commonly used in maritime built heritage restoration. After 6 months of exposure to intertidal conditions, we found no evidence of enhanced deterioration of mortar prepared using natural cement when covered with seaweed compared to uncovered mortar.

Geoarchaeological characterisation of a Younger Dryas site in the Alpine uplands: Cornafessa rock shelter (Italy)

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 35-56, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract The effects of the Younger Dryas (YD) fluctuation on Late Pleistocene hunter‐gatherers' settlement and subsistence systems in the southern Alps are poorly known. This is primarily due to the scarcity of archaeological sites dating from the YD, in contrast with the extensive evidence available from the lateglacial interstadial and the early ...

Comparing different machine‐learning techniques to date Nile Delta sediments based on portable X‐ray fluorescence data

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 57-75, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract Geomorphology generally aims to describe and investigate the processes that lead to the formation of landscapes, while geochronology is needed to detect their timing and duration. Due to restrictions on exporting geological samples from Egypt, modern geoscientific studies in the Nile Delta lack the possibility of dating the investigated ...

Coherent changes in wood charcoals, site occupation and lithic technology across the MIS 4/3 transition at Klein Kliphuis rock shelter, South Africa

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 38-48, January 2023., 2023
Abstract We explore the correspondence between changing palaeoenvironments, patterns of site use, and lithic technology at the rock shelter site Klein Kliphuis (South Africa) across the interval 65–55 000 years before present. This period coincides with the termination of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 4, and the disappearance of an iconic late Pleistocene
