Abstract The Paleocene‐Eocene thermal maximum (PETM, ∼56 Ma) is marked by a massive and rapid rise in atmospheric CO2 and ∼5°C of global warming. It is globally characterized by a negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE), and, at least locally, is preceded by a pre‐onset excursion (POE).

Surface Pollen Distribution from Alpine Vegetation in Eastern Tibet, China
We explore the relationship between modern pollen spectra and vegetation patterns in the Eastern Tibet, China in order to provide information on the representation of pollen taxa and improve the general knowledge of vertical pollen transport.

Wildfires and Atopic Diseases: A Review
ABSTRACT Wildfire smoke is a major environmental health threat that has increased in frequency and severity in recent years. A hazardous component of wildfire smoke is particulate matter ≤ 2.5 μm (PM2.5). There is evidence to suggest that exposure to wildfire PM2.5 may increase the risk of developing or exacerbating atopic diseases, such as asthma ...

Spatio-temporal Functional Regression on Paleo-ecological Data [PDF]
The influence of climate on biodiversity is an important ecological question. Various theories try to link climate change to allelic richness and therefore to predict the impact of global warming on genetic diversity.

Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.

The Miocene Bükkábrány Fossil Forest in Hungary – field observations and project outline [PDF]
The oldest, standing forest preserved as wood has been found at Bükkábrány, Hungary. An open-pit mine working Upper Miocene (Pannonian) lignite revealed sixteen stumps, 1.8 to 3.6 m diameter at base, preserved up to 6 m height, standing on top of the ...

Common Fossil Pollen of the Erie Basin
This paper is intended chiefly to assist in the identification of common and significant pollen found embalmed in bog deposits in north-central United States. Before proceeding with the actual key and description, a brief explanation seems to be in order. For a number of years European botanists have been counting the various species of pollen found at

ABSTRACT Lipid droplets (LDs) serve as the primary storage site for neutral lipids in plant cells, with growing evidence supporting many additional biological roles, such as in lipid homeostasis, signalling, trafficking, inflammatory responses and inter‐organelle communication.

Biogeophysical Impact of Land‐Use Scenarios on Holocene Surface Temperatures
Abstract Reconstructions and simulations disagree on whether the Holocene exhibited a long‐term cooling or warming signal. Anthropogenic land‐use could be an important forcing regionally, but available population‐based estimates differ widely. We examine transient Holocene climate model simulations forced with three population‐based disturbed‐land ...

A four stage evolution of the White Channel gravel: Implications for stratigraphy and palaeoclimates [PDF]
Although the White Channel gravel (WCG) of the Klondike district, Yukon, contains gold placers which have been exploited for over a century, few sedimentological studies have been undertaken.
