Natural and anthropogenic forest fires recorded in the Holocene pollen record from a Jinchuan peat bog, northeastern China [PDF]
Pollen and charcoal particles from a Jinchuan peat (northeastern China) were examined to investigate the fire origin and interaction between climate, vegetation, fire and human activity during the Holocene.

Holocene sediment dynamics in an upland temperate lake catchment : climatic and land-use impacts. [PDF]
Accelerated erosion and transport of fine sediment from upland temperate catchments can reflect increased erosivity and/or erodibility, due in turn to climatic and/or human forcing.

In this issue of PNAS, Jones et al. (1) address an issue that has been with us, in one way or another, for some 200 years. Around the year 1800, French paleontologist Georges Cuvier established the reality of vertebrate extinction by using animals so large that their future discovery on the hoof was highly unlikely (2).

Postglacial relative sea level change at Fildes Peninsula, King George Island (West Antarctic)
Analysis and integration of data obtained in our field and laboratory investigations of 2008–2012 together with results of previous paleogeographic studies were conducted to reveal parameters and factors of the post-glacial changes in the relative sea ...
