Instability of the environment at the end of the Eemian Interglacial as illustrated by isopollen maps of Poland [PDF]

Geological Quarterly, 2016
In numerous terrestrial pollen profiles from Poland(similarly as in a few pollen records from other parts of Central Europe) the end of the last interglacial (Eemian, MIS 5e) seems to be characterized by climatic and environmental instability. It is marked by a strong, rapid cooling in the middle part of pine phase ending this interglacial (E7 regional

Sediment core fossils in ancient Lake Ohrid: testing for faunal change since the Last Interglacial [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2010
Ancient Lake Ohrid is probably of early Pleistocene or Pliocene origin and amongst the few lakes in the world harbouring an outstanding degree of endemic biodiversity.

Reconstruction of Holocene and Last Interglacial vegetation dynamics and wildfire activity in southern Siberia [PDF]

Climate of the Past
Wildfires are a rapidly increasing threat to boreal forests. While our understanding of the drivers behind wildfires and their environmental impact is growing, it is mostly limited to the observational period.

Comparison of environmental inference approaches for ecometric analyses: Using hypsodonty to estimate precipitation

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Ecometrics is the study of community‐level functional trait–environment relationships. We use ecometric analyses to estimate paleoenvironment and to investigate community‐level functional changes through time. We evaluate four methods that have been used

Controls on Terrigenous Detritus Deposition and Oceanography Changes in the Central Okhotsk Sea Over the Past 1550 ka

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Okhotsk Sea, which connects the high latitude Asian continent and the North Pacific, plays an important role in modern and past climate changes due to seasonal sea ice coverage and as a precursor of the North Pacific Intermediate Water. The long-term

Rear‐edge, low‐diversity, and haplotypic uniformity in cold‐adapted Bupleurum euphorbioides interglacial refugia populations

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The high genetic diversity of rear‐edge refugia populations is predicted to have resulted from species repeatedly migrating to low latitudes during glacial periods over the course of Quaternary climate change. However, several recent empirical studies of

Reconstruction of deglacial sea surface temperatures in the tropical Pacific from selective analysis of a fossil coral [PDF]

, 2005
The Sr/Ca of coral skeletons demonstrates potential as an indicator of sea surface temperatures (SSTs). However, the glacial-interglacial SST ranges predicted from Sr/Ca of fossil corals are usually higher than from other marine proxies.

Factors influencing the stable carbon isotopic composition of suspended and sinking organic matter in the coastal Antarctic sea ice environment [PDF]

, 2011
A high resolution time-series analysis of stable carbon isotopic signatures in particulate organic carbon (δ13CPOC) and associated biogeochemical parameters in sea ice and surface waters provides an insight into the factors affecting δ13CPOC in the ...
