Can we predict the duration of an interglacial? [PDF]

, 2012
Differences in the duration of interglacials have long been apparent in palaeoclimate records of the Late and Middle Pleistocene. However, a systematic evaluation of such differences has been hampered by the lack of a metric that can be applied ...

Age‐related trends in niche position and specialization in Neotropical vertebrates

Ecography, EarlyView.
Species' niche positions and breadths within a region's environmental space, measured through ecological niche factor analysis (ENFA) as marginality and specialization, can reflect evolutionary constraints related to lineage age. The ‘internal incumbency' hypothesis predicts that older species, due to competitive preemption, occupy more central niche ...

Human behavioural adaptations to interglacial lakeshore environments. An introduction

, 2020
During the course of human evolution, we have suc- cessfully adapted to various environments. Chang- ing climates and landscapes often required new behavioural strategies for survival; human societies indeed came into being against the background of this challenge.

New interglacial deposits from Copenhagen, Denmark:marine Isotope Stage 7 [PDF]

, 2018
During a pre-site survey and construction of a new metro route and station in Copenhagen, fossiliferous organic-rich sediments were encountered. This paper reports on multidisciplinary investigations of these organic sediments, which occurred beneath a ...

Simulating past and future refugia for temperate trees in northern Italy

Ecography, EarlyView.
During the Quaternary, trees responded to the climatic changes of glacial–interglacial cycles with large‐scale range shifts. Over cold glacials, temperate tree species contracted their ranges and survived in areas known as refugia. Several studies point to the Euganean Hills (Colli Euganei), in Veneto, northern Italy, as one of the northernmost ...

LATE MIDDLE PLEISTOCENE COOL NON-MARINE MOLLUSC AND SMALL MAMMAL FAUNAS FROM LIVORNO (ITALY)

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2006
New stratigraphic data (exposed sections and boreholes) allowed a detailed reconstruction of the northern sector of the "Terrazzo di Livorno" (Central Italy). A new unit, called "Corea formation" was discovered and correlated to marine isotope stage (MIS)

Timing, duration, and transitions of the Last Interglacial Asian Monsoon

, 2004
Thorium-230 ages and oxygen isotope ratios of stalagmites from Dongge Cave, China, characterize the Asian Monsoon and low-latitude precipitation over the past 160,000 years.

On the glacial-interglacial variability of the Asian monsoon in speleothem δ18O records

, 2020
While Asian monsoon (AM) changes have been clearly captured in Chinese speleothem oxygen isotope (δ18O) records, the lack of glacial-interglacial variability in the records remains puzzling.

Deglaciation of the Burren glacio‐karst, western Ireland, during Termination 1: Implications for North Atlantic climate and karstification

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...

Revision of the Ungulate Fauna and Upper Pleistocene Stratigraphy of Veternica Cave (Zagreb, Croatia)

Geologia Croatica, 2010
Revision of the Veternica ungulates removes Dama dama (L.)(fallow deer) and Megaceros giganteus (BLUMENBACH) (giantdeer) from the species list and adds Bison priscus (BOJ ANUS) (bison)to it. The rhino remains do not allow a specific determination. A/cesa/
