Dynamic of a lacustrine sedimentary system during late rifting at the Cretaceous–Palaeocene transition: Example of the Yacoraite Formation, Salta Basin, Argentina

The Depositional Record, 2020
The architecture of lacustrine systems is the result of the complex interaction between tectonics, climate and environmental parameters, and constitute the main forcing parameters on the lake dynamics. Field analogue studies have been performed to better

Mercury cycling during the last glacial period in Arctic Lake El'gygytgyn, NE Russia

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tectonic processes play a key role in the global mercury (Hg) cycle on geological timescales, by mobilising Hg from deep Earth reservoirs to the surface. These natural fluxes also introduce a dynamic component to the terrestrial Hg cycle that can interact with other environmental signals and influence Hg delivery to sedimentary records.

Carbon isotope geochemistry of organic matter in volcanic paleosols constrains paleo‐environmental variations

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Fiorano quarry paleosol developed within the Colli Albani volcanic district (Italy) in the time interval bracketed by the deposition of the Pozzolanelle pyroclastic‐flow unit (365 ± 4 ka) and the emplacement of the Capo di Bove lava flow (277 ± 2 ka).

New constraints on the postglacial evolution of Lago Maggiore, Northern Italy

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lago Maggiore is situated in an overdeepened valley reach at the southern margin of the European Alps, and its thick sediment infill allows the reconstruction of the postglacial valley and lake evolution. We study here the sedimentary succession in the lower Ossola Valley, which is infilled by ~500 m of deposits. In a marginal position, a core

Climate‐modulated accumulation and erosion of sediments in the Rodderberg crater basin for the last 439 ka (East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glacial/interglacial climate cycles since marine isotope stage (MIS) 12 influenced the discontinuous and 73 m‐long sediment record from the volcanic crater of Rodderberg in the East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany. High‐resolution grain size and geochemical data have been valued by numerical dating techniques (radiocarbon and luminescence dating,

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.
