Obliquity pacing of the late Pleistocene glacial terminations [PDF]
The 100,000-year timescale in the glacial/interglacial cycles of the late Pleistocene epoch (the past approximately 700,000 years) is commonly attributed to control by variations in the Earth's orbit. This hypothesis has inspired models that depend on the Earth's obliquity (approximately 40,000 yr; approximately 40 kyr), orbital eccentricity ...

Spring onset and seasonality patterns during the Late Glacial period in the eastern Baltic region [PDF]
Spring onset is an important phenological observation that is sensitive to modern climate change and can be traced back in geological time. The Late Glacial (∼ 14 500–11 700 cal yr BP) spring onset and growing season (growing degree days) dynamics in ...

The archaeological and genetic foundations of the European population during the Late Glacial: implications for ‘agricultural thinking’ [PDF]
This article presents the initial results from the S2AGES database of calibrated radiocarbon estimates from western Europe in the period 25,000–10,000 years ago.

Mitochondrial DNA signals of late glacial recolonization of Europe from near Eastern refugia [PDF]
Human populations, along with those of many other species, are thought to have contracted into a number of refuge areas at the height of the last Ice Age.

Tree migration-rates : narrowing the gap between inferred post-glacial rates and projected rates [PDF]
Faster-than-expected post-glacial migration rates of trees have puzzled ecologists for a long time. In Europe, post-glacial migration is assumed to have started from the three southern European peninsulas (southern refugia), where large areas remained ...

Late Palaeolithic to Early Mesolithic transition in the Carpathian Basin
Szekszárd-Palánk is one of the handful in situ excavated sites from the Late Glacial period of East-Central Europe which is also supported by radiometric dating. However, the considerable time that has passed since its discovery necessitates a revision,

Mitogenomes from Two Uncommon Haplogroups Mark Late Glacial/Postglacial Expansions from the Near East and Neolithic Dispersals within Europe [PDF]
The current human mitochondrial (mtDNA) phylogeny does not equally represent all human populations but is biased in favour of representatives originally from north and central Europe.

Were the Larsemann Hills ice-free through the last Glacial Maximum? [PDF]
Lake sediments in the Larsemann Hills contain a great diversity of biological and physical markers from which past environments can be inferred. In order to determine the timing of environmental changes it is essential to have accurate dating of ...

Late Glacial–Holocene climatic transition record at the Argentinian Andean piedmont between 33 and 34° S [PDF]
The Arroyo La Estacada (~ 33°28' S, 69°02' W), eastern Andean piedmont of Argentina, cuts through an extensive piedmont aggradational unit composed of a dominant Late Pleistocene–early Holocene (LP–EH) alluvial sequence that includes several paleosols ...
