Geoarchaeological Investigation of Early Neolithic Lagoonal Fringe Landscapes in the Netherlands
Geoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January/February 2026.ABSTRACT Coastal wetlands have historically been portrayed as too marginal for early crop cultivation during the Mesolithic–Neolithic transition due to their dynamic hydrology, low elevation, and poor drainage. However, growing evidence suggests that these environments played a crucial role in the spread of agriculture. We examined buried and submerged

Tubular Compression Fossils from the Ediacaran Nama Group, Namibia [PDF]
, 2010 Abundant tubular macrofossils occur in finely laminated siltstones and shales of the 548-542 Ma Schwarzrand Subgroup. Nama Group, Namibia. The Nama tubes occur in both the Vingerbreek and Feldschuhhorn members commonly in dense populations and always in ...

Long-distance dispersal of plant macrofossils [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Botany, 1980 Abstract Evidence is presented for the long-distance transport of leaves or other plant fragments by streams and/or by flotation on lakes and/or by wind. Under some circumstances macroscopic floras could be transported over considerable distances before being deposited and fossilised.

The Last (Koy-Yukon) Interglaciation in the Northern Yukon: Evidence from Unit 4 at Ch’ijee’s Bluff, Bluefish Basin [PDF]
, 1990 The effects of predicted anthropogenic warming can be assessed in part by documenting responses to past warming events. One of the most pronounced warmings was the last interglaciation - stage 5 of the marine isotope record.

Can the mid-Holocene provide suitable models for rewilding the landscape in Britain? [PDF]
, 2009 Palaeoecologists have been encouraging us to think about the relevance of the Holocene fossil record for nature conservation for many years (e.g. Buckland 1993) but this information seems slow to filter through to the conservation community.
