An overview of the Middle Pleistocene in the North Mediterranean Region
Alpine and Mediterranean Quaternary, 2021 The Middle Pleistocene was a crucial stage for the evolution of European mammals, a time when the majority of the modern taxa appeared in the continent for the first time. It is also in this interval that periodicity and intensity of glacial-interglacial cycles changed, an event that strongly impacted on Mediterranean marine and terrestrial ecosystems,
