Commercialising the Palaeoenvironment
2001This paper attempts to assess the relationship between environmental archaeology and developer funded research in Britain. The typical developer funded cycle is outlined and the ways in which environmental archaeology has been integrated into the various stages is discussed.

Geological Context and Palaeoenvironments
1997Abstract Geological studies contribute to the understanding of the archaeological record by providing information on such topics as the sequence and chronology; the palaeogeographic settings of sites, both regional and local; and site-formation processes (i.e.

Weichselian palaeoenvironments at Kobbelgård, Møn, Denmark
Boreas, 1991Lithostratigraphical and palynological investigations of a coastal cliff section at Kobbelgård, Møn (Denmark) reveal a sedimentary sequence of Weichselian age. Bedded clayey sediments are overlain by stratified silt, sand and occasional beds of clay and gravel.

Late-tertiary and quaternary palaeoenvironments
1988Climatic variations, in both time and space, are the principal source of variability in the environment of plants. Climatic changes therefore provide a context for viewing and interpreting many of the vegetational variations recorded by paleoecological data. Climate variations occur at all temporal and spatial scales.

δ13C as an Indicator of Palaeoenvironments
2001Reconstruction of ancient climates (palaeoclimates) is a major goal in areas of the Earth sciences seeking insight into the history of the Earth. On the one hand a petroleum organic geochemist is able to use such information to provide valuable insight on palaeoclimatic and palaeoenvironmental conditions likely to generate rocks offering good sources ...

Early Cretaceous insect faunas and palaeoenvironment
Cretaceous Research, 1995Abstract The record of Cretaceous insect life has increased dramatically in the last few decades. A new family database suggests that a peak of diversity was reached in the Early Cretaceous, the biggest in the Phanerozoic prior to the Tertiary. The subsequent decline is attributable to the rapid replacement of older floras by angiosperms.

Late Cainozoic palaeoenvironments of southern Africa
2020Pollen bearing deposits of the southwestern Cape have been studied. In the oldest sections of the cores different types of Tertiary vegetation are represented since the Late Oligocene or Early Miocene until their ultimate extinction. The sporomorphae of the younger parts of the deposits are typical of the type of vegetation which exists in these ...
