ABSTRACT Uncertainty remains over local‐scale responses of ecotonal Amazonian forests to middle Holocene drying due to the scarcity, and coarse spatial resolution, of lacustrine pollen records. This paper examines the palaeoecological potential of soil phytoliths, stable carbon isotopes and charcoal for capturing local‐scale ecotonal responses of ...

Late Neogene leaf assemblage from Bełchatów Lignite Mine (central Poland)
Leaf macroremains collected in the Bełchatów Lignite Mine (central Poland) were investigated. The fossil assemblage consists of leaves of Acer, Betula, Carpinus, Dicotylophyllum, Fagus, ?Magnolia, “Parrotia”, Pinus, Quercus, and Zelkova.

Paleovegetation and paleoclimate in the Baise Basin during Oligocene
To reconstruct the palaeovegetation and palaeoclimate in the Baise Basin during the Oligocene, in this work, we analyzed sporopollen fossils from the Fuping Formation in this region.

Abstract The Triassic–Jurassic transition interval is marked by enhanced biotic turnover rates in both marine and terrestrial realms. However, limited data from Asia hampers the understanding of global ecosystem response to the end-Triassic mass extinction event. Here, we present significant vegetation and climate changes across the Triassic–Jurassic

The stable isotope setting of Australopithecus sediba at Malapa, South Africa
We report δ13C and δ18O results from carbonate-cemented cave sediments at Malapa in South Africa. The sediments were deposited during a short-period magnetic reversal at 1.977±0.003 Ma, immediately preceding deposition of Facies D sediments that contain ...
