The stable isotope setting of Australopithecus sediba at Malapa, South Africa

South African Journal of Science, 2016
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 ...

Marjamurto, an interstadial site in a till covered esker area of central Ostrobothnia, western Finland [PDF]

Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1989
Till-covered glaciofluvial deposits, presumably eskers, are common in Central Ostrobothnia (Pohjanmaa) within a zone more than 50 km broad, in which no exposed eskers are present.

Modern Pollen Assemblages From Lake Sediments and Soil in East Siberia and Relative Pollen Productivity Estimates for Major Taxa

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Modern pollen–vegetation–climate relationships underpin palaeovegetation and palaeoclimate reconstructions from fossil pollen records. East Siberia is an ideal area for investigating the relationships between modern pollen assemblages and near natural ...

Late Holocene palynology and palaeovegetation of tephra-bearing mires at Papamoa and Waihi Beach, western Bay of Plenty, North Island, New Zealand. [PDF]

, 1995
The vegetation history of two mires associated with Holocene dunes near the western Bay of Plenty coast, North Island, New Zealand, is deduced from pollen analysis of two cores.

Miocene palynoflora from the KRAM-P 218 leaf assemblage from the Bełchatów Lignite Mine (Central Poland)

Acta Palaeobotanica, 2016
During a palynological analysis of four samples from the Bełchatów KRAM-P 218 collection of plant macroremains 95 fossil species of sporomorphs were identified. Among the non-pollen palynomorphs was the fossil species Desmidiaceaesporites cosmarioformis,

Fossil pollen records reveal a late rise of open-habitat ecosystems in Patagonia [PDF]

, 2012
The timing of major turnovers in terrestrial ecosystems of the Cenozoic Era has been largely interpreted from the analysis of the assumed feeding preference of extinct mammals. For example, the expansion of open-habitat ecosystems (grasslands or savannas)
