Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Cadí Massif (42°17′09″ N, 1°38′11″ E; 2649 m a.s.l.) in the southeastern Pyrenees preserves clear evidence of Late Pleistocene glaciation, although previous research has focused almost exclusively on its northern slope. By contrast, the southern slope has remained largely unexplored.

, 2023 This thesis concerns the history of paleoclimatology in the postwar period. It follows the trajectory of two climate proxy records – ice cores and deep-sea cores – in the North Atlantic region, from their emergence as scientific objects in the 1940s to ...

A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...

Evolution in a changing environment [PDF]
We propose a simple model, based on Monte Carlo simulations, for studying the effects of changes in the environment on the adaptation and extinction of evolving species.

R code for submitted paper Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology. This code calculates ice volumes, associated GIA, and Rayleigh Distillation over the past 40 million years. It then compares implied deep-sea temperatures with those from clumped isotopes,

Holocene vegetation change and fire–plant diversity shifts in Mediterranean France
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Changes in fire activity are recognized as a major threat to biodiversity and vegetation communities across the Mediterranean Basin. However, long‐term fire–vegetation interactions remain poorly investigated. Here, we combine a high‐resolution charcoal record with pollen data from the “Étang des Aulnes” lake (southern France) to reconstruct ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Upland farming in Europe is frequently assumed to have been limited and precarious, despite relict spade‐dug ridges providing firm evidence of past crop growing. Direct evidence for crop types in post‑Medieval to Modern (~since 1500 CE) uplands is rare; yet, in Ireland, relict spade‐dug ridges that date to this period are commonly interpreted ...

, 2002 Stalagmites from four caves of northern Venezuela were collected for paleoclimatology studies. Preliminary age determinations and carbon and oxygen isotope data from a stalagmite, show a major stable isotope shift from approximately 11,500 to 10,000 ...

Managing and visualising geochemical data for tephra correlation with the IntChron Integration Tool
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT There is now a wealth of glass‐shard geochemical data for volcanic ash (tephra) layers from a wide range of volcanoes and eruptions, providing invaluable datasets for tephrochronology. However, compilation of published data to assess tephra correlations leads to large files and requires careful management.
