Holocene vegetation dynamics of Grande Terre (Kerguelen Islands) inferred from sedimentary ancient DNA

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While the Antarctic region has experienced significant climatic changes over the Holocene, few high‐resolution records have examined their effects on the local biota. In order to understand past ecological shifts and forecast future changes, it is important to obtain high‐resolution palaeoecological records from this region.

Out of Africa: An alternative scenario for the first human dispersal in Eurasia

open access: yesMètode Science Studies Journal: Annual Review, 2018
Recent paleoanthropological evidence from the early Pleistocene site of Dmanisi in Georgia has revealed that the first hominins out of Africa were more archaic than the coeval African and Asian Homo erectus.

Technical note: The Linked Paleo Data framework – a common tongue for paleoclimatology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Paleoclimatology is a highly collaborative scientific endeavor, increasingly reliant on online databases for data sharing. Yet there is currently no universal way to describe, store and share paleoclimate data: in other words, no standard. Data standards

New geochronological constraints on Late Pleistocene glaciation in the southern Cadí Massif, SE Pyrenees

open access: yesJournal 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.

South Atlantic Multi‐Site Calibration of Coral Oxygen Isotope Paleothermometer

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Coral‐based stable oxygen isotopes (δ18O) have been used as a proxy for sea surface temperature (SST) since the 1970s, and δ18O–SST calibration studies have been fundamental to assure robust and faithful SST reconstructions.

Replication and reinsertion of stalagmites sampled for paleoclimatic purposes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2018
Sampling stalagmites for paleoclimatic study can enter into conflict with preserving the beauty and integrity of caves. To minimize this impact, a variety of sampling strategies have been used by researches aware of cave-conservation issues. Based on our

A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
