Holocene vegetation change and fire–plant diversity shifts in Mediterranean France

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Dental enamel hypoplasia and intra‐tooth isotope records as indicators of physiological stress and environmental variability in Early Pleistocene hippopotamids from Melka Kunture (Upper Awash, Ethiopia)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enamel hypoplasia results from temporary disruptions of enamel deposition during tooth development. It is widely used as an indicator of physiological stress in archeological and paleontological contexts; yet, its relationship with environmental conditions during tooth formation remains poorly constrained.

Introducing a ramped pyrolysis/oxidation‐14CO2 analysis system operated with mobile molecular sieve traps

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract A novel instrument for the thermal degradation of sedimentary organic matter was set up at the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) in Bremerhaven, Germany, with the aim of enabling Ramped Pyrolysis/Oxidation‐14C analysis as direct CO2 gas measurement.

Ecological variability of Hippopotamus antiquus from the late Early–Middle Pleistocene of Megalopolis Basin (Greece): Evidence for dynamic habitats in a glacial microrefugium

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
This study investigates the ecology of the extinct European Hippopotamus from the late Early–Middle Pleistocene (c. 900–400 ka) sequence of the Megalopolis Basin, a glacial microrefugium for temperate taxa in southern Greece. Using stable carbon (δ13C) and oxygen (δ18O) isotope analyses and microwear analyses of Hippopotamus dental elements, we ...

Comment on the Paleoenvironment of Ardipithecus

open access: yes, 2010
White and colleagues (Research Articles, 2 October 2009, pp. 65–67 and www.sciencemag.org/ardipithecus) characterized the paleoenvironment of Ardipithecus ramidus at Aramis, Ethiopia, which they described as containing habitats ranging from woodland to ...

Az eocén-végi őskörnyezet rekonstruálása az Erdélyi-medence bentosz foraminifera-közösségei alapján: Late Eocene paleoenvironment reconstruction based on benthic foraminifera assemblages from Transylvanian Basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The Eocene/Oligocene cooling event had impacted the global ocean and consequently the marine biota, although we assume that its effect was dependent on regional paleoceanography. Therefore, we investigated benthic foraminiferal assemblages recovered from

Revisiting the Paleo Elbe Valley: Reconstruction of the Holocene, Sedimentary Development on Basis of High-Resolution Grain Size Data and Shallow Seismics

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
The Paleo Elbe Valley is the most prominent subsurface structure in the southern North Sea. During the Weichselian (marine isotope stage (MIS) 2), the valley traversed the exposed sea floor and drained the southern margin of the Scandinavian ice sheet ...

Processes and Patterns of Dolomite Precipitation in Aptian Pre‐Salt Deposits of Santos Basin, Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Aptian pre‐salt lacustrine carbonates represent the most significant oil exploration target along the South Atlantic margin. Dolomitization of the Santos Basin Barra Velha Formation (BVF) is critical for reservoir quality, yet its origin, patterns, and evolution remain poorly understood.
