Palynology and vegetation dynamics across the Permian–Triassic boundary in southern Tibet

open access: yes, 2020
The end-Permian mass extinction (EPME) is regarded as the most severe biotic crisis in Earth history, which is particularly well-documented in the marine fossil record. Despite compelling evidence that dramatic global environmental changes probably drove

Holocene vegetation, climate and fire dynamics in the Serra dos Órgãos, Rio de Janeiro State, southeastern Brazil

open access: yesActa Palaeobotanica, 2020
We analysed pollen and macro-charcoal from a sediment core representing the last 9840 cal yr BP, collected at 2003 m a.s.l. in a patch of upper montane Atlantic Rain Forest (UMARF) embedded in a campos de altitude (high-elevation grassland) matrix in the

A Survey of Atmospheric Pollen and Spores in North-Western Nigeria

open access: yesNotulae Scientia Biologicae, 2018
The incidence of airborne pollen occurring as aeroallergens of varied levels at different periods of the year has generated some public health concern globally. The present study was conducted in order to examine the monthly depositional rate of airborne

China's Beech Forests in the Pre-Quaternary [PDF]

open access: yesFossil Record, 1998
Fagus in China is never dominant in Late Cretaceous and Tertiary floras although it might reach its highest diversity in the Miocene. The genus Fagus was more widely distributed during the Palaeogene than in the Neogene.

Palynology from Ground Zero of the Chicxulub Impact, Southern Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesPalynology, 2020
Palynological analysis of Site M0077A in the Chicxulub impact crater has yielded a record of the immediate Cretaceous/Paleogene (K/Pg) recovery from ground zero of the end-Cretaceous mass extinction, followed by a record of the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal ...

Late Holocene riparian vegetation dynamics, environmental changes, and human impact in the Harapan forest of Sumatra, Indonesia

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Riparian wetland ecosystems provide important ecological services but are also vulnerable to climate change and human activities. To understand the influence of natural factors (e.g.

Preliminary Palynology of the Karoo Equivalent Tanga Beds, Coastal Tanzania: Insights on Preservation, Age and Depositional Environments

open access: yesTanzania Journal of Science, 2019
The major challenge to the current understanding of the stratigraphy of the Tanga Basin is scarcity of biostratigraphy age-control data. A number of palynomorphs retrieved from core samples of the Tanga Beds and analysed for palynology are here presented.

Southern Ocean warming and Wilkes Land ice sheet retreat during the mid-Miocene

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Ocean heat is important in forcing ice sheet retreat, yet past ocean temperature data from proximal ice sheet locations are sparse. Here, the authors present temperature reconstructions from the Wilkes Land subglacial basin during the mid-Miocene, and ...

Forensic palynology and the search for geolocation: Factors for analysis and the Baby Doe case.

open access: yesForensic Science International, 2019
First used over 50 years ago, forensic palynology is an important tool for law enforcement agencies. In most countries that use forensic palynology, microscopic pollen grains and spores are traditionally used in criminal investigations to link suspects ...
