Late Quaternary lake filling and drying in northern Australia's largest freshwater lake

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lake Woods, Jurrkulu, is northern Australia's largest freshwater lake filled today in strong Indo–Australian summer monsoons (IASM) to maximum depths of ~5 m. On the western margins of the lake, two large arcuate ridges occur 20 to 40 m above the lake floor and inset within these are other mid‐elevation lake deposits, such as depositional ...

Stratigraphic and structural styles of half-graben offshore basins in Southern Italy: multichannel seismic and Multibeam morpho-bathymetric evidences on the Salerno Valley (Southern Campania continental margin, Italy) [PDF]

, 2009
New results on the seismic stratigraphy and morpho-bathymetry of the Pleistocene sedimentary basin of the Salerno Valley focused on the regional seismic stratigraphy of the Southern Campania passive continental margin (Southern Tyrrhenian sea, Italy ...

Climate‐modulated accumulation and erosion of sediments in the Rodderberg crater basin for the last 439 ka (East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glacial/interglacial climate cycles since marine isotope stage (MIS) 12 influenced the discontinuous and 73 m‐long sediment record from the volcanic crater of Rodderberg in the East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany. High‐resolution grain size and geochemical data have been valued by numerical dating techniques (radiocarbon and luminescence dating,

Eccentricity Paces Late Pleistocene Glaciations

Geophysical Research Letters
Late Pleistocene glacial terminations are caused by rising atmospheric CO2 occurring in response to atmospheric and ocean circulation changes induced by increased discharge from Northern Hemisphere ice sheets.

Revisiting the phylogenetic relationships within Sladenia (Sladeniaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Geological and climatic changes associated with the Ailao Shan–Red River shear zone (ARSZ) are thought to have influenced the evolutionary history of many mostly drought‐adapted low‐elevation plant lineages in southwestern China, yet their role in shaping genetic divergence in montane cloud‐forest plants remains poorly understood.

Let's Talk About Bone Cylinders. Taphonomy of Carnivores and Humans

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTBone cylinders are a distinctive structure predominantly produced by durophagous carnivoran species during the consumption of long bones, in which the diaphyseal canal remains intact while both epiphyses are removed or consumed. This study evaluates the significance of this morphology, traditionally attributed to extant and extinct hyena ...

Non-biface assemblages in Middle Pleistocene Western Europe. A comparative study

, 2011
This thesis presents the results of an investigation into the Clactonian assemblages of Middle Pleistocene souther Britain. By exploring other non-biface assemblages (NBAs) reported from elsewhere in Europe it seeks to illuminate our understanding of the

Body Size, Dental Pathology, and Maternal Genetic Diversity of Ancient Horses in the Eastern Baltic Sea Region and Western Russia

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The early evolutionary history of modern domestic horses (Equus caballus/Equus ferus caballus), known as the DOM2 lineage, is well documented due to numerous archaeological and ancient DNA (aDNA) studies. Although many uncertainties remain in the domestication timeline, current evidence suggests that the domestication of modern horses began in
