Making vertebrate fossil radiocarbon dates more useful for global scientific research
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Radiocarbon dating of bones is essential for reconstructing timelines of species' occurrences, domestication, extinction, migrations, and interactions with Quaternary environments. Many studies compile these chronologies at continental to global scales by aggregating radiocarbon dates from various sources, often balancing data quantity and ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Holocene history of Australia's climate is surprisingly poorly understood. This is, in part, because of the relatively weak forcing of Holocene climate versus that of the late Pleistocene. However, it is commonly suggested that eastern Australia dried during the mid‐ to late‐Holocene and that this was in response to increased activity in ...

Stad Slide: Preconditioning and failure of one of the world's largest megaslides
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Submarine landslides can generate tsunamis and pose risks to underwater infrastructure, but a lack of direct observations of such slides hinders our understanding of their development and hazard potential. Studying the morphology of past slides can offer insights into their preconditioning and failure.

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.This work contributes to the literature on the detection of MPs in Greece, proposes a method for MPs extraction in remote environments taking into account fieldwork constraints of an expedition in the Greek Alps, and takes a step forward in MPs analysis by Raman spectroscopy. ABSTRACT Water samples from the alpine lake of Mt.

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.This paper presents a new protocol for the laboratory preparation of archaeological samples. Ceramics that have been hand‐crafted using different sediments as raw materials were collected in a Roman Villa sited in Fiumana (FC), Italy. This method aims at concentrating and analysing heavy minerals in the 15–250 μm grain size fraction, studying the ...

Breaking the Clovis glass ceiling: Native American oral history of the Pleistocene
AIMS GeosciencesThis is a data-based analysis of how Native American interpretations of their distant past are being considered reflecting new science findings. A key science understanding developed over the past 75 years has been that Native people did not occupy North
