Zbornik Radova: Geografski institut "Jovan Cvijić", 2016 The vast majority of Tripolitania sites are open surface sites, but after the introduction of paleoclimatology in archaeological research during 1980’s, even with the insufficient amount of research, we were given a new vision of the archaeology of the ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Megafauna became extinct during the late Quaternary, with climate changes and human activities the two main proposed extinction drivers. Palaeoloxodon naumanni (Naumann's elephant) and Mammuthus primigenius roamed the Japanese archipelago during the Pleistocene.

Vegetation cycles in a disturbed sequence around the Cobb-Mountain subchron in Catalonia [PDF]
, 2008 A 52 m-long lacustrine sequence has been recovered from the basin of Bòbila-Ordis, near Banyoles (N-E Spain). The presence of Early Biharian rodent teeth (Early Pleistocene) and of a c.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper presents evidence of glacier surging in the British landform record. We use new high‐resolution multibeam‐echosounder bathymetry data to map the submarine geomorphology of a former tidewater glacier that drained the Skye Icefield, NW Scotland, during the Younger Dryas Stadial (Greenland Stadial 1) ca. 12.9–11.7 ka.

Intérêts et limites de l'approche moléculaire pour aborder la biogéographie et la spéciation : l'exemple de quelques Mammifères d'Afrique tropicale [PDF]
Bulletin de la soci\'et\'e zoologique de France 127 (2002) 359-370, 2007 We attempted to test biogeographic hypotheses proposed for the evolution of tropical faunas using mitochondrial DNA sequences of selected African mammalian taxa (Insectivora, Rodentia and Primates). 1/ we constructed a molecular phylogeny of taxa in order to ascertain their monophyly and calibrate a molecular clock; 2/ we analysed and compared the ...

A Middle and Late Devensian sequence from the northern part of Kents Cavern (Devon, UK)
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.Abstract 1920s/30s excavation of a Middle Devensian sequence in the northern part of Kents Cavern recovered important Late Middle and Early Upper Palaeolithic archaeological material, including Britain's oldest known Homo sapiens remains. Questions remain about this material, including how it came to be in the cave.

Estimating global determinants of leopard home range size in a changing world
Animal Conservation, Volume 25, Issue 6, Page 748-758, December 2022., 2022 The leopard (Panthera pardus) is an iconic, generalist and broadly distributed felid undergoing severe population declines. We conducted macroecological research to identify the determinants of leopard home range size across their global distribution.

Late Pleistocene–Holocene environmental fluctuations of southern Chihuahua Desert, Mexico
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Paleoenvironmental reconstructions from the Mexican Chihuahua Desert based on biological proxies are scarce, creating a gap in our understanding of the ecological responses to climate change in this water‐scarce region. Here, we present a paleoenvironmental reconstruction based on geochemical data and biological proxies such as ostracods and ...
