Investigating relationships among strontium, barium, and seasonality in wild baboons

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Geochemical profiles of Australopithecus africanus and baboon teeth show fluctuating trace elements, possibly reflecting seasonal diets. Here we use laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric measurements of calcium‐normalized strontium and barium ratios (Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca) and ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotopes (δ18O ...

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

New insights into one of the oldest glacial deposits in the northern Alpine foreland (Höchsten, SW Germany)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Diamictic deposits within a presumed Early Pleistocene overdeepened basin are investigated with a combined sedimentological‐geotechnical approach including analysis via μCT scans. Sedimentary facies, geotechnical properties, and microstructures reflect a transition from glacier‐proximal deposition towards direct ice contact and subglacial deformation ...
