A phase-space model for Pleistocene ice volume [PDF]
Earth and Planetary Science Letters 307, 94-102 (2011), 2011 We present a phase-space model that simulates Pleistocene ice volume changes based on Earth's orbital parameters. Terminations in the model are triggered by a combination of ice volume and orbital forcing and agree well with age estimates for Late Pleistocene terminations.

The deterministic excitation paradigm and the late Pleistocene glacial terminations [PDF]
, 2022 A deterministic excitation (DE) paradigm is formulated, according to which the late Pleistocene glacial terminations correspond to the excitation, by the orbital forcing, of nonlinear relaxation oscillations (ROs) internal to the climate system in the absence of any stochastic parameterization.

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 47, Issue 15, Page 3611-3628, December 2022., 2022 The loess provenance areas of the Ebro and Móra basins are mainly the fluvial terraces of the Middle and Lower Ebro River, respectively, according to the analyses of very heavy minerals and particle size. The wind transport distances are relatively short (<100 km).

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 198-214, January 2023., 2023 The Atlantic coast of NW Spain, where shingle beaches appear today, has suffered an important mobilization of dunes from a sea level about −120 m (bpsl), 20 ky ago. This aeolization caused the collapse of coastal/fluvial ecosystems (as forests) until the Late Holocene.

Evolutionary history and identification of conservation units in the giant otter, Pteronura brasiliensis. [PDF]
, 2011 The giant otter, Pteronura brasiliensis, occupies a range including the major drainage basins of South America, yet the degree of structure that exists within and among populations inhabiting these drainages is unknown.

Scientia Marina, 2011 The genetic structure of populations/species was established during the Quaternary glaciations. Over the last 250 ka (Pleistocene), the South American marine biogeographic history recorded three main glaciations: the most extensive one between 140 and ...

Testate amoebae (Protozoa: Testacea) as bioindicators in the Late Quaternary deposits of the Bykovsky Peninsula, Laptev Sea, Russia [PDF]
, 2004 Testate amoebae (Protozoa: Testacea) were studied in the Late Quaternary permafrost depositsin the Siberian Arctic (Bykovsky Peninsula of the Laptev Sea coast, 71º40'-71º80'N and 129º-129º30'E).

Geoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 35-56, January/February 2023., 2023 Abstract The effects of the Younger Dryas (YD) fluctuation on Late Pleistocene hunter‐gatherers' settlement and subsistence systems in the southern Alps are poorly known. This is primarily due to the scarcity of archaeological sites dating from the YD, in contrast with the extensive evidence available from the lateglacial interstadial and the early ...
