Joint inversion of proxy system models to reconstruct paleoenvironmental time series from heterogeneous data [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2020 Paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental reconstructions are fundamentally uncertain because no proxy is a direct record of a single environmental variable of interest; all proxies are indirect and sensitive to multiple forcing factors.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 Multi-proxy investigations on geological archives provide valuable information about environmental variations in the past. As opposed to single-proxy studies, the combination of several proxies can reveal more detailed information and strengthen ...

Comparing proxy and model estimates of hydroclimate variability and change over the Common Era [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2017 Water availability is fundamental to societies and ecosystems, but our understanding of variations in hydroclimate (including extreme events, flooding, and decadal periods of drought) is limited because of a paucity of modern instrumental observations ...

Proxy responses to ICECAP-A: Exploring variation across multiple proxy assessments of capability well-being for the same individuals. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 BackgroundThe ICECAP capability measures are increasingly being used to capture the impact of health and social care interventions on well-being. In cases where the recipient of an intervention is highly vulnerable, proxy completion may be necessary ...

QUINE’S PROXY-FUNCTION ARGUMENT FOR THE INDETERMINACY OF REFERENCE AND FREGE’S CAESAR PROBLEM
Manuscrito, 2021 In his logical foundation of arithmetic, Frege faced the problem that the semantic interpretation of his system does not determine the reference of the abstract terms completely.

Sociodemographic disparities and clinical predictors of cochlear implant quality of life: evidence from Saudi Arabia [PDF]
Scientific ReportsQuality of life (QoL) is a critical outcome measure for cochlear implant (CI) users, yet the association between sociodemographic disparities, respondent type, and QoL remains under-explored in the Saudi Arabian context.

Assessment of Anthropogenic Pollen Signals in Anatolian Lake Records During the Beyşehir Occupation Phase [PDF]
PlantsUnderstanding the extent to which anthropogenic activity shapes vegetation dynamics is a central challenge in palaeoecology. In the Eastern Mediterranean, pollen-based studies have traditionally identified human impact through qualitative interpretations

Coccolith clumped isotopes reveal modest rather than extreme northern high latitude amplification during the Miocene [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsAccurate predictions of the future climate response to CO2 depend on the ability of climate models to simulate past analog warmer climates, like the Miocene.

Application of porosity logs for cyclostratigraphic analysis in the absence of gamma ray logs [PDF]
Scientific ReportsHigh-resolution cyclostratigraphic and sequence stratigraphic analyses are often compromised and lead to incorrect interpretations due to the unavailability or critical, proven errors in the reference Gamma-Ray (GR) and Density (RHOB) logs in hydrocarbon

Assessing the Validity of Negative High Field Strength-Element Anomalies as a Proxy for Archaean Subduction: Evidence from the Ben Strome Complex, NW Scotland [PDF]
Geosciences, 2018 The relative depletion of high field strength elements (HFSE), such as Nb, Ta and Ti, on normalised trace-element plots is a geochemical proxy routinely used to fingerprint magmatic processes linked to Phanerozoic subduction.
