Response of Remote Tropical West Pacific Islands to Climate Variability: A Multiproxy Record From T‐Lake, Palau, Spanning the Early Holocene to Present

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lake sediments are natural archives of past environmental dynamics and how these systems have responded to past climate variability. Sediment geochemistry, governed by local geology and climate processes, is unique to each lake‐catchment and geochemical proxies must be validated for each study site.

Purification of hydroxyproline for small-scale radiocarbon dating verified using archaeological bone collagen

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science
We developed a novel technique for the accurate radiocarbon dating of single amino acids from archaeological human and animal remains. Despite the extensive use of bulk collagen for radiocarbon dating of archaeological bones, obtaining accurate dates can

Safety pharmacology of acute mescaline administration in healthy participants

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Psychedelics, including mescaline, may serve as novel treatments for depression and anxiety. However, data is scarce on the safety of mescaline. Methods The present pooled analysis included two double‐blind, randomized, placebo‐controlled studies with a total of 48 participants and 96 mescaline administrations. Single oral‐dose administrations (n =

Early Holocene jökulhlaup chronology and deglaciation dynamics in central Iceland

Boreas, EarlyView.
Glacial lake outburst floods (jökulhlaups) have occurred throughout the Quaternary in glaciated regions worldwide. Reconstructing flood chronology yields insight into deglaciation processes, environmental change and the role of extreme events in landscape evolution.

A North Greenland‐wide in situ cosmogenic 14C ice sheet chronology since the Lateglacial

Boreas, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the glacial history of the North Greenland Ice Sheet is crucial due to its high sensitivity to climate change. However, because the ice sheet in this region is predominantly cold‐based, resulting in low erosion rates, using 10Be exposure dating to establish reliable ice sheet chronologies has proven very challenging due to nuclide ...

Late‐Holocene evolution of a small Sub‐Arctic glacier, Gljúfurárjökull (Tröllaskagi, northern Iceland)

Boreas, EarlyView.
Gljúfurárjökull, located on the Tröllaskagi Peninsula in northern Iceland, is a small glacier approximately 3.8 km in length. This study analyses the glacier's evolution through a combination of methods including: (i) geomorphological mapping, (ii) Cosmic‐Ray Exposure (CRE) dating, (iii) lichenometry and (iv) palaeoglacier reconstruction (volume ...

Bomb radiocarbon determines absolute age of adult fin whales, and validates use of earplug growth bands for age determination

Frontiers in Marine Science
Baleen whales are one of the few vertebrate taxa for which there are no confirmed estimates of longevity or methods of age determination. Lamina counts in the waxy earplug are assumed to represent age, but ageing accuracy is completely unknown.

Untangling nutrient co‐regulation of ombrotrophic peatland development

Boreas, EarlyView.
Multi‐method (FTIR, FT‐NIR and TGA) approaches characterizing the organic peat constituents at Holcroft Moss reveal a record of switches that reflect broadly hydroclimate variability governing the decomposition patterns. There are periods, however, where hydroclimate does not fully explain the variability observed and instead changes appear linked to ...
