Vertical zonation of testate amoebae in the Elatia Mires, northern Greece : palaeoecological evidence for a wetland response to recent climate change or autogenic processes? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The Elatia Mires of northern Greece are unique ecosystems of high conservation value. The mires are climatically marginal and may be sensitive to changing hydroclimate, while northern Greece has experienced a significant increase in aridity since the ...

ABSTRACT There has been a dearth of archaeological research on atolls in the central‐eastern Caroline Islands of Micronesia. This has limited our understanding of pre‐contact subsistence and settlement strategies in these more marginal and remote environments, particularly in regards to zooarchaeological data.
