Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Subfossil insect communities from the Quartz Creek site provide a detailed record of both Late Pleistocene steppe–tundra and Holocene boreal forest ecosystems in central Yukon Territory, Canada. Fifteen Pleistocene assemblages (marine isotope stages [MIS] 4 to 2) are dominated by steppe–tundra and dry‐tundra taxa, particularly the weevils ...

Guidelines for seismic sedimentologic study in non-marine postrift basins
Petroleum Exploration and Development, 2012 This study summarizes the research experiences of non-marine seismic sedimentology in recent years in China and uses Qijia area, Songliao Basin, as a template to establish general guidelines for seismic sedimentology.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Cadí Massif (42°17′09″ N, 1°38′11″ E; 2649 m a.s.l.) in the southeastern Pyrenees preserves clear evidence of Late Pleistocene glaciation, although previous research has focused almost exclusively on its northern slope. By contrast, the southern slope has remained largely unexplored.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Stable isotope analyses of freshwater mollusc carbonate can record environmental conditions at the time of mineralisation, yet this technique remains underused in British Middle Pleistocene fluvial sequences, despite the abundance of fossil shell material in these deposits.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Worldwide, lacustrine ecosystems are threatened by eutrophication and deoxygenation. Both processes are driven by the combined effects of human activities and climate change. Understanding the pre‐anthropogenic nexus between warming, eutrophication, deoxygenation, and related feedback is essential to determine how lakes respond to rapid ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Central Australia's ngarrawa, or ‘mound springs’, are unique hydrological systems that serve as some of the only near‐permanent sources of water and continuous sediment deposition in Australia's arid interior. As such, they hold significant potential as palaeo‐climate and ‐environmental archives in a region where many aspects of past climate ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Volcanic ash (tephra) provides an important chronostratigraphic framework for correlating Quaternary records. In ultra‐distal ( > $\gt $1500 km) settings such as ice cores and marine sediments, deposits are typically preserved as cryptotephra composed of glass shards ≤ 20 μ $\le 20\,\mu
