The Middle Pleistocene human metatarsal from Sedia del Diavolo (Rome, Italy)

Scientific Reports
The peopling of Europe during the Middle Pleistocene is a debated topic among paleoanthropologists. Some authors suggest the coexistence of multiple human lineages in this period, while others propose a single evolving lineage from Homo heidelbergensis ...

A multi‐proxy record of climate variability during the Loch Lomond Stadial (GS‐1) at Old Buckenham Mere, East England, UK

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Northwest Europe experienced high‐amplitude climate change at the onset and end of the Younger Dryas (YD; ca 12 800–11 600 cal a BP), a crucial period to develop our understanding of natural climate dynamics. European palaeoclimatological records generally suggest a bipartite structure of the YD, potentially due to a northward retreat of the ...

The geodynamic and limnological evolution of Balkan Lake Ohrid, possibly the oldest extant lake in Europe

Boreas, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 1-26, January 2023., 2023
Studies of the upper 447 m of the DEEP site sediment succession from central Lake Ohrid, Balkan Peninsula, North Macedonia and Albania provided important insights into the regional climate history and evolutionary dynamics since permanent lacustrine conditions established at 1.36 million years ago (Ma).

Strontium isotope stratigraphy: LOWESS version 3: best fit to the marine Sr-isotope curve for 0-509 Ma and accompanying look-up table for deriving numerical age [PDF]

, 2001
An improved and updated version of the statistical LOWESS fit to the marine 87Sr/86Sr record and a revised look-up table (V3:10/99; available from j.mcarthur@ucl.ac.uk) based upon it enables straightforward conversion of 87Sr/86Sr to numerical age, and ...

Sedimentary ancient DNA from caves: Challenges and opportunities

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Caves are unique depositional environments that hold great potential for long‐term preservation of DNA due to their typically cool and stable internal climates, buffered from external climate extremes. Bones from caves have long been recognised as an excellent source of ancient DNA, yet the potential for DNA preservation in cave sediments ...

Millennial‐scale oscillations and an environmental regime shift around the Middle to Late Holocene transition in the North Atlantic region based on a multiproxy record from Isfjorden, West Spitsbergen

Boreas, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 42-59, January 2023., 2023
Palynological and sedimentological analyses were performed on the sediment core HH16‐1205‐GC retrieved from the central Isfjorden, West Spitsbergen. The sequence, which spans the last 7000 years, revealed an overall cooling trend with an important climate shift between 4.4 and 3.8 cal. ka BP, in addition to millennial‐scale oscillations.

Long‐term hydrologic connectivity on the Australian dryland margins: Evidence from the Willandra Lakes World Heritage Area over the last 60 ky

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The semi‐arid Australian continental inland is increasingly subject to climatic extremes such as drought and flooding. Combined with the exceptionally low topographic relief characteristic of this region, hydroclimatic extremes can have an enormous impact on the land surface.

Thermally Optimised Raman Spectroscopy for Safe Analysis of Wall Paintings and Application to Lorenzetti's Masterpiece

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
A portable dual‐wavelength Raman system (exc. 785 and 1064 nm) based on a four‐channel innovative probe for safe characterisation of artworks is presented. This instrument enables non‐contact real‐time monitoring of the temperature rise and laser power modulation to prevent overheating during Raman spectroscopy, through direct emissivity and ...
