Abstract Predictions for the southwestern US with warming often suggest increased aridity. We investigate the sedimentary record of the Miocene Climate Optimum and Transition (MCO and MCT; ∼17–14 Ma) in northern New Mexico to understand the impact of warmer global temperatures and higher pCO2 on southwestern US hydroclimate. The MCO and MCT comprised a

Estimating the frequency of volcanic ash clouds over northern Europe [PDF]
Fine ash produced during explosive volcanic eruptions can be dispersed over a vast area, where it poses a threat to aviation, human health and infrastructure. Here, we focus on northern Europe, which lies in the principal transport direction for volcanic

Refining the Eruption Chronology of Atitlán Caldera Through Zircon Double‐Dating
Abstract Precise dating of Quaternary volcanism is vital for risk mitigation, understanding volcano‐climate interactions, and deciphering the evolution of large silicic magmatic systems. The Atitlán caldera in Guatemala has experienced major eruptions that challenge radiometric dating techniques and complicate eruption chronology in this densely ...

Abstract This study provides insights into the tectonic evolution of the normal Mt Morrone Fault System (MMFS) in Central Italy and highlights the utility of multidisciplinary approaches in reconstructing the seismic history of dormant fault systems. The MMFS comprises two parallel normal faults that traverse the western slope of Mt.

Tephrochronology of New Volcanic Ash
When a volcano eruptes, its pyroclastics are deposited over the surface of the earth, so the depositional features of the pyroclastics tell us the history of volcanic activities. Therefore, if we wish to investigate the tephrochronology of pyroclastics which spread over the surface of the earth, the following works should be done.1) At first, we must ...

Optically-stimulated luminescence profiling and dating of historic agricultural terraces in Catalonia (Spain) [PDF]
Dating agricultural terraces is a notoriously difficult problem for archaeologists. The frequent occurrence of residual material in terrace soils and the potential for post-depositional disturbance mean that conventional artefactual and lab-based dating ...

Examination of Late Palaeolithic archaeological sites in northern Europe for the preservation of cryptotephra layers [PDF]
We report the first major study of cryptotephra (non-visible volcanic ash layers) on Late Palaeolithic archaeological sites in northern Europe. Examination of 34 sites dating from the Last Termination reveals seven with identifiable cryptotephra layers ...
