DOI: 10.1016/j.palaeo.2017.10.008

Abstract: Abstract The well-known South African mid-Pleistocene site of Elandsfontein has yielded an abundance of fossil fauna and artifacts (ca. 1 to 0.6 million years ago) and has produced hominin fossils, specifically a calvarium and mandibular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.palaeo.2019.109487

Abstract: Abstract The Mid Pleistocene Transition (MPT, ~1000–700 ka) represents the latest major change in the climate system, when the climate variability changed from ~ 41 to 100 kyr cycles. Changes are reflected in different components of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2020.106614

Abstract: Abstract Knowledge about the Early and Middle Pleistocene hominin record of China is steadily increasing owing to the on-going implementation of palaeoanthropological surveys and excavations. Yet, relatively little attention has been paid to the effects… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2021.106918

Abstract: Abstract Sea-ice is believed to be an important control on climatic changes through the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MPT; 0.6–1.2 Ma). However, the low resolution/short timescale of existing reconstructions prevents a full evaluation of these dynamics. Here, diatom… read more here.
