DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2020.116164
Abstract: Abstract Our understanding of past climate conditions largely comes from paleoclimate proxies, such as oxygen isotope ratios ( δ 18 Oc) in marine fossils. The marine δ 18 Oc signal primarily reflects a mixture of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quaint.2019.04.004
Abstract: Abstract To test past climate change in central Korea in terms of latitudinal differences over the Korean Peninsula, we reconstructed relative abundances between C3 and C4 plants in Hanam area based on sedimentary total organic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2017.09.002
Abstract: Abstract Relying on the ability of pollen assemblages to differentiate among elevationally stratified vegetation zones, we assess the potential of a modern pollen-climate dataset from the Darjeeling area, eastern Himalaya, in past climate reconstructions. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rstb.2019.0212
Abstract: Ancient DNA provides a powerful means to investigate the timing, rate and extent of population declines caused by extrinsic factors, such as past climate change and human activities. One species probably affected by both these… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.366.6471.1296
Abstract: Researchers are using DNA preserved for tens of thousands of years in ancient sediments to show how Arctic plants responded to past climate shifts—hinting at how they might respond in the future. Arctic lakes have… read more here.
