Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Quaternary Science"
DOI: 10.1002/jqs.2943
Abstract: This contribution reviews the evidence for technological continuity and change (both gradual and abrupt) among the classic Magdalenian, Azilian, Asturian and non-coastal Mesolithic culture-adaptive traditions against the backdrop of environmental change across the Pleistocene–Holocene (i.e.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.3150
Abstract: Oceanic island flora is vulnerable to future climate warming, which is likely to promote changes in vegetation composition, and invasion of non‐native species. Sub‐Antarctic islands are predicted to experience rapid warming during the next century;… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jsames.2018.04.012
Abstract: Abstract Very few excavated sequences in southern South America provide an approximation to the environmental evolution covering the segment Late Pleistocene-Holocene. Here we present the taphonomic analysis and paleoenvironmental reconstruction based on the small mammal… read more here.
