15th conference of the International Work Group for Palaeoethnobotany - Wilhelmshaven, Germany, May 31 - June 5, 2010 ; programme and abstracts
(TERRA NOSTRA - Schriften der GeoUnion Alfred-Wegener-Stiftung; 2010,2)The understanding of early agrarian economies and their impact on landscapes and natural environments has become a major goal of many large-scale projects. The shaping of cultural landscapes by the spread of agriculture, ... -
Constraining the Variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation During the Holocene
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2019)There is a converging body of evidence supporting a measurable slowdown of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) as climate warms and Northern Hemisphere ice sheets inexorably shrink. Within this context, ... -
High‐resolution facies analysis of a coastal sabkha in the eastern Gulf of Salwa (Qatar): A spatio‐temporal reconstruction
(Sedimentology, 2021-10-12)Abstract Sabkhas are key landforms along the southern coast of the Arabian Gulf and represent modern analogues for depositional and diagenetic processes controlling properties and quality of ancient hydrocarbon‐bearing ... -
Holocene Interactions Between Glacier Retreat, Sea Ice Formation, and Atlantic Water Advection at the Inner Northeast Greenland Continental Shelf
(Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, 2020-11-11)During the past four decades significant decrease in Arctic sea ice and a dramatic ice mass loss of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS) has been coincident with global warming and an increase in atmospheric CO2. In Northeast ... -
Holocene lake‐level evolution of Lake Tiefer See, NE Germany, caused by climate and land cover changes
(Boreas, 2021-11-17)Lake‐level reconstructions are a key tool in hydro‐climate reconstructions, based on the assumption that lake‐level changes primarily reflect climatic changes. Although it is known that land cover changes can affect ... -
Holocene variability in sea‐ice conditions in the eastern Baffin Bay‐Labrador Sea – A north–south biomarker transect study
(Boreas, 2022-02-10)Reconstructions of sea‐surface conditions during the Holocene were achieved using three sediment cores from northeastern Baffin Bay (GeoB19948‐3 and GeoB19927‐3) and the Labrador Sea (GeoB19905‐1) along a north–south ... -
How well does known seismicity between the Lower Rhine Graben and southern North Sea reflect future earthquake activity?
(Historical Earthquakes, Paleoseismology, Neotectonics and Seismic Hazard: New Insights and Suggested Procedures, 2020)Since the 14th century, moderate seismic activity with 14 earthquakes of magnitude MW≥5.0 occurred in Western Europe in a region extending from the Lower Rhine Graben (LRG) to the southern North Sea. In this paper, we ... -
Ice Age‐Holocene Similarity of Foraminifera‐Bound Nitrogen Isotope Ratios in the Eastern Equatorial Pacific
(Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, 2021-05-19)Bulk sediment δ15N records from the eastern tropical Pacific (ETP) extending back to the last ice age most often show low glacial δ15N, then a deglacial δ15N maximum, followed by a gradual decline to a late Holocene δ15N ... -
Late Pleistocene to Holocene vegetation and climate changes in northwestern Chukotka (Far East Russia) deduced from lakes Ilirney and Rauchuagytgyn pollen records
(Boreas, 2021-03-31)This paper presents two new pollen records and quantitative climate reconstructions from northern Chukotka documenting environmental changes over the last 27.9 ka. Open tundra‐ and steppe‐like habitats dominated between ... -
Lateglacial and Holocene environmental history of the central Kola region, northwestern Russia revealed by a sediment succession from Lake Imandra
(Boreas, 2020)Bolshaya Imandra, the northern sub-basin of Lake Imandra, was investigated by a hydro-acoustic survey followed by sediment coring down to the acoustic basement. The sediment record was analysed by a combined physical, ... -
Moore als Archive – ein Inventar aus den „Fercher Bergen“ bei Potsdam (Brandenburg)
(TELMA - Berichte der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Moor- und Torfkunde; Band 47; 2017)Abstract: The function of mires as landscape historical archives is differently assessed in the peatland literature. An example of five mires is presented here, which are investigated by stratigraphy, palynology and ... -
One Hundred Thousand Years of Geomagnetic Field Evolution
(Reviews of Geophysics, 2019)Paleomagnetic records from sediments, archeological artifacts, and lava flows provide the foundation for studying geomagnetic field changes over 0–100 ka. Late Quaternary time-varying spherical harmonic models for 0–100 ka ... -
Pollenanalytische Rekonstruktion der Vegetations- und Landnutzungsgeschichte des südlichen Ostallgäus (Bayern)
(TELMA - Berichte der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Moor- und Torfkunde; Band 43; 2013)Abstract: A radiocarbon dated pollen diagram of the Spitalmoos reveals the holocene vegetation and landscape development in the formerly glaciated area of the Eastern Allgäu near the alpine border. The investigated ... -
Regionale Beiträge zur Geomorphologie - Vorträge des Ferdinand von Richthofen-Symposiums, Berlin 1983

Reversals in Temperature‐Precipitation Correlations in the Northern Hemisphere Extratropics During the Holocene
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2022-11-11)Future precipitation levels remain uncertain because climate models have struggled to reproduce observed variations in temperature‐precipitation correlations. Our analyses of Holocene proxy‐based temperature‐precipitation ... -
Testing the consistency of Holocene and Last Glacial Maximum spatial correlations in temperature proxy records
(Journal of Quaternary Science, 2020)Holocene temperature proxy records are commonly used in quantitative synthesis and model-data comparisons. However, comparing correlations between time series from records collected in proximity to one another with the ... -
Untersuchungen zur Entwicklung der vorzeitlichen Morphodynamik im Tibesti-Gebirge (Zentralsahara) und in Tunesien - Arbeit aus der Forschungsstation Bardai/Tibesti
(Im Selbstverl. des Instit. für Physische Geographie der Freien Universität Berlin, Berlin, 1979)Research results are presented from two areas: the Tibesti Mountains (Central Sahara) and Tunisia. In the first study area geomorphological and sedimentological methods were used to reconstruct the origin of two depressions. ... -
