Late Pleistocene Sciurids from Kokoweef Cave
… (Sciuridae) were identified from the late Pleistocene-early Holocene Kokoweef Cave paleofauna. This fauna was the first documentation of T. minimus, T. palmeri and S. townsendii from the Pleistocene of the Mohave Desert. The 30-ft sedimentary sequence apparently recorded the mid-to …

Pleistocene Terraces of The Atlantic Coastal Plain
<p>Pleistocene terraces on the Atlantic Coastal Plain have been recognized since the late 1800's, and from four to seven terraces have been described throughout Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida. These terraces are now named Brandywine, Coharie, Sunderland, Wicomico, …

Plio-pleistocene tectonic evolution of Southern Sardinia
… structures and the kinematic related to the Plio-Pleistocene tectonics in southern Sardinia, although tectonic activity during the latest million years is long since known in the Island. Then, the general aim of this research is to improve the understanding of the recent geological evolution of …

The Pleistocene History of the Birmingham District
… contains a complex sequence of Middle to Late Pleistocene sediments attributed to at least three lowland glaciations (Anglian, Wolstonian, and Devensian) as well as a variety of non-glacial sediments. Understanding the age of the Pleistocene glacial deposits is critical to reconstructing the …

The evolution and diversification of Pleistocene Homo
… diverse and geographically expansive Pleistocene Homo fossil record continues to be a topic of debate. Recent fossil discoveries have highlighted the diversity, as well as the difficulty of identifying evolutionary relationships, within our lineage. Previous studies have focused on …

Pliocene-Pleistocene Radiolarian Investigations of the Equatorial Oceans
… a detailed palaeoenvironmental study of the Plio-Pleistocene Olduvai magnetosubchron (1.95-1.79Ma) of the equatorial Indo-Pacific Oceans. A number of radiolarian tools are used as palaeoceanographic proxies, including the recognition of distinct glacial and interglacial assemblages, which form the …

Pleistocene geology of northern Kidder county, North Dakota
<p>The topography of northern Kidder County is due almost entirely to glacial deposition. This are is covered with glacial drift up to a thickness of at least 269 feet which was deposited during Wisconsin ice advances. Seventy-five percent of the area has stagnation moraine which typically exhibits …

Faunal and human biogeography during the Terminal Pleistocene.
… decennia up to millennia, the latter part of the Pleistocene (60-10 thousand years ago) that involved large and irregular climate changes in Europe was investigated. This project aimed to gain better understanding of the biogeographical processes of the mammals in this period. This was done by …

Assessing Holocene and late Pleistocene geomagnetic dipole field variability
Palaeomagnetic studies of continuous geological archives and archaeological artefacts are required to reconstruct geomagnetic field changes beyond the range of historical observations. In this thesis I assess the reliability of sedimentary palaeomagnetic data and Holocene dipole field …
