Lake-level fluctuations and Late Quaternary climate change in the Central Kenya Rift
Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Rekonstruktion von Klima in historischen Zeiten im tropischen Ostafrika. Nach einer Übersicht über die heutigen klimatischen Bedingungen der Tropen und den Besonderheiten des ostafrikanischen Klimas, werden die Möglichkeiten der Klimarekonstruktion anhand von …

A seascape genetics approach to exploring the phylogeographic response of marine fishes to late Quaternary climate change
… will flourish or face extinction under a new climate regime is largely determined by its dispersal ability, its adaptive capacity or some combination of these processes. These processes have also played important roles in the evolutionary histories of species, ultimately shaping their …

The late quaternary history of Southern hemisphere mediterranean climate regions in the Western Cape, South Africa, and Southwestern Australia
… investigate the complex interaction between Late Quaternary climate change, the influence of fluctuating sea levels and the impact of human interaction with the environments in question and provide a regional picture of these interactions.

Resolving abrupt palaeoenvironmental changes in a lake sediment sequence from Ioannina, northwest Greece
… of our understanding of ecological responses to Quaternary climate change. Lake Ioannina (NW Greece) is one such archive, with a vegetation record which spans multiple glacial-interglacial cycles. This PhD builds upon earlier work at Ioannina, seeking to characterise last glacial millennial-scale …

Provenance and sedimentology of Red Clay and loess in northern China
… one of the best terrestrial archives of Neogene-Quaternary climate change, and their formation has been linked to the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau, the progressive aridification of East Asia and the onset of and changes in the East Asian monsoon. In the present study, the sediment provenance was …

Late Quaternary landscape evolution and environmental change in Charwell Basin, South Island, New Zealand
… of the Charwell River, and a series of late Quaternary loess-mantled alluvial terraces and terrace remnants that have been uplifted and translocated from their sediment source due to strike-slip motion along the Hope Fault which bounds the basin to its immediate north. The aim of this study …
