Iran's Climatic Change in the Holocene
Introduction Paleoclimatics studies can respond the many uncertainties about past climate change; an issue that is being studied seriously in the world but less attention has been paid in Iran. The Late Quaternary can be considered as Holocene. Holocene, which spans over 11,000 years ago; In general, it is considered as a period with relatively warm and stable climatic conditions. However, rec...
متن کاملHolocene environmental change and vegetation contraction in the Sonoran Desert
Two types of microtopographic features (plant scar mounds and plant scar depressions) on surfaces of barren desert pavements provide a unique record of the former presence of large perennial plants. Evidence of bioturbation by burrowing animals extends more than I m beneath each type of plant scar, indicating that both features originated as large bioturbation mounds. Formation of bioturbation ...
متن کاملLate Holocene climatic changes in Garhwal Himalaya
Geochemical study of a 3.55 m long lake sediment core from the Badanital Lake (Garhwal Himalaya) reveals Late Holocene centennial-scale climatic changes. The ecosystem of the tectonically formed lake seems to be controlled by natural and anthropogenic factors. The imprints of four major global events, e.g. 4.2 ka event, Medieval Warm Period (MWP), Little Ice Age (LIA) and modern warming are obs...
متن کاملA genetic record of population isolation in pocket gophers during Holocene climatic change.
A long-standing question in Quaternary paleontology is whether climate-induced, population-level phenotypic change is a result of large-scale migration or evolution in isolation. To directly measure genetic variation through time, ancient DNA and morphologic variation was measured over 2,400 years in a Holocene sequence of pocket gophers (Thomomys talpoides) from Lamar Cave, Yellowstone Nationa...
متن کاملHolocene climatic change and the development of the lake-effect snowbelt in Michigan, USA
Lake-effect snow is an important constraint on ecological and socio-economic systems near the North American Great Lakes. Little is known about the Holocene history of lake-effect snowbelts, and it is difficult to decipher how lake-effect snowfall abundance affected ecosystem development. We conducted oxygen-isotope analysis of calcite in lake-sediment cores from northern Lower Michigan to infe...
