Climate change and postglacial human dispersals in southeast Asia.
Modern humans have been living in Island Southeast Asia (ISEA) for at least 50,000 years. Largely because of the influence of linguistic studies, however, which have a shallow time depth, the attention of archaeologists and geneticists has usually been focused on the last 6,000 years--in particular, on a proposed Neolithic dispersal from China and Taiwan. Here we use complete mitochondrial DNA ...
متن کاملRecent climatic change and catastrophic geomorphic processes in mountain environments
Climatic warming during the last 100-150 years has resulted in a significant glacier ice loss from mountainous areas of the world. Certain natural processes which pose hazards to people and development in these areas have accelerated as a result of this recent deglaciation. These include glacier avalanches, landslides and slope instability caused by glacier debuttressing, and outburst floods fr...
متن کاملGeomorphic Evidence for Martian Ground Ice and Climate Change
Introduction: Recent results from gamma-ray and neutron spectrometers on Mars Odyssey indicate the presence of a hydrogen-rich layer tens of centimeters thick in the uppermost meter in high latitudes (>60 ̊) on Mars [1]. This hydrogen-rich layer correlates to regions of ice stability [2]. Thus, the subsurface hydrogen is thought to be water ice constituting 35+/15% by weight near the north and s...
متن کاملSymposium: Development and Cognitive Architecture
Introduction This symposium examines interrelationships between fundamental aspects of neural/cerebral development and later cognitive architecture. Topics will include: the role of DNA in plasticity and organization; the benefits of innate, domain-specific constraints; as well as a defense of distributed functional modularity. Theoretical positions on these issues are advanced and defended. Re...
متن کاملSymposium: Biofilms: Development and Control
Bacterial biofilms create a number of serious problems for industrial fluid processing operations. Mechanical blockages, impedance of heat transfer processes, and biodeterioration of the components of metallic and polymeric systems result in billions of dollars in losses each year. Product spoilage and possible risks to public health are also consequences of biofilm-mediated contamination. Fund...
