The basis for the interpretation of fossil-pollen assemblages in terms vegetation and climate is present-day relationship to pollen rain. Detailed modern spectra from Tibetan Plateau are described here explore between rain vegetation. Two hundred thirty four (234) surface samples were collected moss polsters, top soil, lake sediments forests, shrublands, shrub meadows, steppes, deserts Plateau....

Subfossil remains of insects and branchiopod crustaceans (Cladocera Notostraca) found in three late Pleistocene deposits the Novosibirsk region vicinity village Suzun have been described. The calibrated radiocarbon dates for these were 24,893–25,966 cal BP (Suzun-1), 20,379–20,699 (Suzun-2), 27,693–28,126 (Nizhny Suzun), which correspond to onset marine isotope stage 2 (MIS 2). insect assemblag...

In the framework of a project studying karst region Western Mecsek Mts in 2018–19, new paleokarst cavity containing abundant vertebrate remains was found near village Bükkösd, extending sparse Quaternary record region. Th e herpetofauna is represented by salamandrid, true frog, lacertid lizards and colubrid snakes, latter dominating material. poor mammal material shows that area inhabited insec...

The quality of the surrounding landscape matrix often determines biodiversity pattern remaining natural habitat fragments. Dispersal organisms depends mostly on species traits related to mobility and contrast between fragment matrix. Therefore, variation in composition among fragments, i.e. beta-diversity, can also be affected by quality. In our study, we focused structurally complex forest ste...

Aim The aim was to characterize fire regimes and estimate regime parameters (area burnt, size, intensity, season, patchiness pyrodiversity) at broad spatial scales using remotely sensed individual-fire data. Location Western part of the Palaearctic realm (i.e., Europe, North Africa Near East). Time period 2001–2021. Methods Initially, I divided study area into eight large ecoregions based on th...

Les transitions archeologiques se caracterisent notamment par d’importants changements demographiques et societaux, qui peuvent avoir des repercussions a l’echelle du genome individus. Ainsi, la transition Neolithique l’âge Bronze s’est accompagnee de contributions genomiques massives d’eleveurs originaires steppes pontico-caspiennes aux populations locales, ces dernieres resultant d’interactio...
