ODP Site 1078 situated under the coast of Angola provides the first record of the vegetation
history for Angola. The upper 11 m of the core covers the past 30 thousand years, which has …

A new pollen sequence from the Lake Mbalang (7° 19´ N, 13° 44´ E, 1110 m asl) located on
the eastern Adamawa plateau, in Central Cameroon, is presented in this paper to analyze …

The Earth has experienced large changes in global and regional climates over the past one
million years. Understanding processes and feedbacks that control those past …

Reconstructions of ecosystem dynamics in tropical East Africa during the latest Pleistocene
and the Holocene provide important long-term ecological insights, but so far, only a few …

In tropical Africa, forests and savannas are the two most widespread biomes and potentially
represent alternative stable states with a divergent species composition. A classic, but …

Climate change is expected to modify intra-seasonal rainfall variability, arising from shifts in
rainfall frequency, intensity and seasonality. These intra-seasonal changes are likely to have …

Abstract The study of Late Pleistocene vegetation reconstruction in southeastern Africa is
helpful to understand the process and driving mechanism of regional climate change. In this …

Pollen records from Lake Malawi, Africa spanning the last 135kyr show substantial and
abrupt vegetation response to multiple episodes of extreme aridity between 135 and 75ka …

We present a multi-proxy study of an upper Paleocene-lower Eocene succession from the
paleo-equatorial region. The study is carried out on a coal-bearing, shallow-marine …
