Global acceleration in rates of vegetation change over the past 18,000 years
Global vegetation over the past 18,000 years has been transformed first by the climate
changes that accompanied the last deglaciation and again by increasing human pressures; …

Europe's lost forests: a pollen-based synthesis for the last 11,000 years
Abstract 8000 years ago, prior to Neolithic agriculture, Europe was mostly a wooded
continent. Since then, its forest cover has been progressively fragmented, so that today it …

Contributions of Quaternary botany to modern ecology and biogeography
HJB Birks - Plant Ecology & Diversity, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
ABSTRACT Quaternary (last 2.6 million years) botany involves studying plant megafossils
(eg tree stumps), macrofossils (eg seeds, leaves), and microfossils (eg pollen, spores) …

Holocene fire activity during low-natural flammability periods reveals scale-dependent cultural human-fire relationships in Europe
Fire is a natural component of global biogeochemical cycles and closely related to changes
in human land use. Whereas climate-fuel relationships seem to drive both global and …
