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; …

No‐analog climates and shifting realized niches during the late quaternary: implications for 21st‐century predictions by species distribution models
Empirically derived species distributions models (SDM s) are increasingly relied upon to
forecast species vulnerabilities to future climate change. However, many of the assumptions …

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) …

Millennial-scale climate variability over land overprinted by ocean temperature fluctuations
Variations in regional temperature have widespread implications for society, but our
understanding of the amplitude and origin of long-term natural variability is insufficient for …
