Climatic evolution in the Australian region over the last 94 ka-spanning human occupancy-, and unveiling the Last Glacial Maximum
P De Deckker, M Moros, K Perner, T Blanz… - Quaternary Science …, 2020 - Elsevier
The Quaternary is well known for being a period of the geological record that saw significant
and alternating climatic fluctuations. Here, we concentrate on the last 94 millennia that saw …

[HTML][HTML] Intensified organic carbon burial on the Australian shelf after the Middle Pleistocene transition
Abstract The Middle Pleistocene Transition (MPT) represents a major change in Earth's
climate state, exemplified by the switch from obliquity-dominated to∼ 100-kyr …

Indian Ocean glacial deoxygenation and respired carbon accumulation during mid-late Quaternary ice ages
Reconstructions of ocean oxygenation are critical for understanding the role of respired
carbon storage in regulating atmospheric CO2. Independent sediment redox proxies are …

Life in the “dead heart” of Australia: The geohistory of the Australian deserts and its impact on genetic diversity of arid zone lizards
Abstract Aim The Australian deserts are home to a remarkable diversity of taxa that might
appear to have evolved in the absence of topographic and physical barriers to dispersal. In …

Paleobotany reframes the fiery debate on Australia's rainforest edges
P Wilf, RM Kooyman - New Phytologist, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
The tall eucalypt forests (TEFs) of the Australian tropics are often portrayed as threatened by
'invasive'neighboring rainforests, requiring 'protective'burning. This framing overlooks that …

Accelerated mafic weathering in Southeast Asia linked to late Neogene cooling
Arc-continent collision in Southeast Asia during the Neogene may have driven global
cooling through chemical weathering of freshly exposed ophiolites resulting in atmospheric …

Development of the Leeuwin Current on the northwest shelf of Australia through the Pliocene-Pleistocene period
Abstract Although the Leeuwin Current (LC) is thought to play a pivotal role in climatic and
oceanic systems of the western Australian region, how the LC developed through the …

Middle Pleistocene re-organization of Australian monsoon
The sensitivity of the Australian Monsoon to changing climate boundary conditions remains
controversial due to limited understanding of forcing processes and past variability. Here, we …
