The Hermies-Ruyaulcourt site (Pas-de-Calais), investigated within the “Canal Seine-Nord Europe” project, provides an exceptional record of pedosedimentary dynamics throughout the last interglacial-glacial cycle (Eemian–Weichselian)....

This study provides a comprehensive investigation of the sedimentary and tectonic evolution of Kalloni Gulf, a land-locked island embayment in the Northeast Aegean Sea. Information from a high-resolution seismic dataset was used to investigate the La...

A first attempt has been made to systematically present the achievements of several archaeozoological fields in Bulgaria: archaeomalacology, archaeoichthyology, archaeoherpetology, archaeornithology, and archaeomammalogy. The main results and some of...

The archaeological site of Charneca do Fratel, in Vila Velha de Ródão, Portugal, is a fortification that is radiocarbon-dated from the third millennium BCE. The archaeological fieldwork in 1987 revealed the first Chalcolithic settlement...

Low-altitude palaeoglaciation in Atlantic mountain regions provides important insights into past climatic conditions and moisture dynamics during the Last Glacial Cycle. This study presents the first quantitative reconstruction of palaeoglaciers in S...

Aeolian deposits are globally recognized as sensitive recorders of Quaternary climate and environmental change, exemplified by the continuous loess sequences of the Chinese Loess Plateau in northern China, which document paleoclimatic and paleoenviro...

Severe floods such as in the Ahr valley in July 2021 are one of the leading causes of fatalities from natural disaster. Riverine and lacustrine floods are caused by a sudden flux of water masses from heavy rainfall or snowmelts. These surface water r...

Horses were widely distributed in North America during the Pleistocene epoch and their fossil remains are common in sedimentary deposits of this age. Despite their rich fossil record, the systematics and taxonomy of North American Pleistocene horses...

This report presents the advantages of using drone-photographic scanning technology as a method for creating 3D documentation and 3D databases of rock-cut monuments with astronomical elements. Through this modern technology, together with specialized...

A multiproxy study of a new Pleistocene locality at Ivantzevo, Moscow Region, was conducted to reconstruct paleoenvironments from the Middle Pleistocene to the Last Pleniglacial. Lacustrine deposits and peat accumulated in a wetland within a fluviogl...
