The Holocene formation of inland sand dunes in the North of Schleswig-Holstein (Northern Germany) and its palaeoenvironmental significance
Open AccessChristian Stolz, Rainer Lehmann et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2026
Geomorphological investigations were carried out in the Süderlügum inland dune field and at two existing dune outcrops near Enge-Sande (North Frisia). The focus was on the age of the dunes, possible anthropogenic or climatically induced reactivation phases and their triggers against the backdrop of a palaeoenvironmental reconstruction. To this end, corings and outcrops were created, which were described and classified in terms of soil geography. …
Late glacial to Holocene fluvial dynamics in the Upper Rhine alluvial plain, France
Open AccessMubarak Abdulkarim, Laurent Schmitt et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2024
High-resolution sedimentological and geochronological investigations of paleochannel systems in the Ried Central d'Alsace (northeastern France) allow for the reconstruction of the late glacial and Holocene fluvial evolution of this section of the Upper Rhine alluvial plain. During the Oldest Dryas, the landscape featured a dominant braided Rhine system and, to a lesser extent, a braided Fecht system. The shift to the Bølling-Allerød saw a narrowi…
Germanic Rampart or Roman Encampment?—New Geoarchaeological Evidence at the Roman Conflict Site at Kalkriese (NW‐Germany)
Open AccessJoachim W Härtling, Andreas Stele et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2024
Kalkriese, near Osnabrueck (NW Germany), is considered the location of the ‘Battle of Varus’, where a coalition of Germanic tribes, under the leadership of Arminius, defeated three Legions under the command of Varus in 9 ad . Roman coinage and remains of military equipment prove that the Oberesch site at Kalkriese saw military operations between Germanic tribes and the Roman legions during Early Imperial times, but the sequence and magnitude of t…
Paleoenvironmental changes in the eastern Kumtag Desert, northwestern China since the late Pleistocene
Open AccessHaoze Song, Xiaoping Yang et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2023
Sedimentary records from the Kumtag (also known as Kumtagh) Desert (KMD) in northwestern China are investigated to better understand Late Quaternary paleoenvironmental changes in this hyper-arid region. Presented here are the results of probably the first systematic survey of sedimentary sequences from the KMD, with the chronology determined by the optically stimulated luminescence dating. The variation of sedimentary facies, supported by granula…
Luminescence chronology of fluvial and aeolian deposits from the Emirate of Sharjah, UAE
Open AccessDaniela Mueller, Kira Raith et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2023
Quaternary environments on the Arabian Peninsula shifted between pronounced arid conditions and phases of increased rainfall, which had a profound impact on Earth surface processes. However, while aeolian sediment dynamics are reasonably well understood, there is a lack of knowledge with regard to variability in the fluvial systems. Presented here are the findings from several locations within wadi drainage systems to the west of the Hajar Mounta…
Colluvial sediments originating from past land-use activities in the Erzgebirge Mountains, Central Europe: Occurrence, Properties, and Historic Environmental Implications
Open AccessK Kaiser, Johann Friedrich Tolksdorf et al.ARTICLEArchaeological and Anthropological…2021Cited by: 8References: 68
Colluvial sediments originating from soil erosion on slopes have proven to constitute significant evidence for tracing past human impact on mountain landscapes. In the Central European Erzgebirge (Ore) Mountains, colluvial sediments are associated with specific landforms (footslopes, slope flattenings, dells) and cover a share of 11% (11,905 ha) of the regional soil landscape. Thirteen pedosedimentary sections with colluvial layers were investiga…
Lake and inland dunes as interconnected Systems: The story of Lake Tresssee and an adjacent dune field (Schleswig-Holstein, North Germany)
Open AccessChristian Stolz, Magdalena Suchora et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2020References: 6
The specific aim of the study was to investigate how four adjacent geomorphological systems – a lake, a dune field, a small alluvial fan and a slope system – responded to the same impacts. Lake Tresssee is a shallow lake in the North of Germany (Schleswig-Holstein). During the Holocene, the lake’s water surface declined drastically, predominately as a consequence of human impact. The adjacent inland dune field shows several traces of former sand …
Historical classification of ridge and furrow cultivation at selected locations in Northern and central Germany using a multi-dating approach and historical sources

Evidence for Bronze Age and Medieval tin placer mining in the Erzgebirge mountains, Saxony (Germany)
Open AccessJohann Friedrich Tolksdorf, Frank Schröder et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2019Cited by: 11References: 10
Tin is an essential raw material both for the copper–tin alloys developed during the Early Bronze Age and for the casting of tableware in the Medieval period. Secondary geological deposits in the form of placers (cassiterite) provide easily accessible sources but have often been reworked several times during land‐use history. In fact, evidence for the earliest phase of tin mining during the Bronze Age has not yet been confirmed for any area in Eu…
The influence of historic land-use changes on hillslope erosion and sediment redistribution
Open AccessAnnegret Larsen, Vincent Robin et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2016Cited by: 2References: 7
Agricultural societies around the world have dramatically altered the natural landscape, particularly through accelerated soil erosion. The expansion of agricultural land use into steeper headwater areas during the Medieval period in central Europe is known to have caused large increases in soil erosion and sediment redistribution downstream. Although land-use practices changed and improved following this initial impact, it is currently unknown w…

The formation of alluvial fans and young floodplain deposits in the Lieser catchment, Eifel Mountains, western German Uplands: A study of soil erosion budgeting
Open AccessChristian Stolz, Jörg Grünert et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2011Cited by: 2References: 6
This study deals with the exploration and spatiotemporal quantification of the young Holocene, nearly skeleton-free floodplain sediments of the Lieser River, a tributary of the Mosel River in the Eifel Mts. The deposits are primarily a consequence of anthropogenic-triggered soil erosion in the catchment. To observe the phenomenon of corresponding soil erosion on multiple levels two small alluvial fans of tributary catchments were investigated. Fo…
